Title: Does weapon weight affect glancing?
Post by: kasMVC on June 23, 2013, 05:40:48 pm
I always feel like a heavier weapon glances less. Any data to back up this anecdote?

The only thing I've ever heard weapon weight effecting (other than knockdown) is your recovery against a blocked attack. Heavier weapons have a lower chance to force you into the recovery animation after an enemy blocks your swing.

It would make sense that a heavier weapon would glance less, but I have never heard of this being an actual mechanic.

Generally Heavier weapons have higher damage or blunt/pierce damage.

That is why they tend to bounce less.
