I dug up this thread from ancient times, as people still seem to enjoy replying to it. Back then the Stun Baton and Gaderiffi suc.... er... weren't very good. My weapons today are a very different collection.

• Vibroblade: 61 - 198 2.6 (11/22/11)


• Gaderiffi Baton: 178 - 301 3.4 (54/32/15)


• Stun Baton: 122 - 180 2.5 (15/44/37)
  

wierd how come no one using stun batons and gaedriffi batons?

1. Gaedriffi baton

151-281

wounds 34%

HAM 61 37 19

3.5 att speed

2.Stun Baton

118-181

wounds 17.3%

HAM 20 51 45

2.5 att speed

seems to provide random stun

Cute Raph, several servers difference and we have nearly identical weapons...

Though your VB is better than mine and my Gad is slightly better than yours.

Was your Damage Slice on the VB 34% from a 145Max pre Slice? I have yet to get a single 34% slice on any of my weapons.

Speed sliced Vibroblade 42-142dmg @ 1.9 speed 13/25/13 HAM costs. Specials only cost me a total of 67 HAM and it's easy to go around and peg those Stormtroopers with. I do lairs and such using a Gaffi Stick 127-215 @ 2.6 speed for the faster damage output to finish them off quickly.

I use a 95-220 2.4 speed Ryyk for straight up damage and an overpowering force, for precise hits and good HAM costs i use my 90-200 2.3 speed Curved sword, for composite armor and stun damage i use the stun baton 120-195 2.5 speed. Workin on gettin some rancor teeth to try and make some better and more unique swords

These are stats wthout powerups, cause I don't want to have to replace them anytime soon.

Curved at 187max 1.9spd

Stun 190max 2.2spd

Gaffi 280max 2.9spd

Haven't gotten a vibro yet, thats my next purchase.

Ryyk speed 1.8, dmg 74-176, Made by D-Tox he is the man wherever he is.

Cant remember the ham cost. Love this blade.

Much like Raph, i swap my weapons in and out of battle with appropriate macros for each.

Preferred, Vibro and Ryyk. Mostdamge the quickest Gafi.

Most used, Rancor Curved Sword.

I keep power ups for HAM reduction in my pack.

I am a Zabrack, inert regen capabilities so I can use a Vibroblade or a Curved sword without concern of my HAM becoming unmangeable in most cases. When needed i have Novice Med with some amazing Stim B's on my toolbar macro'd so ti will /healself, even if i am selecting my next target as the foe i face drops.

Curved sword, 2.3 speed 93-207 damage, sliced for damage

I carry a Rykk (for style), stun baton (for armor), vibroblade (for ham), and gad baton (default) with me at all times.

Depending on what I'm fighting I'll alternate between what I want to use.

In pvp it's almost always the stun baton, so many 'composite newbs' as I call them.

I carry the vibroblade, gaderiffi, ryyk, curved and stun baton. None of my weapons are particularly uber, but they aren't that bad either. I try to alternate weapons, but I find myself using the gaderiffi for things that don't have armor or very high kinetic resists, and the stun baton for the rest if they have the stun vulnerabilities.

Those two weapons have worked far better for me than the others, which saddens me a bit because they don't give the classic fencer/swordsman feel. The curved sword is really fun though because it is fast and elegant, but it doesn't compile near the damage as the gaffi.

I only use specials to open (bleed) and to finish (body3) for the most part, so this may play a factor in my preference. Both the gaffi (health) and the stun baton (mind) would kill me if I tried to spam specials.

It almost seems to me that performing a special also leaves you momentarilymore vulnerable to a counter strike as well, so spamming may be a double whammy to your HAM bars. Has anyone else sensed this?

gaffi stick 128-218 3.5 wound is 30 sumtin,ham is fairly low on all but health. ya. its sliced in case you couldnt guess
