Cwjakesteel has forgotten about the many enemies which are physical immune and some which are magic immune or extremely heavily armored. Singular damage types are only effective when you can pass the specific defense you're targetting; having a mixed weapon allows you access to both so you can at least fight everything. Attack avoidance isn't hard; you don't have to do 3x damage to be effective.

I keep a mixed as a backup just in case.
