Title: Weps and Hats
Post by: Zario777 on August 02, 2009, 06:51:07 AM
Well since I haven't been able to follow the SOv2 updates on the actual game instead of through this forum, I'm pretty sure that there has been a bunch of new weps and hats and monsters and such. So I last remember the Inferno Sword being the strongest wep in the game and the Dragoon being the best hat, but what are the best hats and weps in the game now?

Define "best".

I'm assuming he means for pvp...in which case...
Dark Knight Helm and Slasher
But, many players use hotkeys that involve hat/weapon combination moves, so it's all based on your style. Also, rumor has it Sand Giants drop Lengendary Sand Swords, FoG is currently the only person to own one, and he has said it is quite useful in PvP...

I'd say the DKH is the best pvp helm. The best weapon depends on your build and which weapon your opponent is using.

I believe it goes:
Inferno Sword > Slasher
Slasher > Spire Dagger
Spire Dagger > Inferno Sword

Also, each of these weapons requires certain stats to use effectively. Hammers can also give you insta-wins if you use them properly.

Inferno Sword !=> Slasher, Slasher > Inferno Sword easily. Inferno sword swings slower then GS and with slasher you can hit people twice swinging GS so it'd be the same with IS. Two swings is better then one.

There is no single "best" hat or weapon. Each person has stats that benefit them in different ways with different hats. The three weapons torch suggested are the best 3, though, however I don't agree that any of them completely dominates another. That is based solely on the stats and the skills of the wielder.

Inferno Sword and GS have pretty much the same swing time. It swings slower than the slasher, but you can generally hit 1 for 1 with the IS and Slasher if you have enough AGI. You definetely can't get 2 slasher swings out in the time it takes to swing the IS once.

There's also the Sand Sword, which has good damage, speed, cooldown, and deals minor knockback. The disadvantages are it's short range and high stamina costs.

Yes, yes you can. You haven't experienced this because you have such high agility, but fighting people like Maggi can be a pain in the ass. All they have to do is swing first, and they'll be able to hit you a second time if you swing back in retaliation if they do it correctly.
