It's because of equipment like this and the other human-focused mechanics in Innistrad that I want to make a human deck with four Blighted Agent's in it. The story would be that a terrified village, in their desperation, turned to a group of shady mercenaries from Mirrodin for protection.

I will not mention Greatsword. I will not mention Greatsword.
Equip costs over 3 scare me a little, but I guess it could be pretty good in a human deck. Gaining at least 4 life per turn could change the game. Did I hear someone say Invisible Stalker? Sounds like a good idea to me.
I'll see if I can make a human deck and put this, Sharpened Pitchfork and Silver-inlaid Dagger on an Unruly Mob, just for flavor.

Of course it gives lifelink! If a human chops off a limb with one of these, they'll cook it up real nice for you. But if a zombie does, you're not going to want to eat that.

Really good in Human decks, o.k. for sealed and draft in other decks.

This is a high pick for limited.
The power boost is sick when equipped to a flier,
And lifelink plus the power boost on a Human can swing the game in your favour pretty quickly.

This card helped me get 3rd place in the prerelease. Adding 3 power to a creature is just awesome no matter what type it is, and this with Thraben Militia is just mean.

invisible stalker is the obvious choice, I put that and a bonds of faith on mine after getting the boost from an elder cathar and...heck yes, I'll take eight if you drop eight.

Without equipped to a human, it's a Greatsword.
Equipped to one, it's 2/3 of Loxodon Warhammer, and edging on LW's brokenness.
Pre-release, i went up against someone running a very similar deck to mine, the match he won was due to getting this out early. He finished it with 56 life..

Possibly a bit slow for a fast Human deck, but the lifelink and power boost are both quite nice. A poor man's Loxodon Warhammer (without the Trample...)
I definitely agree with the whole Blighted Agent or Invisible Stalker idea though.
3/5
