Melee skills can be called as the hardest skills to master in darkfall game. It is smart to pick one type of 1H or one type of 2H early on. Here is an introduction on 1H type melee skills. Its swords are featured longest range, fastest swing, and lowest damage per hit. Its power varies in situation where it is used. If you use it on food, you can not make full use of it because therange is too short to be effective. However, while mounted it has the potential to out-damage every other melee weapon in the game. Mount fighting efficiently needs tricky. When you fight against an opponent youd better land one hit before needing to re-position. On foot, it made the extra speed more or less useless against targets. but when mounted, the extra speed becomes nice, it will come in handy when fighting mount versus mount. As for its axes, its power is great, but is also depending on the situation. It has the highest damage per hit, slightly slower swings and slightly less range than swords. While on foot the range is too short to be effective. While mounted, axes are basically the flip side of swords. When you fight against your opponent, they are more effective on food, less effective on mount, which is the opposite of its swords. Sithras are the only one with the viable nature on foot. They have great damage, its range is decent. You get to hold a shield while using one, and they scare the shit out of people.About the Author:
