The topper?

[djfabiokk]

well i have a question, i bought a topper for my main guy, and it says that is a katana class, but it equips in the 2h, is this weapon a heavy and slow one? i never tried to kill someone with it, not yet.

[Blxz]

It is katana class so it uses katana skill. But it is a slightly heavier weapon. A nice mix between a lighter katana and a sabre class weapon.

So , do you recommend it ? or i should just go for 1h katanas.

Not to bounce in uninvited.

But personally, I recommend that you only use toppers if you have enough men with the katanas 1h.
They're quite the hitters though.
It is one of the better heavy weapons in the game so far, I prefer ringers, katanas, and the topper in my group.

im playing the demo so i just have 2 dudes. 2 very shitty ones.

=.='

Well, I would advise you to use the katans for dex, ringers for def, and then probably the toppers.

There are also two handed katanas. Which are good as well. Both two handed katana's and toppers are nice in case you get an arm chopped off you can draw a single handed katana to fight with and still use your weapon score.

Yeah, what scotterius said. Use your 2 weapon slots. Stick your bigger, more powerful weapon in the main bigger slot but you can carry a backup weapon in the smaller, secondary slot.

I quite like toppers but in the end you can find/buy very finely crafted katana's that are even better in damage AND lighter in weight....but that is top end equipment and hard to get. Stick with toppers for early mid game if you can get them.

Found a 1.1 dmg sword on a sand ninja, needles to say that want straight to my leader

[Kamos]

My katana does 2.4 damage .

[Elazul]

My katana does 2.4 damage .

Where did you find that? I have only been able to find a handful of 1.2 cut damage single handers and 1 topper that has slightly better stats than that(which went to the leader of my 'seven samurai').

[Kamos]

Had to buy it. Damned pricey at that.

Better than me. My hermit swordsmaster only has a 2. but then again, a guy like that only needs a 2.

I am so jealous =(

do you know if the price changes? and in what town? i need that katana

[Kamos]

Inventory and store prices are randomly generated at the start then after that the stores randomize again after a little while.
I'm thinking it was at least 13K or more from Clownsteady when I got it, probably more. Besides that's nothing my second best guy has a Sabre that does 2.6 Cutting 0.5 Blunt though he isn't as skilled as my main.

[Kamos]

Haven't seen an Edge Walker brand in ages but looking at mine right now.
Edge Walkers:
Katana Extended - Value 30K
Horse Chopper - Value 40K
So yeah...

For the time being, there's really no use in equipping lesser 1h weapons, since the 2h ones (like the topper) offer better reach and damage. Maybe if later a 2- weapon- fighting tecnique or backstabbing with short quick weapons is implemented the one handed small ones will be worth it.

Actually the best thing to do is equip your guys with 1h katanas to level up the dex, and when you got like 20 dex you equip them with 2h, so they can have damage, reach and a fast attack speed.

[Santaissick]

Also you can't use 2h weapons if one hand is broken/disabled.
