Man, I really wish I got this game about a month ago so I could be on par with you guys.

won't take you long sabby, I only have had this game for 10 days...I did play for around 5-6 hours a day tho.

@lestat people online rely on the shield waaay too much, pretty much the reason I prefer two-handed style. I got invaded 3 times yesterday and every single one of them was either normal sword and shield (just asking to die...) and another guy came in with scraping spear and shield (just asking to die as well...I have over 1k life scraping spear can't compete at this SL plus scraping spear pisses me off...). I'd like to see how my MC matches against ur moonlight/blind.

Scraping Spear...I have a feeling you're underestimating it's power... Took my whole gear down, even my shield, then the dude switches weps and killed me...It's all a matter of how you use a weapon, really.

underestimating scraping spear power? I think you are overestimating it, MC has 400 durability a scraping spear is never going to break my weapon, it takes off 10 dura per hit, 30 percent of max dura is considered a broken weapon. 30% of 400 is 120, this means that scraping spear has to hit me 28 times before my weapon breaks.

Scraping spear damage is 100 per hit with an E/A bonus with max stats it should barely squeak out 240 damage and that is with 99 str and 99 dex...I deal 500 damage a hit with 36 str, 40 dex, and 26 faith the I would think the best pvpers usually do not go over 1500 life in body form. At 50 vit you have 1500 life, at 99 vit you only get 1900, 49 soul levels for 400 more life due to the diminishing returns of the game. 500 damage per hit means even the BEASTEST vita character can not get hit by me 3 times before dying. Quite frankly I've yet to see someone take 2 direct shots from my MC and survive. I am at 1.2k life in body form right now at SL 125, a scraping spear has to hit me 8-9 times consecutively for me to die. Plus I prebuff like mad, this is another reason I never lost a BP fight, what is the BP going to do when I die and bam wtf bbq this fool has second chance on?! Or even worse for the scraping spear would be if I cast warding, more than halves physical damage now that scraping spear is really just a scraping spear...
