I was brushing up on my Yuan-Ti when I noticed this weapon enhancement. I must have glazed over it a dozen times, but when I read the description, it caught my attention.

I had always believed that the bigger the market price, the weaker the enhancement. There are few +2 abilities that are as good as two +1, and only two +3 abilities I could think of (Shadow Striking and Wrathful Healing) that are worth three +1. But on a high-critting weapon, this one might turn me around.

Has anyone ever used this ability (or its good/lawful/chaotic variants) in game? How does it measure up?

Honestly, I never found the higher + weapons to be weak.
(Clouting, Speed, Superior Dispelling, Roaring, Brilliant Energy, Dancing)

But I do consider the 3.0 enchantment Wrathfull Healing to be outright abusive, when used in a min-max build (I do a spirited charge with my +1 Wrathfull Healing Lance while smiting and Power Attacking.)

I also generally dislike crit stategies, they tend to have severe weaknesses.

But there is a Heavenly Burst weapone enchatnment in BOED, you might be interested in.
