    It's the person that wields them that matters. The strongest style is only as good as the warrior using it.

    I'd like to spar with some people here. But, that's topic for another day. I'm going to sleep I've school tomorrow. BTW I consider myself competent but even if I got serious my sister who is about six inches shorter than me could beat me into a living pile of crap. She kicks like a angry mule. One time I was holding the heavy bag for her and I wasn't standing right. So I got knocked over.

    Edit:WhiteRook true enough.

    Weapons in general are like anything in life. They have their pros and cons so I can't say that there is one weapon I chose all the time.


    Edit:Why?

    Because of what you said in your last post.

    And you're right, weapons do have their pros and cons, but some have more pros than cons, and these are the weapons that stand out as the good ones.

    Well to answer your question then yes I do.

    Yeah, I'll give you that. Like if someone came at me with a knife I would always choose a long range weapon to keep my opponet at a safe distance but at the same time go into a strike of my own.

    That makes sense.

    There is also the fact on what kind of situation, like pros and cons you mentioned. Some weapons were built for a different kind of situation then others.

    EDIT: picked projectiles, a good bow will serve you good. But also there are fast melee weapons, which I really like as well.

    i love HUGE oversized swords (claymore or w/e) and i love the powers of light so the sword would b holy (basically a holy claymore)... and maybe it could have a few attachments (like Cloud's sword in Advent Children)

    I've always been a swordsman but i also belive that a good long range wepon is necessary so in my opinion i would carry projectiles such as kunais or throwing knives of other kinds wich can also be used if your main wepon is broken or has fallen and use them as close ranged weapons as for the main wepon a katana or a broadsword easy to move and swing but with precise hits lethal

    A simple katana (samurai sword) or two. Fast and efficient.

    The problem with the masamune is that if someone with a heavy weapon hit your sword in the middle upwards hard enough it would snap.
