What Weapon Do You Use & Why?

[Centurion]

The womans vagina. Cuz im awesome like that. And henry the horse my charger cuz combined makes god.

[Huey Newton]

Masterwork Nordic Short War Sword

cuz im the only person in this whole mod who uses it lol

plus its short and teaches me position and manuevering

[UrLukur]

Side Sword cuz it's op.

[Gravoth_iii]

War spear, cos it is alot harder to use than a 2h sword.

[Hauptmann]

Poleaxes. I really like halberds, but the actual halberd is useless.

Also; Italian sword, and board shield on my 1h dude.

[Artyem]

I use a modified Swiss army knife that I bought, it has a Longsword, Poleaxe, Staff, Flamberge, Elite Scimitar and many other weapons, because I'm sick of just sticking to one build, I hybrid and collect weapons like I have obsessive compulsive disorder.

[Dravic]

Atm Tempered Niuweidao, great 1h weapon (35c swing dmg atm and no thrust, for me that is big plus) for 1h ninja builds (without shield).

Also, if i will be ever shielder, i will use it.

Style is important, too.

[Gristle]

Military Cleaver.

Nothing elegant here. It is a slow, brutish weapon, and that fits my style just fine. 39 cut fully heirloomed means, if I can get a hit in, it should hurt most anyone. It's also a Rhodok only weapon in Native, which fits my theme.


Heavy Crossbow.

Strong enough to kill all but the most heavily armored players in 2 hits or (rarely) less, and just fast enough to get a last second point blank shot right after reloading. I do love those point blank shots.

[Madcat]

I use the claymore. Because it looks awesome, it does a lot of damage and doesn't look silly like the flamberge

[Kafein]

Knightly arming sword and knightly heather shield...

Because I'm an idiot and I choose the theme with the most utterly underpowered possible equipment (and because I want to fit in my theme too).

[Count_RisArch]

The Heavy Bastard Sword.

Mostly for style, I concede the longsword is the superior weapon but it doen't have the awesome scabbard and I have always used the HBS as my primary 2h since the original mount and blade. What makes this weapon even more awsome is that it matches my...

Long Dagger.

Again for style, its look and sheath both match the HBS and look pure win when worn together. Not to mention the occasional hilarious peasant stabbings it allows.

I've also found this combo to not be very common at all!

[zagibu]

Knightly Arming Sword isn't that bad...but the shield is, compared to Huscarl's...

[Sean_Drew]

Now i use mainly my pole/shield char.

He uses war spear and shield in groups .... but i experiment on using spear or even shortend spear sometimes , cause they are faster. Don´t know which one i should heirloom.

SOmetimes i put away the shield ( if not in bigger groups ) and try my luck on 1 on 1 .... but i am really slow .... i think everyone is faster than me ;-) Without long mauls maybe ;-)

Next time i think more agi and wpf for the next gen.

Therefore i use the shortened spear sometimes , which is a bit faster than the other ones .... i´m not so good at blocking.

If anyone who uses spear mainly has an advice for me which one i should heiloome , shortened spear , spear , or war spear .... i would be greatful
Don´t know how much agi i should use .... to be fast enough in fights, and how much speed the weapon should have with/without shield.

But i really like the piercing damage of the spears ...



The other chars :

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Also i experiment with my 2h char , Geat Sword at the moment , which is a good balance of price , cut/pierce/range/spd and style .....

--------------------------------------------------------------------

- .... my 1h/shield char :  Italien Sword cause of style/spd/range/damage ( pierce and cut ) , Fighting axe .... good range/spd/damage against shielders , and round cavalry shield or huscarl , just looking if there are many axes on server , or not ;-) Round cavalry shield feels a bit faster with 103 spd .... don´t know if its true , or just my imaginary ...

[RamsesXXIIX]

Military cleaver, Heavy heater shield and Pike

The cleaver was for its style at first, but now, its an excellent weapon in both battle and siege. High damage ftw

Heavy heater shield because it gives me the necessary speed to use my cleaver efficiently, the huscarl doesn't.

Pike because i never know when the next horseman is approaching. 

[Oberyn]

MW Heavy lance. On horse, goes without necessary explanation. On foot, cause it's relatively rare and some people either underestimate it's speed  (slightly faster than a plain old heavy lance cause of the heirloom) and it's range (not many people are used to fighting against it on foot). It's more..."sporting" too, I guess. And goes with the "Oberyn" roleplay, for those who've read George RR Martin's series XD. Not to mention I like not having to pay upkeep for yet another weapon. The horse is expensive enough.
