Weapon Characteristics~

As you probably know by now, Their are many different types of weapons which are available to the different classes.

SWORDS
Swords are good for fast attacks. Their the easiest to handle because their fast in attacking and retrieve. Therefore there isn't a massive lag time in between each combo.

AXE
Axes have the slowest of all weapons' finishing action. Their difficult to retrieve after and attack because its heavy and therefore there is a gap between each combo in which you are open to attack. However, disregarding its difficulty to handle, If you have a good Chain Attack Skill, in your skill tree its incredibly easy to inflict high damage critical strikes.

BLUNT WEAPONS
Blunt weapons are slower then swords in attacking and retrieving. Using a Blunt Weapon in chain attacks is slow so its frustrating however it disables the monsters defense due to it being a strong weapon.

SUBCLASSES

TWO HANDED
Two handed weapons are incredibly strong, However they are slow and they have a large lagtime in between each attack. However they are good because it is more consistent with the damage. Using them in chain attacks will lead to a high damage output. This is sub class of the above weapons.

ONE HANDED
One handed weapons are above average strength, however they are faster then Two handers and Tankers can also use a shield in combination with this so these weapons are useful. They have less of a opening after each combo then the Two handed so its easy to send out consistent blows with these weapons.

SMALL WEAPONS
If your using these weapons, Then most likely your a scout. If you aren't a scout I recommend you change your weapon immediately as you aren't maximizing your classes damage potential. They are incredibly fast and when dual wielding, they deal an average amount of damage at high speeds with a very small gap between each combo.

GUNS
These are in my opinion, Useless unless you've got a lot of points in DEX. Whilst it being range is useful, Its incredibly slow and its only useful one on one. If in mobs you will attract a lot of attention and get swarmed. Its only use that I can find so far is when monsters try to escape its easy to shoot them from afar.
