During my play-testing on PTR I noticed another mob having a different weapon with shield. And am asking why can’t I, as a sword and shield user, a option to change my sword for a different weapon if:
- Ancient spearman is having his spear paried with shield,
- A knight having beardaxe paried with shield,
- Corrupted ones and pirates having a pistol paried with shield.
???
While having different skills for every weapon paried with shield would be nice, It isn’t really that necessary. Sword, Axe and Mace (and Pick) can have the same attacks animation and skills, but allow for a SnS user to deal greater damage of one type.
- Sword: 100% swing atk dmg, 100% thrust atk dmg;
- Axe: 135% swing atack dmg, 75% thrust atk dmg;
- Mace: 135% swing (blunt type) atk dmg, 75% thrust atk dmg;
- Pick: 135 swing (thrust type) atk dmg, 75% thrust atk dmg.
Also, it would look far better having a different weapon than just sword by the belt.
