Umm what do you guys prefer as a blademaster, I know some of the pros and cons but what should be recommended most as a BM? o.o

    Heavy armor, always. Light armor does you no good as a BM. You should be stunning anything that uses magic anyways. And if its a boss, you should have a cleric behind you.
    It takes a big man to cry, but a bigger man to laugh at him.

    Go for heavier armors, since BM are secondary at tanking.

    Doesn't your choice of weapon also affect which type of armor you use? I started a Fist BM and the amount of Dex my claws require pretty much limits me to either Light Armor or lower grade Heavy Armor.

    As a fist BM you will always have points to use both, Heavy Armor and your weapon.

    Unless you go for like pure dex or something, you should have enough str for Heavy. Having said that, fisties can get away with light pretty well because in later levels they're going for mass dodge.

    heavy.. light is useless .. some say its good for mages but thats just a no go.. if you want protection from mages upgrade stun attacks nd put mdef shards on your sockets.
