Swordsman Archive

and in the neighborhood of 5.4 speed, -31 accuracy mod.

I would really like to see some more swords, since I became a swordsman because I like using swords and not hammers and/or axes. the syche looks very cool, hopefully we'll be able to use them soon (too bad it will be destroyed in about a month of solid use because it will requirea repair kit. I HOPE if they do release this weapon it can never be destroyed since i got through a hammer a month easy..)

In the past i've paid 10K for the following stats on a hammer.

dmg: 137-463, 5.4 attack, 114 Heath, 54, action, 32 mind (it is 3.6 attack sliced, with a 15% dmg powerup that reduces the HAM cost on health)

10K was a fair price for this hammer, although I would've liked to see it cheaper i was content with those specs at that price.

Cleavers, i've never seen better then 100-215, 3.4 attack speed. it's ashame, because it's one of the fewdetailedlookingswords the swordsman can get. i would pay 20K+ for a cleaver that did about 125-380, 2.9 attack.

2 handed curved, the best sword we can get, I find at around 62-242, 2.6 attack speed. I'm not happy with the stats, and barly use the sword at a high swordsman lvl. Since a battlemaster has nice speed stats, the hammer isn't much slower then this sword despite the difference in speed. I would love to see the stats improve so that I could start using a sword again.

But, as most of us, I'm a swordsman stuck using a hammer.

Heavy Swordsman - 2, 4, 3, 2

What I would really like to see is a weaponsmith that can make our swords with advanced cores. I would also love to know if we can use krayt tissue in our weapons. And if so how much we need for each weapon. I am willing to pay top dollar if the weapon is worth it. I will even tip a weaponsmith some money if I can have a very special weapons made. Anyway thats just me.

A note on the question about 2 handed axes. I use them and right now it is a lot better then the cleaver I think. The better accuracy was mentioned which is very good before you have mastered the finesse line. It is a few tenth of a second slower than the cleaver but it does more damage. It has also lower HAM costs which makes it really good with powerful attacks/heavy armour.

The vibro axe isn't really that bad either but it isn't used because it is not really good at anything. It is not the fastest, not the most damaging etc. It's usually better to switch between the extremes, I think, depending on the situation.
