Twohanded Blunt skill
General information
Twohanded Blunt weapons are an extremely powerful class of weapons that demand high strength from the user, and reward it greatly. Some twohanded blunt weapons can hit from pole range, and most do at least severe impact damage. The advent of forging has allowed players to create twohanded blunt weapons with a vast range of weights and styles, and today they are more popular than ever.
The weapon mostly enjoys popularity with Barbarians, but changes to roundtime have opened the door for weaker characters to use heavier weapons. Thanks to their high impact and strength suitability, they have a tendency to stun and knock down enemies more often than other weapons, though their major failing is poor balance and almost no puncture or slice damage, leaving them less effective for parrying and damaging creatures with a high degree of natural armor.
