I've personally found that medium sized weapons, like the Bastard Sword or Halberd, deal a reasonably comperable amount of riposte damage to a dagger class weapon on top of being good "in your face" weapons, reasonably fast but with a satisfying dmg/strike, esp. the halberd. And honestly as long as you don't neglect your endurace you can still have a decent medium shield and a good, full light armor set (I esp. like dingy) without foregoing the fast roll.

Also, personally, watching 4.5 feet of steel burrow through a silver knight is a lot more pleasing than 8 inches of same.
