Welcome to my guide on the Blademaster's weapon choices. I'll refrain from typing a long, boring intro and get to the heart of the subject! So, here ya go
____________________
AXES: This is the best build for a "Blade"master, surprisingly. Axes have the best levelling speed, due to AoE attacks, out of all the other sub-classes. In addition, they also have the best defence and attack power. In pk, skill speed rules rather than weapon speed, so don't be fooled into thinking that axes are slow... they're equally as fast as the other class's weapons. Due to this, and the Axe's third stun, an axe Blademaster can lock a person in a perpetual state of stun. Accuracy can be increased with rings of LingYun to godly amounts, and dodge rate doesn't matter anyways. At level 90, when you get the "Ironheart" axe, you will be unstoppable.
The build for a pk Axer is enough STR to wield your axe, anough AGI to wield a spear, and everything leftover to CON.
For territorial war, you may want to put your AGI high enough for blades.
__________________
SPEARS: Another amazing Blademaster sub-class. Due to powerful distance skills, and a variety of linear AoEs, spears are very valuable in war, and powerful for pk. Due to the AGI required for spears, you will have more HP than a pker/wargoing axer, but you will have to line up your targets so that you can use your linear AoE properly. When in the right hands, a spear Blademaster is a truly formidable force - a presence that people on a field of battle are unlikely to miss.
The build for a pk Spear-user is simply enough STR and AGI to wear heavy armour and your spear, and for the remainder to be used in CON.
For war... you MIGHT want to put AGI up to a blader's level. I don't personally recommend it, but if you can't get LingYun rings then you might need to.
__________________
BLADES: This type of Blademaster is the, without a queston, best damage-dealer Blademaster in a 1v1. They have the highest damage output against bosses, and in fair pk/duels due to amazing skills, and weapon speed(for bosses). At leve 90, the golden Dragon Blade is a testiment to the Blademaster's awesomeness... You will hit so hard and fast, you'll probably laugh at yourself out of pride. However, you'll have less HP than a spear or axe Blademaster, and less defensive power. Due to a l ack of AoE skills, you are less than wanted for Territorial War, and in PK, you won't be as effective as a spear or axe Blademaster.
For a pk build, you need enough STR to wear heavy armour, enough AGI for your sword, and the rest to CON. Accuracy problems are solved with rings, and pills.
__________________
FISTS: This is actually a bad class. Damage-dealing is good, but a Blader will do better. The high-required AGI for fists is good, but a Blader will still do a better AGI-type build. Fists at this point have few advantages... Dodge rate is totally gimp-tarded in this game, and accuracy is acquired in many ways other than AGI. I strongly un-recommend(lol) this class...
However, if you feel the need to be different, then a fist weapon will do that.
So, enjoy the Blademaster class. It's very cool to play, and is the second-most wealthy class in the game due to lack of spending on heiros and potions. Plus, they make very decent PKers.
If you have any questions that I didn't answer, just ask away.

You'd put up agi so that you don't miss when you deal an aoe attack to a whole bunch of people in TW.As a Guild,

One thing I can add is that a Blade Master can choose to master two weapons (But due to the insane skill point requirement, barely any one can master three or all four weapons, although it is Theoreticly possible). Among all combinations, Axe+Spear is the most popular one since such a BM has both AOE and PK skills and does good for both PVE and PVP.0

Nice guide but got some questions.
I plan to go both axe and spear build, gonna max both tree's, but at first I will lvl axe, and at higher lvls start adding spear skills.
Reason??
Gonna use Spears Doom Skill to decrease my opponents attack and defense by 50%, then switch to axe to stun them, and spike damage them with their low defence.
Ok the question is....
What build is good for Axe/Spear Blademaster??
I thought of two ways.
1. Minimum Str for Axe, Minimum Agi for Spear, rest con.
2. Minimum Str for Axe, Minimum Agi for 1 Hand Sword, rest con.
I might have low hp for Option 2, but I plan to go heaven so my defense should be fixed.
Which build would you recommend?

In PvP, build 1 has more potential than build 2. Accuracy is easily fixed with rings and drugs.As a Guild,

Hmm...
For me it's Looks > POWAHR, but if Axes are really THAT good as it says here, than I might go with that. Wanted to use blades though since they look badass[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

lol, ok :P
thx
so axe/spear build works for tw too?
choosing ur weapon is best done according to the situation..
if ur enemy is dumb enough to aggregate together, then best weapon to use is ur axes
spear's also good, because it has a farther reach, which is useful for those classes that hit and run, u can use ur long reach skill to finish him/her off.
swords? not sure why that noob said is good in tw, maybe only the final skll is good do deal out massive damage.
fists? good for chi gathering probably, if ur main job is to stun.0 -
2 handed axe

what should I go with if I want to pvp/PK very well?
i will be a blade master0 -
Say, are dual-hammers useful for PvE? They seem to hit for quite a bit and have an attack rate of 0.83.0

Hammers and axes use the same builds fgsfds. Hammers have a higher min. damage and lower max damage than axes.
Hammers = steady damage
Axes = great spike damage potential
I personally prefer hammers as I know I will at least do X damage, which is more than the axes minimum damage.0 -

Quoted for Truth
I prefer D.Hammers due to the Min/Max, but the D.Axe dmg spikes are awesome WTB Axes with +Min Dmg buffsLead me not into temptation... I can find that myself0 -
Keep in mind that its not easy to get Lingyun Rings, so relying on those to keep your accuracy up is a bad choice.0

hey hey hey.....
there really aint nothin wrong with fist weapons....
i personally think they are awesome in terms of dmg that can be dealt overall and the fact that they look sick!
your right tho....there are very few fist Blademasters.....seriously...u can look and look....but u hardly see any....
it aint exactly a popular class....
I will stick with being a fist blademaster tho.....it....makes things jus a bit more....how would u say..."intersting"...lol0 -

wowo... u mean there are 4 different tress for the 4 classes .. i didnt knw thanks guys.. so i am also going to go with the axe and spear thing.. i knw this might have been posted in alot of places but is it possible for u to post the skills i have to buy for axes first and then for spears? plz u will be helping me alot.0

Very helpful,now I know the differences. Thank you ark!0

nice guide.
These are the screen shot i pawned a WF noob. this is taken from Malaysian English Server.
You may ask why i am still using Purple (3 stars), but not getting a Green (4 stars) or a Gold (5stars) in my current lvl.
My answer is there is no Green or Gold weapon for Dual Bladers before you attain lvl 80, unless you use single sword or blade, so for Dual Blader, sorry to say, you have to attain lvl 80 then you can get Greenies or Goldies. Oh , there is one gold Dual Blade , but it is rank 5 -__-'' , it is pointless to get, because it is for low lvl to use (lvl 30-40). however, u can lvl up very fast to lvl 50 or 60 to get rank 8 weapon, so it is pointless to get that low lvl gold dual blade. By the way, a 3 stars dual blade user can easily out-damage a green Single sword users ^^[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
YOU JUST GOT OWNED b:bye0 -
