    Also, don't worry on picking a weapon, there is not specific skill for sword or axe or spears. They are in the same category of close-range combat and all you have to do is get a melee weapon and level your skill. When you reach a high level is when you pick which one suits you, like spears have the highest maximum damage as well as the lowest minimum damage while axes have the least maxium damage but have an average attack. The weapons when applied with math, averages to about the same so no weapon is the greatest.

    Howbout duel wielding? I've read about knights and stuff using shields, but duel wielding is much cooler in my book. I saw one video of an Accretia guy duel wielding. I want to go Cora Warrior, but if they can't duel wield Accretia it is.

    Duel wielding is the same as any other type of close-ranged combat. It just makes it look cooler that's all. And all melee weapons except the knife are two-handed so the weapons are all balanced. Plus, why would you need dual wield when you can have a shield, which in wars are far more important because life on the real battlefield parish easily.

    Eh, I just like it better. Every MMO that I've played as a warrior class I've always dual wielded. I guess I'd rather do the melee damage than take it.

    But, thanks for the answer nonetheless. image

    If you dual wield you have the choice or swords or axes, and dual wielding does a lot more dmg than a shield user can.
  • Yes, obviously a two-handed weapon would do more damage than a one-handed weapon but, in mine battles, the last race standing is the winner, so you should think about whether or not to protect yourself or do more damage to the enemy (in this case, two other races) so, if you do a little math in your head, the best interest for you is to use a shield.

    Heh, I guess we'll see when the times comes. image

    As I've been saying, duel wield does not make your weapon stronger. In fact you don't choose to duel wield, the weapon comes with it and it is for decorative purposes only. Every weapon has a time where it will become a duel wield but that doesn't mean it's stronger than the other weapon type's same level one handed one. Arkronus is right, because being a warrior to carry melee weapons is an advantage because you can carry shields not because you can duel wield, because the other classes only have two handed weapons like guns and staffs. You may think shield is weak and you are right for low levels but when you raise your shield skill a lot then it becomes a life saver because not only does it decrease the damage you take but it sometimes even blocks the whole damage of the attack. So if you want to be a warrior, carry shields.

    ok first of all i kno this is my first post but. dual weilding is for damage dealers. sheilds are for tankers. u need a combination of them if u are going to do ne real good in a war if u jus have nothing bu tanks u wont do much damage to the enemy. if u have nothing but dd u might take a few but u will die like flies reason there are dd's and tankers
  • I_am_stupidI_am_stupid Member Posts: 70
    Okay, first of all, dual wielding is not choosable in RF Online if you care to read my post. It is only for decorative and when i say decorative it means it only makes it look good okay? You do not buy two weapons and put one in each hand. A weapon cannot be modified to become duel wield. Duel wielding does not make your character stronger. Duel wielding is not for damage dealers. There is no duel wielding skill in RF. Okay do you get it now?

    Hmm that kinda sucks about the dual but ohh well. Anwyase im planing on making a warrior type class beacsue with the whole potion thing they seem pretty beasty. Now if anyone knows what would make a better warrior i was thinking Accretia but im not 100% sure yet. Im still looking around on different sites for more info but does anyone here have any ideas of the good and bad about Accretia warrior or of the other races. Would really like to know thanks:)

    Is it just me... or does eveyone think that quadrapelegics are greedy? "i can't reach that" "i'm not tall enough" i mean c'mon now

  • I_am_stupidI_am_stupid Member Posts: 70
    All the classes warriors are about the same if you look it at the large scale comparitive. Well, since you would like to know about Acretian Warriors, then i'll start on them. First of all, the Acretians have the best defensive armor and are the fastest running race with the highest stamina(the yellow bar that shows how long you can run). They also have the ability to use launchers, the most powerful offensive weapon in the game. The bellato warriors are the best shield users because of their small size(bigger percentage of body covered by the shield) and also have the best self buffs in the game. The cora are a mixture of the bellato and the acretian warriors. I'm not completely sure this is right but that's how i got it. Oh, and thanks for completely reading my post so i don't have to say the same thing again and again and again.
  • NumariNumari Member Posts: 20

Ohh and by the way was the end part of ur last post "Oh, and thanks for completely reading my post so i don't have to say the same thing again and again and again." sarsacm:P kinda sounded like it haha well thanks again:D

    Well, basically, if people would completely finish reading a post, they wouldn't have to ask really noobie questions like "what is RF?" To get to an advanced class, all you have to do is level and have the class requirements, like to get to the class Phantom Shadow, you first need to be an Acretian ranger, then scout at level 30, then phantom shadow at level 40. All basic classes are at level 30 and advanced class at level 40.
