Swordsman Archive

Hey, I'm about to hit Novice Swordsman (going for master swordsman and ranger) and I wanted to know what type of damage and delay I should be looking for on Cleavers, two hand curved swords and PHs. My current sword is a two hand curved sword, 2.2 delay and about 234 damage, I don't like the HAM cost, hits my action for about 74. I would like something a little lower than the HAM cost, but around the same damage and delay (If not better ) I have about 600k in credits, but I'm looking to only spend a fraction of that on my weaons. Could I get some help with this please?

-Thanks

Buy some powerups. You can get ones that will affect everything you mentioned:reduce HAM costs, raise damage, reduce speed.

Yes, but what is the average damage of the two handed cleavers and PHs? I don't want to buy one sword to find out the average is much much better. You know?

A good 2hCurved is about 2.6s 246max unsliced

A good powerhammer is about 5.4s 560max

I know very little about Cleavers. Except that I don't ever plan to use one unless the stats change.

err, typo. I meant to say..

A good powerhammer is 5.4s 460max unsliced.


keep in mind that the stats I posted above are "good". Depending on the WS, they can get alot better. Especially PH's.

I'm currently getting 5.3s 473max on my PH's

Commando,

Hey cohlti, Im on Bria server, and well My whole guild is melee stuff, cept for tka, we dont like those guys. Im looking for a weaponsmith to contract out to. I think I may have just found my guy.

Stats vary by sever and weaponsmith. My current power hammer is the best I have seen / owned:

Speed = 5.1
Min Damage =180
Max Damage =714

This is with a 32% damage slice and using 32% Health / 16% Max Damage powerups.
