As you all know, LunchBoxes are no longer available, for the time being atleast. Maybe forever. LunchBoxes & Red Katanas are the only decent Fast(4) swords. However, most people opt to go for a Carabella instead. I want to know what att Red Katana = a 135att Carabella at Zakum. If anyone could answer that for me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Around... a 4-6 10/30%ed RK :O That carabella is very well scrolled o__o;

a 11x katana alone is no match for that carabella I believe, even with the speed advantage

... wow guys. 135 / 1.11... = 121.5, round up, 122. You would need just about a perfect RK.

kirayamato26 : ... wow guys. 135 / 1.11... = 121.5, round up, 122. You would need just about a perfect RK. I think if you factor in atk gloves, mon, atk cape, and any other atk equipment, the RK's atk needed to equal the carabella lessens. For example, if you add in 10 atk from mon and 15 atk from gloves, you'd only need a 119 atk rk.

WetFish : But the carabella also has that same boost. Essentially you need a perfect katana. In this scenario, constants give the RK an advantage. For example, 50 attack from other stuff, 135 attack Carabella, 185 total attack. That equates to 166.5 attack, round up to 167. Now subtract the 50 attack from other stuff, and it leaves you with a 117 attack RK.

WetFish : Touche, my apologies. Then my question is, whats more effective. a Reverse excecutioner, or a red katana? Depends on the attack of the executioner. I don't think a perfect red katana can compete with a perfect reverse executioner.

WetFish : Touche, my apologies. Then my question is, whats more effective. a Reverse excecutioner, or a red katana? Reverse Executioner, or at least, it is more practical. With the new 100%'s, you can get a 131 attack, 18 STR Hammered, unleveled, Executioner easily. Then when you level it, chances are, it will gain 3 ~ 4 attack, making it 134 or 135 final, with like 21 STR on it too.
