Axes

[Ilrahil]

Straag made a comment on the Gladiators thread about 1-2 axe users.

As a former axe user I think that there is a serious lack of axes in the game to support more than a handful of people using them.

My suggestion there should be more. There is a wide array of swords and polearms. There is even a fair amount of clubs, but axes you have 2-3 kinds that people go for. The rest are just normally referred to as shit. Just some food for thought.

You are sure, my general?
Cleaver, BSA, MBB, chystal, dwarven, corrupted mithril even flame axe is good, untill you have mana. Many years ago, when i was gladiator i was happy even with BHB.

Cleaver sucks, BSA is heavy as hell, MBB Chrystal and Yagluks axes are the only ones I ever see people use, due to weight, mana issues or the like. I mean sure if I am just gonna go grind something small I can just go grab two huges, but people are so gearhorny today since there are so many supermegauber weapons, the other weapons fade away compared to them and become shait

And mihtril crescent? Half moon bladed? Years ago, when BSA was right-handed, one of the mine favorit combo was BSA+cleaver. Glads with layman AA was big funs of BSA+HSC or RMW. I don't think this game need more uber EQ. I even think a lot of uber EQ should be removed.

I'd say axes people use...

Crystal, Corrupted, Yagluk's, Mithril crescent, runed, and occasionally a MBB

Like Draugor said the BSA is heavy as hell, and the cleaver is just awful. I've heard few good things about the dwarven waraxe as well.

Compared to 10-15 swords or polearms that are great and a good 10 clubs to be able to use.

I can't understand why people keep on forgetting the soulreaper. its better then the MBB (IMHO) and it has some nice abilities.

[Ilrahil]

Hit/pen wise its not better than the MBB.

I agree, or atleast nerfed alittle, for example the crystal axe, flaming, healing and HURTING like hell, lower the hit/pen or atleast nerf the healing or fireball damage, the fireballs hurt like a bastard.
Same with swords, ot make the NPCs holding the items an actual challenge, Gigantic broadsword is held by a complete wuss and thats one of the best swords, EVER. Same with Runies, shadow elves are sissies, annoying aye with the weapon stealing but they are piss easy to take down. Uber stuff is to easy to get and its WAY to bloody uber, Mergula, thats an NPC that actually is as hard as he should be compared to the stuff he has.

Mergula, thats an NPC that actually is as hard as he should be compared to the stuff he has.

other than the sword ... because the sword plainly blows compared to how hard it is to get, of course
