Weapon of Choice

Post by deadpainter »

I'm thinking of making a new character. I'm curious to the preferences people have as of late. I've been noticing threads saying Bows suck now, and everyone is changing to Glavies. I'd just like to see a straight-up, overall preference.

Feel free to post your reasons if you like, but I'm just interested in the poll outcome.

I know there have been a gazillion and one threads about weapon choice, but I haven't seen a simple poll about it. That, and things change minute by minute around here :wink:

Thanks!

It's glaive, DAMMIT! :wink: And there're spears and swords. I guess you like pure str.
Go with glaive for a fast, efficent build. Hardcore players wield blades.

I didn't realize people were that picky with their weapon classifications. For me, I tend to clump Blades and Swords together, as well as Glaives and Spears.

Sorry if I offended anyone :wink:

Thanks for the votes everyone. It's pretty close, but Glaives seem to be sitting at the top.

Can't say I'm completely surprised. I've noticed many more people using them lately.

Thanks for the help.

Good luck on the SilkRoad!

So Nightbloom, we'll record your weapon of choice as "someone else's weapon", then? :P
Or is that one of the blades... I never keep up with the drama on Tavern.
