dag said that all three stats were to much, so yes, one stat + two others, I'm counting the two others as 'other things' (not saying I agree or dissagree with him, just saying it's weird to hear someone saying "please nerf me!")

Sorry, I don't like when things are based completely around theories. Theoretically you could get the best weapon and all the runes and Weapon Aura, sure. But would that make you overpowered, not necessarily. Unless you have some solid proofs that you're either going to attempt such a task and actually manage it, I don't see the point of arguing the theoretical.

Are you saying that 154/154/154 is not too strong, or you don't think such a weapon is capable?

His point is that it's all theoretical until someone does it. How long has Lusternia had runes without someone doing what you're proposing?

What's the point if it's all a game of "omg is it op?!" until someone actually does it and the effects can be seen and measured.

Most people just try to get good hammers/rapiers and don't bother with the other weapons.

I find that fact annoying.

Weapon selection is situational, most serious combatants carry several different weapons.

But yeah, for -most people- hammers/rapiers are best because they're ideally suited for bashing and are still useful in PvP. Can't say the same for the other variants, really.

I carry hunter rapiers and super prec. scimitars... If you gonna do the job, do it right, damnit

Plenty of people carry wounding weapons as well as speed ones, Daganev. It's only really the damage types that are neglected.

I don't know anyone who uses high damage weapons. Mainly precision for combat.

If current weapons could get their damage stat that high everyone would use them. glare.gif

Uh huh... well, I bought Ixion's rapiers, which I think off the top of my head are 34/202/227 and 34/197/232 and with forging runes I have 44/212/237 and 44/207/242. Now I am not a commune person but with the commune it would be 54/217/252 and 54/222/247. Now if I got +15 runes that is

69/232/267 and 69/237/262. Now, this is with commune without commune it is

59/222/257 and 59/227/252. Now the communes I do saywith that skill are OVER POWERED making a rapier that has about the max speed, and one of those rapiers caps Precision for a Scimitar, making a literal Rapier, Scimitar mix. Also, if I have 15% wounding runes, I might even be able to pin down both your legs in under 7 seconds.

I think that it is the communes that need to be looked out. Maybe Moonaura and Nightkiss to be removed?


Ahh my old rapiers. blush.gif

Well, as i understand, Broad=Damage, Scim=Precision, and Rapi=Speed and Longsword=Average


Thats right.

I was using high damage on Guardians (This didnt worked on Amaru) who hindered my offence pretty bad. So few haevy strikes could take them down.
I had from 2 to 4 different pairs of weapons for different situations. Also in group its better to hit harder then and do more damage then build wounds. Unless you want to pin someone down quickly with pinleg or something.
Or have 2-3 to lunge in head and then someone to finish with behead.
