Best 2 handed weapon? (for me, help me decide)

[Casimir]

FAIL: 2h build is speed build, NOT str. Retire your char and try again, for 2h build, get strengh to the multiple of 3 above your choice sword (eg, for nodachi, get 12 str). And then all other points into agility. If you build strengh, you will die to: Other 2h, throwers, xbows, archers, ninjas, polearms, cav. So, everyone. But you go ahead and build strengh, Im sure you know what your doing 

Another completely misinformed post about str builds.


Clearly you are yet to meet Slegg, He's pure Str 2hr using a bar mace and he gets very good K:Ds

Thing is, he wants to use swords. Strength builds generally favors the crush-through weapons

katana is overated. I have 8 althletics and people with long weapons can still backpeddle dodge my attacks.

people use katana for 2 reasons
1. its cool
2. its good secondary weap if you have low wpf because its fast.
3. duel servers.

best 2h sword is german or danish, hands down now because flamberge only have 152 length on right swings only.

I said 2-hander  not 2 hander sword, any 2 hander will do.

Make up your mind ;<

says in OP "Best 2 handed sword?"

swords are weak vs shield users.

I just got bored of owning so hard that I stopped playing that character.

really depends how you like to fight

I like spamming, I dont manuel very well, but im ok at it i usualy block 2/3 the attacks.

I only have 9 agility, and thats all im gonna put in it. I have 15 str and im gonna build on that, so im not sure if i would like a weapon that needs alot of agility to work properly, Im rather fond of the highlander claymore and german greatsword, now. But what has the best all rounded, reach and speed, but alot of damage? (i think claymore but, maybe the german) Also, should I sell my great long axe (loads of people died because of it), or my elite scimitar and kite shield?

The first character I made when I first started playing c-rpg was along the same lines. I had the similar idea that for a melee monster you needed high str... boy was I wrong. Sure, I would blast shields and people apart but I was slow as fuck and hence a fairly easy target outside of groups goin solo.

So, I would strongly suggest you don't go over 16 str with that character as that's all you'll need for any armor/weps you're going to wear unless you want a Flamberge which is 18 str.

Every 3 agility points gives you an option of wep master and you want wep master as high as you can get it for the WPF points it grants. Every weapon you choose you're going to need WPF to be effective. Be it 1h 2h/pa archery or throwing.

I generally only get as much STR as I need for my item requirements which isn't too low anyway due to heavy STR req. on 2h weps.


For my set-up, I really enjoy the German Greatsword and Great-Maul. I find I can swing my maul quick enough while side stepping to get enough kills while also still have enough STR to break through parries and knock bitches down.

You cant manual block at all New Wind, but you do teamhit a lot.......


I wasnt gonna share the secret, but FAR and AWAY the best of all 2h weapons are: Maul (yes the cheap wooden hammer) and Spiked Mace (Crushthrough, knockdown, superspeed, looks good)

Heavy bastard and longsword are both very good swords:

GREATSWORDS: All swords bigger than longsword are GREAT, if you like being considered an easykill. So many samurais now with nodachi, and loads of greatswords around: TOO SLOW: I kill them with my 50 wpf in 2h on my archer, let alone on my dedicated 2h: Katana, either bastard, longsword, spiked mace: All of these dismantle the greatswords, 2h axe users.

So if you cant be fastest, get crushthrough, its SO hard for someone who blocks by instinc to NOT just put the overhead block up, its just a natural movement.

Grey is so OP, god created the universe just so he could be blown away by Grey's OPness.

I recommend long iron mace. Loom it and love it. Maybe also get a great sword for lightly armored foes.

[Braeden]

What I would recommend is going to the duel server when it is busy and just picking up weapons off the ground.  Eventually you'll find something you like.

Of course, you should also begin amassing an amazing collection of weapons with new increased income.

Oh, and strength builds are good, but you will need to learn how to block.  Again, duel server it up.

[Casimir]

The fact that Slegg is Templar_Daymun clearly alludes you, all though depending on how long you've been around Mr. original it may affect whether you recognise that name...

[Rubicon]

Anyway, all 2h are viable once they are heirloomed properly
