I think you should try out Italian Falchion:

price: 4,490
weapon length: 70
weight: 1
difficulty: 11
speed rating: 101
weapon length: 70
thrust damage: 21 pierce
swing damage: 34 cut
slots: 1

It is fast and it does really good damage. Only downside is the really short lenght, but ýou just need to go and facehug ppl. :D
I mean seriously. I'm quite sure there's no other 1-handed (not heirloomed) weapon that packs such a good punch with a speed like that.

Spamming is an art (seriously, if you know how and when to spam, it's quite effective, even against good players).

I dont like the scim because it lacks a stab and I think it's over-used anyways.

You think right my friend, you think right.

There is no reason to use the falchion instead of steel pick.

Style! Italian Falchion is IMO the best looking 1-h -weapon in this mod. :D. Besides, Italian Falchion has lower price, plus a little advantage on speed and reach. Those reasons are good enough for me. :D

32p vs 34c? No way. If you want to take it for style, OK. Pierce damage hurt.

Infante, you forget that the OP is looking for FAST 1-handers, so in that light Italian falchion shines over the Steel Pick. Naturally I agree that Steel Pick is propably a better weapon, but it just isn't too fast (and it costs twice as much as the IF  :wink: ).

I doubt the OP would be able to tell the difference between a 99 speed rating weapon in action and a 101 speed rating weapon in action. Both are very fast.

I have em all, tried em all and I'm still using the knightly arming sword.

It's 97 speed, but you're not going to outspam anyone anyway. If you can outspam someone with a 101 speed 1h, you can do it with a 97 speed 1h too.

The thrust on the KAS hurts. Badly. Especially when placed in the face area. The long espada does the stabbing job even better, but I would classify that more as a specialist sword. The low cut damage on swings means you have to stab more often, which is harder to do than just swinging your weapon.

The KAS is also very useable from horseback (if you ever want to play mounted that is) and can be used perfectly fine without a shield (swashbucklin style).

I wouldn't use any other sword than the knightly arming sword (or the long espada eslavona when I feel like it).

The problem is even if you are number 1 in NA you are still only number 467 in EU or the worst in AUS(number 17)

The KAS is definitely a solid weapon. I still feel the +2 speed and +1 stab on the Italian outweighs the +1 cut and the +4 reach on the KAS though. The 2k price difference is also nice.

If you want speed use a dagger or hammer. They can be deeeaadly :shock:

Totally agree and disagree at the same time.

The Knightly Armin Sword is really good and I use it all the time. But there is ONE other sword that you could use instead and which is almost the same. Surprisingly much the same. It's the LONG Arming Sword. Exactly the same, except cheaper and with 1 less cut. Good for the man who needs to maximise his money making abilities for different reasons. Like me when I used a horse.
This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.
