Hi, in one of the guides i found an information that 'heavy weapon' is slower than regular axe/club.
How much slower is it? How does it affect battles?

half speed, double dmg

+ some other positive and negative effeacts

Ty,
so what are pros and cons of those?
I believe it is easier to overcome targets armor when using heavy weapon... but on the other hand is 2times less chance to hit critical. any other ideas ?

ya but your criticals hit for twice as much so that aspect balances
basically you're losing out on things like life per attack
but you overcome defense easier

at the low levels heavy weapons are by far superior
whats not to like about 1 shotting

no it doesnt balance since you hit only every two seconds so that balances the double damage so the half cnahce to crit doesnt balance

ummm

say your reg wep hits for 5
heavy for 10

and your crit bonus is 2* and that happens 10% of the time

so after 100 seconds
heavy hits 50 times, 5 of which are crits
45*10 + 5*20 = 550
regular hits 100 times 10 of which are crits
90*5 + 10*10 = 550

NOWAY they hit for the same
