We always played it as a great equalizer. So even on
a large needle a Fireblade would do 3d6.

As a player I would not cast a Fireblade on a
greatsword, unless I needed to do magical damage. A
Bladesharp is much more effective. 3d6 = 10-11 damage
vs 2d8+4 = 13 damage + 20% to hit. In addition, it is
imposible to poison any blade with Fireblade cast on
it.
