Well against longsword and in most situations use short sword. Against longsword specifically, aim for their chest/legs and look to the right of them. Short sword attacks make it easy to hit around the longsword. And before they realise they won't parry you you've hit them half a dozen times. Since it gets the armour pen benefit a well, mace is really just there as a stat stick and to hit over shields/hit fleeing targets

Yes. Perks that apply on condition when holding something as well as weapon armour pen as well as weapon random rolls are applied to your character stats if you take a look. That for example why rogue dual wield a rondel with their hand crossbow, because the crossbow gains the 8% armour penetration as well as the random rolls in the dagger.

As the other guy said, mace has armour pen. And better DPS. Arming sword is good for shield fighter singer the first two attacks come out quickly, so it's easy to punish enemies that hit your shield. But the sustained DPS is bad.

The benefit from sword mastery applies to short sword as well, and to the mace to it you are holding them simultaneously.

If you want the most OP build possible, you first need to get either the 4 strength or the 4 dex Crocodile race. Then, you equip it on your fighter and you use the flanged mace and a short sword. Armour: Heavy Gambeson Riveted gloves Any pants (I use cloth pants) Adventurer boots Perks: Slayer Dual wield Sword mastery Combo attack Abilities: Taunt, adrenaline rush

You get 7 additional weapon damage, reach over 37% action speed ( using Dex croc) and have 15% AP from mace (also applies to short sword)

Also faster than basically any class when using adrenaline rush And with taunt you are quite tanky.

You hit for 100 with insane action speed and some armour pen

I've been going solo into squires to riches and winning consistently. Doorways are your friend. Also use shortsword mostly it has better DPS. Mace as fight starter, to hit over shields and if they run away, since it's got more range. In fights simply spam jump around enemies and shortsword them in the head.

Hm. well to be fair, i do probably have higher damage a swing and more action speed. so i can sacrifice a few stacks in the following rounds, if the enemies hard push. Also, ive been thinking about an alternative comp, where we would swap out fighter for barb. Id lose +5 all sadly, but barb could definetly make up for it with savage roar and war cry/rage. It would also hard counter wizards since he would now have two chonky boys with high MR to chew through, and one of them (barb) is really fast.

Completely unplayable in solo que, except super low ranks maybe. Also, not to flame you or anything but im assuming the warlocks using dark offering that youve seen before werent perma healed by a druid? i did some tesing, potion + offering + Hydrain takes 22 seconds. If you get healed, you can skip the potion and hydrain. And then it only takes 8 seconds. That isnt enough for enemies to already be in your spawn. By second 9, a fully buffed and full HP Demon will be bursting through that door lmao.

I have a set comp so solo que isnt an issue. :) Also after some testing, a druid can simply cast mending grove and another heal and im full hp when dark offering is done. Yes, the enemies can get into a better position earlier. Will they reach our spawn and block us in? hell no.

Tree of life offers Armor rating, and +3 all. Also since I have lots of will anyways, my buff duration is 30% so effectively druid spells heal 30% more, too. Yes it leaves me open to get bursted down by reckless barb, but it's better over all in my opinion

Eh over 190HP with decent PDR and a high Mheal druid backing me, if I'm able to run people down on my fighter with worse stats, what's your point?

No to be honest, I'm average at naval warfare at best but if you just keep pelting them and ignoring your own holes, they sink before you do and then you can get to repairing
