Is there a penalty to using them as 1 handed swords? Damage, speed ect, if not why would you ever use a true 1 handed sword?

Well right now pretty much every hand and a half sword sucks at dealing damage.

I thought as of now damage was calculated by weapon weight and speed, being that 1.5 swords are longer and heaver how is it they do less damage? Man I wish training dummies worked so I could do some testing.

Well last time I hit someone with a Messer I did 24 damage so, compared to the Morning stars 60 damage it's pretty bad.

Weapons have a damage ratio that you can view in the client side files.

I always suspected that there was some base damage multiplier by class, but I don know what the ratio is multiplying.

However, the damage ratio makes it clear that there is more to weapon damage than just weight/length/speed.

Can you tell me what file has these values listed?

Swords tend to have lower damage because they have a bigger hit box.

Hammers/maces/axes are higher because they have a smaller area to hit with.
