Greetings,

I'd like to ask more experienced players, what do You think about Barbarian weapons?
Which one should Barb use? Or mayby what is the diffrence in using diffrent kinds of weapons?
Any sense in using 2H weapons? Or rather 2x 1H weapons?
I'm a complete newbie in PW trying to make my own build, however choosing weaponry is still a blind spot :-) (because I would need more ingame experience ;-) )

For all the further help
ARIGATO!

    2H blunt and sharp weapons (one weapon in each hand/paw) have a high hit rate, but low attack damage.

    2H blunt and sharp weapons (one weapon, both hands/paws) have high damage, but miss a lot.

    In other words, if you want less misses and more hits, use the Dual Axes or Hammers. If you want high damage, go for the standard two-handed weapons.

    Personally, I prefer the Dual Axes and Hammers, since your going to be using your skills a lot during battle and it's crucial that they connect with the enemy. After all, we Barbarians don't have much MP to run on. On the other hand, if your going to be fighting in tiger form a lot, either weapon will do (for some reason it seems that when your in tiger form, the hit rate is the same for all weapons. I haven't verified this though.)

    Good luck =)

    Hammers are constant averaged damage. Axes are spike damage. Damage range is vast. can hit for 20, or for 100.
