   Murgath as a character is smug and arrogant, he trains hard and is very boisterous. He believes weakness is a downfall, this is seen in other cards of his where he breaks through even magical defenses. So his philosophy is to avoid weakness - do what it takes to not have something an opponent can exploit. The "holy swords" bit is a joke of his character, since as a bad guy he's "cursed" with a holy sword that attempts to thwart his attempts to do evil. So he may not possess a weakness, but he cannot fully utilize his strength. In this case, avoid is used as the opposite of seek - make sure weakness, and holy swords, do not find you.

   I actually disagree with the statements above and do think it's a clear joke about him being tied to Banefall? Like in a vacuum, his credo as a villain is to avoid weakness of any kind, but his OTHER credo now is that he never should have picked up Banefall. Murgath himself has no specific reason to avoid being struck by a holy sword, at least any more than any other person would. Edit: It also occurs to me in hindsight that this is a generic board game subreddit rather than the RDI-specific one, so I suspect a lot of people here aren't aware that Murgath is a villain who is "blessed" with holding a holy sword that is constantly trying to undo the damage he does. (The joke being that he's the opposite of a hero who got stuck with a cursed, evil weapon.)

   Or, "avoid doing things that could lead to weakness". "Avoid weakness" is the sort of thing someone might say as an excuse for why they don't want to become emotionally close with anyone, because that could eventually become a weakness.

   No, it's a joke in that one part of the phrase is a big statement about how you should go about being evil, and that is to avoid weakness. It would be like a businessman saying you must be ready to seize opportunities or take risks. The second part is much more practical, but is also about "avoiding" something. The contrast of a big statement about how to live with a much smaller practical statement about not getting stabbed with holy swords is where the joke comes from.

   “Avoid” is the verb. “Avoid weakness” means “don’t be weak”.
