[Stats] Long Espada Eslanova increase cut-damage from 27 to 29

[Gorath]

Side sword should be nerfed because its model is so damned attractive.  Totally unbalanced compared to other one handers.

I think that's what they did.  Devs are racist against good looking models!

I played with the Espada since the day it got into cRPG.

it is fine.

You need more athletics dude.Footwork is the key to successfull stabs

I think it should be raised to 28, just to make it a liiiiiiittle more attractive(Almost nobody uses it and pretty much nobody uses it constantly)

Fine, nerf LEE stab damage then.  The point is an imbalance internally.

When there's an internal imbalance, it's between cut and thrust swords. Most people use elite scim, langes messer and and the "long" swords for a reason. I don't say that thrust is weak (it's actually much better than cut) but the many glances you get, especially as a noob, make people choose named swords instead of the Eslavonas or the Side Sword.

Well alot of that is basic math.

cut = 3 attacks
thrust = 1

Therefore a boost to cut damage is an increase to 75% of your attacking power, while a boost to thrust is only 25%.

Please, don't

[Gorath]

Please, don't

Well I personally don't think that nerfing the LEE is a good idea, but people are opposed to buffing the SS to fix the imbalance so....

That's not even getting into the others such as Broad Short Sword (or really any short sword) and other imbalances.

[Digglez]

no reason to buff this already popular and overused weapon

[Gorath]

I see more Italians than LEE to be honest.
