Blade, they can tank a lot better. They have a little trouble killing stuff but it's a lot safer to use a blader.

Glaives are stronger in terms of pure damage.

It's so hard to tell it's not even funny lol, all I can say really is bladers tank better, glaives do more damage and have more health. Other then that nobody can really say which one is better.

ya but that's a waste kk.

Glavie pwn all. More hp , much better dmg , quicker kills , quicker levelling.
A blader is just a tanking piece of shit, I don't see a blader of my own lv killing me anytime soon.
Blader only has a nice combo and a cool knockdown , but no good damage.
2 bladers vs 1 glavie = no kill
2 glaviers vs X bladers = total rampage

Well, they got to suck then... If you search for posts in this forum on surveys regarding pure str bladers vs pure str glavie, you would see that they'd say that it takes forever for the battle to be over, the way to win in a blader vs glavie or vice versa pvp is to have more pots than your opponent.. I've seen so many same high lvl pure str blader vs pure str glavie pvps(usually on hunters vs theives) and I'd say that nobody really wins unless they were out of health potions or it's a 2 vs 1.. I've seen glavies tank 2 bladers and I'd also seen a blader tank 2 glavies but if I were to pick, I'd pick glavie because they do better in PvE and almost do the same as bladers in PvP... The advantage really of a blader in pvp is against nukers, if there are 2-3 nukers vs 1 blader, I'm pretty sure he could pwn them all but with glavie, it's kinda hard to defeat multiple nukers because they deal a lot of damage and all those damage cannot be blocked not like bladers, but if it's 1 vs 1 nuker vs pure str glavie, it's gonna be the other way around, I'm pretty sure..

Go Glavie. A Blader only kills a Pure Str Glavie if they run out of pots.

Two Bladers will have less of a chance killing you if one is Ice.

You can still outpot their damage though. The only thing I'm scared of against a blader, is if I run out of pills, and they have high burn damage.

Ive never been beaten by a glaiver of my level. As long as you time your combos and knockdown right you can beat anything.

I've never been beaten by a Blader who was 3-4 levels higher than me in a decent time frame.

My old character was a lvl37 glavier, and i didnt often lose pvp to anyone, bladers who use only the knock down and stab skill over and over again just meant that it was a 'who has the most pots' competition. But generally, only higher level nukers were the people who killed me in pvp. 8)

All I can say is, glavie vs. bladers=pot fight... But I'd go for glavie because of PvE ownage!!! And because it is my main characters... :oops:

when used properly, nukers can be deadly.

thou the less hp does suck sometimes, nuking > anything else.

only problem with a blader in pvp is that the dmg is delt in smaller increments which allows ur target to heal. Sometimes, lets say when you're lvl 3x, if ur target is using large or even med hp pots sumtimes, you might not be able to kill them at all unless you have sum major crits or really good wep
Say farewell to when
For it is now
That you will kindle the love
That was given
And the dream to vow
Forever to be the shoulder
For the tears that rain
From the eyes of one
Never to stain
