Lil Killa Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 Hello everyone I thought I would make a thread for weapons reviews. The purpose of this thread is to post reviews and recomendations for weapons you have ussed and how useful they where for you. I'll start the thread off with a review:D Cats Claws: I recently bought the "cats claws" a day ago and they have worked very well on people that are level 1 or 2 but only one the second hit, after i have punched them. When I fight level 3 people or higher I have found the claws to be completely useless. Recomendation: I would on recomend this to a person just starting out that is planning on only fighting lower level players. On the other hand all people planning on fighting other people levl 3 or up should save their money and buy something better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Siraious Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 The stick: Well I've used it once and in that battle it only did 3hp damage and considering fist do at least 5 I would suggest never buying this weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HertogJan Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 I agree about the claws, they are pretty useless, even for me, a poor lvl2 player Only does 1 hp MORE damage than my fists, and you know what? Ppl can dodge it easily! Same goes for the Brass knuckles; those weapons can easily be dodged, while I never saw anyone dodging my fists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfnshannon Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 I bought a Rod. Well..it does about as much damage as the fists. I fought Sherack Nhar this morning and I kept missing him but finnaly on the last blow I got him for 25 points and finished the fight. However I just got through battling Lil Killa whos on Level 5, he was able to evade the rod each time and if I did get lucky and hit him....only caused 13 points - my fists cause 15. *goes to the store to sell rod It sucks - don't buy one.

Redwing Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 Slightly off topic, does anyone know if your class or element affects your weapons usage? Cuz I dunno, maybe thieves are the best with a butterfly sword and mages with rods? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BongoBob Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 Has anyone bought the masumune? I just want it because it's sephies sword, and it prolly does tons o damage, but has anyone gotten it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike_windu|CLU| Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 wow, i know never to buy those items then . yes, i do believe that your class and element affect your weapons power. for example, i'm water, so i should really go with the watery stuff, like the ice rod . That is the way it works on most rpgs, so i think it works in this 1 too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Truthful Liar Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 Since Redwing brought up the question... I'll try help you guys the best I can. - Choosing Items: If you check the "Buff" status of a weapon, that's how much damage it deals out. Of course you have to consider how much Evade/Strength you and your opponent has, so it can vary. Same rule goes for armour levels, magic healing potions and magic attacks. - Choosing a Character: Being good or evil affects your normal attack/defense, magic attack/defense, speed and evade values. If you're on the good side you have higher magic status rather brute strength, also you're faster but your evade points are lower. For the dark side it's the opposite, you get lower magic points but higher attack/defense and better evade than speed. Gender doesn't matter. - Classes Classes are completely up to you, choose one you feel most comfortable with. I'm making a small table for myself with the statuses of each possible class. :] - Elements Elements only affect the bars below your character details - the HP, MA, PP and AP. Dark & Earth elements give you fairly high PP and AP, other bars are average. Fire element is average, your best bet is to stick to this if you don't want to risk anything. Light element gives you the highest HP status but decreases your AP to a near zero and lowers PP quite abit. You get the same MA as you would with Dark/Earth and Water elements. Lightning is another average element. Water is similar to Light, but it's **** in comparison you only get a slightly higher PP and AP level, so if you're going to go all the way for high HP values then just stick with Light. Wind is also pretty average, you do get higher HP than you would with Dark/Earth as well as higher PP and AP if you went with Light. I hope this helps clear some things up, if you find that I got some info wrong feel free to let me know so I can edit it. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Fisher Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 Thanks a lot, TTL, that really cleared up a lot of things. And for this thread, I bought a dagger when I was level 2 I think, and it did between 5-11 damage, it was great, then I advanced, and it almost went to 0.

El Sitherino Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Qi Na used his Stick to deal 30 points of damage. JediKnight_114 tried to dodge, but was not successful. JediKnight_114 has died!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Qi Na taunts: thwap I use a stick on lower level fighters but when i'm battling higher level ones i use my fists. I plan on buying a masamune which is a large battle katana used by shogun warlords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercatfat Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Reviews aren't really necessary.. weapons don't miss based on the weapon itself, they miss based on the evade of the opponent vs your speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Windu Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 so is there anything good to buy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cheat Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 probably only the items that are like 5000 gil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Fisher Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 so is there anything good to buy? Yeah, I'm getting the Masamune(sp?) and the Thunder Gloves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercatfat Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Everything is good to buy. If a weapon isn't doing good damage, it had less to do with the weapon than it does the defense of the other player. The whole game is just a calculation of stats and modifiers.

Lil Killa Posted July 21, 2003 Author Share Posted July 21, 2003 I gave my review a recomendation to only use it against those with a lower level like 1 or 2 and they have lower stats so My review possesses some value.............. i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 merc is right actually, as I discovered today. ^^ AB/Truthful Liar: Gender determines the classes you can pick from. Female has the standard plus white mage. Male has standard plus a whole bunch of others...which really isn't fair, but oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Fisher Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Fairness has nothing to do with it, anyways, it says that you don't have to choose your real gender in real life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kengo Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 I bought a wristband, you can't hit people with it so I guess it does something else? I just beat Eldritch up so it must be good for something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
