It's one of the first things I noticed after the patch as I own a masterwork one. So I wouldn't complain when they keep it like that, but it's clear that they have to make it more expensive.

It's balanced, look at the price. -Ujin

Don't be a prick, you gonna attach this to your "Ujin wants to have OP items " theory too ?

500 price difference doesn't justify the damage in 6 pierce, obviously.

yeah, those two weapons are not balanced at all.

The arming is clearly superior to the nordic.  I think the nordic should get a point or two more cut damage, that would balance them a bit more AND keep it in line with the other arming/nordic swords in the 1h category (KAS has better pierce, NCS has better cut for example.)
