Thread: Wielding two swords
as cool as dual wielding would be--if anyone gets it, it should be fencers. Our weapons are much too huge to be wielding 2 at the same time
as for def. vs. knockdown: balance will never be the strong point of someone wielding a sword as tall as they are.
Absolutely, we are not a finesse class like fencers, we deal damage through sheer brute force, using massive heavy blades, there's no way we'd be able to wield two at once. Well, maybe we lizards and wookiees could, but not you pu-ny hu-maans ![]()
Definitely a fencer skill, not a heavy swordsman skill for sure.
Though I would like to see us get more in the ways of state altering attacks, hitting someone in the head repeatedly with a 25lb explosive sledgehammer is bound to at least stun them once or twice.
i think duel wielding for weapons should be a hybrid profession. that takes the trees 1-hand and 2-hand in novice brawler. because really fencers do not have the streagth to wield 2 weapons since one arm is always doing teh work while the other is just by his side to keep his balance and stuff.
2-hand doesn't desrve it ether since our class ifs about picking up anything we can wield with 2-hands and hit stuff as hard as we can with it.
but any way dual wielding figting is diffrent then fencer fighting. when wielding two weapons you have less balance and do not dodge as much you would more likly block or counter attack more often. also the moves would be diffrent and the class would be mainly based on huge hitting area attacks, combo attacks and maybe a kd ttack in there some where. but it's weakness is not having any state changes and having no blees except one that is from a weapon.
