Swordsman Archive

Again some people have ignored the points that all of us made. so let me try and make it clearer "katana" is NOT a HEAVY SWORD, No-daichi IS. so dont use the argument that you can use a kantana + a less blade = 2 handed HEAVY SWORDMAN. it does not! if you can find an example that anybody have ever used either 2 claymore or 2 no-daichi at once then i will conceed. Please actualy read what other people post and not just ignore them and then make an argument for it when somebody has pointed out why your argument would not work.

As it has been said before on this forum if we all actualy bother to read it. Light saber is not any form of weapon that we can equal to. the light saber blade is a sort of plasma laser which is nearly wieghtless and thus can not be consider as "heavy sword" again please actualy read everybody's post rather than make another argument that we all have gone over

We all agree that swordman should be "raw power" duel wielding will not equal to more power only more speed and less power if we all be realisitic about it. I do agree if we dont get anything else offered then we should take it since we do suck alot more with damage migration coming into play. I think most of us have said "give us a BIG SWORD" and heck give us a proper specails, i dont even have two handed sweep and spin attack on my tool bar.

Well, if Fencer gets something like dual-wield, at the very least Swordsman should get something as well. Something more than yet another big weapon - a compensating item.

Now, maybe that'd be something like getting an energy shield or possibly even the ability to use something like a sword-block on blaster shots. I mean, lightsabers can't possibly be the only technology that can absorb the energy of blaster fire. Why not coat the blade of your sword with a small shield like the ones in the Gungan shields, so that it does stop blaster fire?

Swordsman should be the 2nd most offensive class, only following Pikeman. I don't see any problems with them getting some advantage to offset the huge advantages already given to the Teras Kasi and Fencer classes...

it would be nice to have 2 swords....we could fight back and forth like one hand should get it... no 2hand should get it.... i think the dev should do is create a elite class like how Creature handler is done... but do off the brawler...like 0440 to open a novice dual weilder... then have it be its own sperate class because if fencer get it they we will complain and if we get fencer will complain... thats my thoughts on how it should be down... that would make it equal for both classes and allow a new melee elite profession... thats just my thoughts on it... lol some1 might of posted soemthing like what i said... i got threw 2 pages of this... and just desided to post on it that it.... lol cya

Yes

Fencers are wielders of light weapons and pinpoint strikes.

Swordsmen are just that, masters of the sword. We swing big swords in hopes of hitting something.

Yes and No

I can see us dual weilding a 2-handed curved sword (I know, its two handed, but come on its tiny) Since we are 2-handed swordsmen and the cruved sword we have, has the potential to be single hand weilded due to it's size. Maybe if they give us DW with jsut that weapon. People talking about hammers... NO

i would love to see duel weilding but if youthink about it fencer doesnt make sense. fencers are supposed to be lively and quick and nearly unhittable while swordsmen are slower but can take a beating like its nothing and do more damage so we could have certain weapons that we can duel weild but we suffer either a penalty to speed but more damage, penalty to damage but bonus to speed, or penalty to all defenses but speed and damage go up

... YES!!!!

2-handed means you hold a sword with 2 hands....giving a little info to ll you idiots out there

i am fully for duel wielding being implemented into the game....but not our proffesion.....this is somthing for fencer

yes in a way

but using two onehanded weapons designated for our class.

i think it would be a bit to hard to carry around two powerhammers

YES

Two handed weapon xp not 2 handed sword xp. any 2 handed weapon goes.

absolutely NOT!

while we shouldnt have HUGE swords 5 time sour own size and stuff......we ARE heavy swordsman.....2 hand swordsman. Our weapons should require both hands to use.

dual wielding should be left to pistols and fencers.........this is not soemhting that would fit int his class, our weaponry is too hard to use in ONE hand, let alone 2 in 2 different hands.

have any of oyu ever tried swinging a "heavy" scimitar PROFICIENTLY in just one hand? It CAN be done, but certainly not 2

and having 2 power hammers would just be laughable.

sorry fellas, this isnt for us

No. This is fencer stuff. Two-handeds wield one weapon using two hands. No extra hands left over.
