Weapons question

ins4nity11 · 04-28-2005, 07:11 AM

I am currently using dual batons, i tried useing 2 fist wraps, but it seemed like they were only hitting once, instead of dual wielding. Also, i am only lvl 21, and I am just wondering what weapons i should use, based on what are the best weapons at higher lvls. Such as cestus, maces, batons, 2h staff etc.. Thx a lot.

What is your basis that they only hit once? Animations plays no part in your hitting. You will often see a Priest "dual-wielding" when they have a book or orb in hand... but they are not.

If you equip, 1 fistwrap, and 1 centus you will see that in fact you are dual weilding, even though the animations are not matching.

Once into the higher tiers of combat you will get fist skill bonuses in some abilities. At that time fist weapons will be the way to go, giving you a small % more "to-hit".

BUT.... always keep a non player made weapon(s) on you, incase you come across mobs immune.

By the time you hit 50, should have 8-14 weapons on you depending on what your encounter is and your core function in the group.

8-14 weapons seems a little crazy to haul that many weapons around with you at any given time. But thats just me I could see primary set and two back up sets of different skill requirements.
