Scythe vs. Great Sword

[Apokalypse]

ok, so i've read plenty of times, that the scythe is betta than 2 hand sword, but how much betta?
can any1 give me some numbers?
like, lets say scythe normal attack does 100, then would 2hand do 90?
or does a scythe do twice as much dmg as 2hand? scythe/100, 2hand/50dmg?
and wut about the weap skills, is guillotine that much greater than 2hand swords lvl 200 tp attack?

the reason i want to know is cuz some ppl like me, prefer to use the great sword,
but they dont wanna miss out on the true power of the DRK..
so if the scythe's normal and weap skill attacks are 30-50%stronger than 2hand sword, then i'll be forced to use scythe..
but if its only a miner difference, (scythe/300dmg-2hand/280dmg), then i'll jus keep using my 2hand sword..

heh, from wut i keep hearing, guillotine cant be beat..
but lets see wut the veterans have to say..

I would also like to know. I read somewhere that the Scythe is rated A+ and Great Sword as A-. What does this specifically mean? As far as numbers go.

It would depend on the weapon really. A good weapon will always beat a crappier one.

The A+ to A- thing I believe means how well they use the weapon, ex accuracy, but I'm not sure. Regardless, anything in the A range is good to use, but A+ is obviously the best. I don't think you will lose too much with an A- though.

Not yet, but as the levels get higher the difference gets bigger and bigger.

Also, let's not all forget that all of 2h sword's weapon skills SUCK.

The only 2H sword i would recommend is the LVL 70 DRK only sword(forget name) dropped by FanFir. GL getting it .

Yeah that sword (Balmunk) is t3h badass. Unfortunately, it still doesn't change the fact that there are no good weapon skills for 2h Sword

Scythe's WS also SUCK until lv60 :/
