It ' s an act of religious symbolism , which doesn ' t have any real effects , positive or negative . I ' m personally against it in the case of Christians , since the New Testament makes it clear that nonJewish believers are not bound to it . However , Jewish people who want to do it shouldn ' t be forbidden because some people want to blame their blade ' s poor quality on not having a portable sheath for it . <| sep |> They almost never have spell damage in the early game , so it ' s usually just a worse Light ' s Justice . y o u c a n s i t o n w e a p o n s u n t i l y o u a r e a b l e t o u s e t h e m p r o p e r l y w h y d o p e o p l ekeepsayingthisstupidshit . They can get 1 3 damage hit off the damn thing before it gets harrisoned and it ' s still better than Light ' s Justice . That ' s not a particularly tall order and the 1 mana cost allows them to equip it on any turn where they have spare mana .
