Title: Does this sound rediculous?
Post by: Erathsmus on July 03, 2011, 12:11:58 am
Was on Siege last night, was using a plain staff as a peasant. Was getting a respectable score, and someone said, "Try using a barmace, it is unbalanced and is slow." Do people think the staff is really better than the barmace? O.o The weapon stun on the staff is pretty bad, the dmg is bad, but the speed and reach are decent. If this is true, why would you spend gold on a barmace in the first place?

If anyone has any other weapons (under 1k), that are considered OP, please throw it out here for discussion : ]

I love the scythe, but it's stab makes it kinda meh for use with a shield. I think 4/5 of everyone I shield poke with it, it just bumps them. Also very very challenging to use with teammates  nearby, or walls nearby.

Great dmg, but it's speed and reach kinda hinder it in most duel situations. Has anyone tried using the practice lance for any real builds? lol

There's this thing called face hugging, which sort of negates range and speed a little bit ;). As for the practice lance it's fun to use with 7+ athletics by bull rushing your targets

practice lance's reach does not match its models if I remember correctly. It makes it quite annoying.

The 0 slot hammer is by far the most used <1k gold weapon.
