King!! 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2008 i have a ancient ss with rep dmg, and i also got a hp49 shield. The thing is with ss or rapier discussion, SS has better crit damage, rapier has better normal swinging dmg, but ill only be pulling out my swords for that 18 crits, after 18 ill be using my staff again. so SS will be better suited? right? indeed.

Dimora 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2008 or 30str light tower and agile rapier with high hp. but first its more wiser to take 40str then get the needed items (light tower/high pa shield/agile rapier) and if u still feel like needing more vit then use majestic points to take 30str.

~Silent~ 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2008 as Dimora says here, go for 40str first and if you get the nais itenz for 30str mage change it with majes. Yes I never thought you would use rapier for anything else but crits, but why I recommend you rapier is the crit range and the supportive aspect of it, you will stun mages, help wars to crit them and once in a while get lucky ek. You can still have short sword, I even recommend that but coz of its short crit range its not as effective as rapier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Windylar 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2008 u realy think that u can kill some1 with ur SS? thats bullshit, dex mages use their weapons for cast interrupt and stun, and fencing is alot better for that purpose, because of very high crit range... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King!! 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2008 Certainly rapier helps more in the stunning which helps war kill another mage. Yet, after blizzing a mages, when he amps, SS does have more dmg, and u can actually kill a mage if his hp was low (SS hitting for 20-30, while rapier hitting for 9-20). So basicly, the same story: - rapier = group pvp - ssword = 1vs1 pvp cheers :o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

F-A-I-L. You do know you can crit for nearly 60 with SS right? In a PVP if you run out of mana entirely you can throw all those crits into someone. Someone like yourself will underestimate the power of SS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Danthrax 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2008 is it worth having less vit/str/dex to have 50 mag for a warrior? Right now i have 200 dex 172 str 86 vit 60 int and 10 mag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
