Thread: best made 2h weapons
--- Flynn and Gaffyn + The Brothers McDonnell ---
Just want to put in some props for Karballo on his swords. I bought 5 or 6 from him last week, what with good quality two-handed curved swords being a rarity. I bought a couple for speed and others for damage and I must say I've been very pleased. If you're a swordsman on Corbantis, give him a visit on Talus.
Wow! I had a customer?
Holy Moses...
Well, should have a LOT more coming soon - thanks to the latest spawn of Dolovite Iron at 870 Unit Toughness (highest I've seen so far), I've got enough metal to make probably a thousand or so swords...
Woo hoo!
A customer!
The swords I am using atm (made by Homerr on AHazi, right outside coronet):
Power hammer spd 5.4, dam 137-465 HAM 115/37/25
2hd curved sword spd 2.6, dam 60-242 HAM 30/63/36
These are the unsliced numbers...
My two hand weapons are:
2 hand curved: 2.6spd 74-295
power hammer: 3.5spd 133-465
power hammer:5.4spd 162-567
2 hand cleaver: 2.7spd 103-233
all sliced
My 2h Curved Sword on Bria was made by Origins. It's max damage is 249 with a base speed of 2.5 sliced to 1.8. This is the best I've been able to find on Bria but I have been looking for some specialcomponents (RancorsTeeth & Nym's Vibro Motors) to get a better one custom made by him.

i just gotton a two-handed curved sword yesterday that had
60-249 speed of 2.5 and mod i think of +8's
and i got a nice damage slice on it that boosted it a max of 333 it was a 34% damage slice the best ihave ever gotton
also my best power hammer has a speed of 3.7 after a speed slice of like 32% that was the best slice i have ever gotton on a PH everything else was more like 23% to damage on the best ph i have ever found on my server now they all stink cuz no one knows how to make them on tarquanis

I'm very, very happy. =) I don't think I've ever seen stats that high although they probably exist.
One big problem though. I am using some old resources that I got while I was still grinding weaponsmith. I didn't know how good they were at the time and I"m nearly out of them. I only have enough to make 50 or so swords like that. So I'm going to have to stretch them out and make them count.
By the way, that was with 995sr steel, 967sr polymer and 870ut dolovite. I spent a long time trying to max out my advanced sword cores. I finally came up with cores that were 45-43 damage with -.60 speed.

By the way. I managed to make an amazing 2h sword schematic on Test Center:

Just got 20k of 994 SR steel, and built some myself. Sorry to say, but I yielded to the temptation and did a factory run insted of "by hand," since I figured I'll only get some 450 swords out of that. Sounds like a lot, but when you figure I'll only be using swords with a 35% damage or speed slice, and also considering I want to save 3/4 of that in case a higher UT dolovite iron spawns sometime in the future, doing it by hand really minimizes my chances of getting that.
The full stats (and I'm guessing this should match fairly closely with the two swords mentioned earlier):
Using the 994 SR Steel, 967 SR Polymer, and 870 UT Dolovite Iron (84% success on the ACS), I get the following:
98%
Attack Speed: 2.5
Damage: 63-250
Wound: 39.9%
Range: +8/8/8
HAM: 29/62/34
Using the 944 SR Polymer, but keeping everything else the same, I get the following:
98%
Attack Speed: 2.5
Damage: 63-249
Wound: 39.9%
Range: +8/8/8
HAM: 29/62/34
...i.e., everything identical except for a 1 point difference in max damage.
I'll try to put the entire thing together and post the entire study in a bit, but this was definitely exciting...
