Re: New Great Sword
It's a neat toy, and does reasonably good damage (the additional fire damage isn't bad either from what I've seen of it), but the swing speed is pretty slow unless you get one of those rare triple attacks.

I can't think of too many cases where you'd want/need this, unless you're playing DRK and fighting lolJormungand or some such.

It's a very pretty weapon, though! Great for parading around in Al Zhabi or Jeuno.

Re: New Great Sword
TP burn has made all two-handed weapons inferior. Algol is the best choice as far as G. Swords go, but people aren't so hyped over it because you can't dual wield it.

Re: New Great Sword
*drool* I've wanted one of these since they were introduced. Pity that if I actually got one I'd probably never be able to use it because my drk seems to be stuck in the 50s and can't get out.

They do look great though. Anyone know how often the enfire procs cos 3% Triple Attack is pretty low given the weapon delay.

Re: New Great Sword
Wow nice. One of the Generals in Whitegate uses one in Besiege. Ive seen him double attack with it once, anyone know if he does triple attack with it?
