Well the ability to block, chamber and utilize footwork renders the need for one-shot crutching moot, so.... no.
understanding sarcasm is the best side of you.
you continue to give playstyle lessons to everyone but... who saw you playing? when you saw me playing? curious...
every weapon have his use. in tight brawls and with good pike/shielders cover, a mauler can destroy half a team in seconds. a swordsman can not (if the opponents are wake enough to see the incoming swings).
but yes i forgot your skill meter. running around in light armor with a 1h weapon without shield, doing some chambers show should make you happy.
using a maul efficiently versus fast longswords or LHB users or lolite spamitar spammers require decent timing, footwork and no errors. and if you use your recent 20/21 lolhammer spoken build only by spamming overheads, you'll have hard time versus decent opponents.
i'm not saying great mauls require impressive skills but making mistakes with that heavy thing is a sure and quick death. maulers can change the tide of the battle in few seconds with
proper lucky hits but since opponents tend to gank you on sight, require teamwork.
