duel weilding swords and a bow and arrow on my back..or have the bow in my hand and 2 short swords on my hip for close combat
I'm a big fan of the staff as well, but I have a softspot for spears as well since my RL first name means "One who carries a spear". ^_^ Generally speaking, though, I get attached to a specific weapon, not a type of weapon. Like my EverQuest character having a Great Staff of the Four Winds. It often sneaks up on me, which weapon I end up becoming attached to.
In fact, that's something I'm excited about in HJ...that I don't have to keep trading out a favorite weapon for something "better".

Mine generally depends on the character. What style of attacks they utilize, their build, how conspicuous do they want to be?... those kind of things. For Czidvar (also my new and most favoritest DR character) He uses a Sabre, Scimitar (not at the same time... yet), and a Light Crossbow. My Paladin on the other hand uses a bastard sword and a tower shield (but he's a paladin, of course he does) because it fits with my vision of the character. I use many other weapons with both of them and all of my other characters as well (though this is more of a mechanics and training thing,) though concentrate on those certain ones.
Any weapon can be cool when the right character is cutting you in half with it!
Although for a more concrete answer, I have always enjoyed the Spear, very underrated and underused (though most games don't make them a real viable option) weapon.

I tend to rotate weapons from character to character. Last MMO I played I used maces, then here in Oblivion I used axes for the most part. It tends to be whatever doesn't seem cliche to me when I'm creating my character.
I'm kinda leaning to those hand dagger things you see in some of the screens...katars...I think? Just know it's the weapons that Voldo's using in Soul Caliber.
I'd love to see spears and whips in game though !

Maybe a transforming weapon? I came up with an idea for an alt to play, and I have a specific weapon in mind for her. Picture this: a naive, cheerful, kind of ditzy 12 year old girl who also happens to be a witch (probably Wizard/Necromancer). She seems harmless enough, but when someone starts trouble, she turns her broom into a gigantic scythe that's practicaly twice her size and carves up her opponent with amazing skill, smiling innocently the whole time.
