I have started sword main build and I like it. There is high level sword bm at pve: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmUCQZ8reA4 and there is at pvp: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ss7XYnpQreg&feature=related . I very like sword as main weapon. But I think that I'll have trouble for pvp at end game. Does it imposible to kill charmed barbarian or blademaster for sword bm? Any suggestion?

    honestly man if u want sword to be ur main u might as well just wait for Seeker to come out now. because limiting ur bm to only one weapon will just handicap u . Bms have 4 weapon paths for a reason i dont feel its that way for u to choose only one but more so to be versatile and use different weapon for different situation. My bm is an all path bm but most ppl feel they can get away with just axe and fist. So my advice is if sword is all u want to use then just be a seeker cause theyre gonna out sword the hell out of bms anyway so a bm might as well be versatile

    Yes, seekers. I think I won't like them as sins. I want something very rare, such as sword bm. So, what's your opion for pking at hig level? Does it imposible?

    It's not impossible, but it would be difficult. For sword only, you would have to depend on very powerful gear because the sword only skills available for BMs aren't very useful. See, most people would use fists for faster hits, axes for spike damage, even pikes/poles for range and some decent skills. Swords just fall so short because they're not very fast, not very strong, and non of the sword based skills are very handy in pvp.

    So as I said before, if you want to go sword exclusive and are concerned with pvp, make sure your end game sword is something powerful and your gear is sharded and refined. You'll be at a disadvantage no matter what class you face.

    imo. swords r only as good as the build u use for them. well, i've been told by a 97 bm that i was non fail and i use a 8x tt blade as my main weap. it's not the sword or any weap path a bm uses that makes the bm. it's how innovative one is with the weap he or she uses. u can use endgame swords or blades and still pwn at pvp. but u r stricken to 1v1 encounters mostly :P
    Do you hate me? Good, that makes for an adequate conversation starter.
