I still think that the reason katana and wakizashi cost so much is exotic weapon/weeaboo tax. You want it that bad for style points? Pay extra for the fancy sword. It's not a huge deal.

Having owned a +3 wakizashi, it's really good for what it is. It has the speed of daggers/knives but nearly double the length. The short falchion is borderline OP, so comparing it to that weapon alone isn't fair. It's an insanely fast 0 slot weapon that can block. When I was 18/24 1H shielder I loved the thing.

irl something shorted on the shuttle and laika overheated and died within a few hours of liftoff and for a brief while one could look up to the stars and see a light shooting across the sky that was actually a warm dog corpse slingshoting about the earth at thousands of miles per hour which was arguably humanity's greatest achievement so far

Nodachi needs a buff as well compared to Highland Claymore. The weaboo hate shouldn't be the main reason why eastern items have worse stats than European items.

Aside from the stab and the 1 less speed, the nodachi is stronger than the Claymore

My problem with the waki is that it's a very rock-paper-scissors-ish weapon. If you fight guys in peasant armor it will cut them very easily and the speed makes it difficult to block, making it a good weapon against low armor. However, a little bit of metal will basically cockblock this weapon into oblivion.

Week or two ago I saw someone from Mercs [or ex Mercs, don't remember nick now] on siege server with it. He used shield too and he was on top of his team with good score. I wouldn't say it need a buff. Fast as hell.

The goal of Strategus battles shouldnt be to deprive your enemies of players, but to have full roster both sides and have the gear/tactics/strategy win the day rather than lack of merc support.

So aside from the weaknesses of a weapon it's actually strong?

Honestly though, the strength requirement on the wakizashi is way too low anyway, and should receive a nerf to that, which could be balanced out by a stat buff. Besides I don't see wakizashi being the choice of 4/36 or 6/33 builds anyway, it shouldn't be a problem.

Another 5 Length, extra weight and a curved model evens out the lack of 1 damage/stab imo.
