I want to make a dexless hero, but i dont know if i should go 1h or 2h first (planning on going full 1h by 100 ish). If i go 1h now my acc will get ownd, but if i go 2h ill be slightly slower and weaker. I have an atk shield btw and fully funded.

Ummm if you're "fully funded" as you say, then you can use your attack shield with the glowing whip and RK, which are great 1h swords for those levels. If you already have an attack shield then I dont see why not 1h. In those low levels it really doesn't matter what you pick. Both 1h and 2h swords have great options for under 70.

1h sword than you can hold a shield

I'm new to warriors, but my friend told me that unless you have a high atk shield to go with a 1 hander, a 2 hander will always damage higher, even at equal weapon attack levels. There is also quite a few fast speed two handed weapons out there so speed isn't so much of an issue. So I guess it depends on how good of shield and weapons you have or plan on having? Someone else should respond who knows more ;)

well a good shield would have to be 15atk or more.. 18atk shields are probably 1.8bil now so if you got those fundings.. go ahead. o.o

If you already have a good attk shield and a lot of money then you might as well save the shield and switch to 1h at lvl 100 or so.

All fine advice but not really wat im asking for. I guess im asking wich is better to go with till lvl 90+. Switch from 1h to 2h and vice verse is also acceptable but please name the weps you have in mind. My idea was use 100% (or flower tube) weps till lv40, then get glowing wipe, use that till 60 or 70 then switch to rohen so i can wrs. the rohen can easily last me till 90 if i get a nice scrolled one.

truth be told if all you want is pure dmg then 1h i believe will always out damage 2h if you have a good enough attack shield, but noticable 2h swords are: Night raven wing, stonetooth, jap map and lions/tigers fang which all have fast attack speed.

I dunno much about the flower tube so I'll just leave it out. At lvl 20 or whatever get the Fusion Mace. Lvl 30-50: 100%ed Lionsheart. fast(4) 50-64+:Japanese Map.fast(4) 64-80: Maple Soul Rohen. normal (6) or continue using the Japanese Map. fast (4) 80-90+: Blue Screamer/Heavens Gate. both normal(6) 90: Devils Sunrise. normal (6) Use the Devils Sunrise until you decide to switch to 1h.

The tube is Fast 4, so that replaces both the Lionheart AND Japanese Map, and potentially Rohen too. Now, I'd recommend 2H from 30 ~ 123-ish, then switch to 1H + attack shield when you have Brandish. I personally like 1H's playing style, after using it for more than a month, though.

^^ i think the 2h tube is fast (5)? i remember comparing speeds with my Jap Map but wasnt as fast

qq200 : ^^ i think the 2h tube is fast (5)? i remember comparing speeds with my Jap Map but wasnt as fast It's Fast 4, unless my counting is WAY off, it does 96 attacks in 1 minute, and 82 Soul Blades in 1 minute. A Fast 5 would only pull off around 78 Soul Blades and 90 attacks per minute.

also dont look past a fusion mace at lvl 25, its faster 3 and you should use it till 30ish as you wont have any mastery by then.

if you have a good attack shield, then go 1h.
