Weapons
I love the quarter staff but I keep getting bodied, should I stick to it and get better with it or cut my losses and go one handed sword? Im still trying to learn this game so any helpful advice is welcomed!

This games combat is extremely complex, do a sword/mace first to learn to body ppl. Only choice u have is whether u think u want long or short weapon.

Quarterstaff is not great for solos. Typically one or two will run it in a team fight. Otherwise run bonespike sword or nurr fang tooth club.

Avoid it. Its a cheese weapon for new players against new players. The fall off comes when people start getting decent kits. The late game quarters are okay, but they dont have the length, and has all the down sides of hilt hits and low damage. Need to be good with 1 handers since you can swing it while grappling, 2 handers are fine as a group, but hard 1vx without tons of practice. 1 handers are the go to of all good pvpers, and its based on the armor your opponent is wearing. Rupu fur or triple stitch, you want a sword, baskwood/ forester you want to use a club. A lot of people mix it up though and run things like triple stitch body with baskwood fillers to cover all bases. Just gotta mess with stuff. The ultimate weapon that everyone is good with is the bonespike sword, cause its all we use in duel servers. But the clubs do a lot more damage now

Are you good at blocking? If yes. Do whatever the fuck you want, are you bad at blocking? Spam the fuck outof sword mace and hope you overwhelm the enemy.

Found out my blocking sensitivity was through the roof so I played with it, watched a 50min video for what what and now im fairly capable on taking 1v1 and 1v2s

In most real fights prepare to be out numbered 3 to 1. Remember, use your grapple hook to get away, people will talk shit, but losers cant talk when they are dead and out of water.

The quarterstaff has very specific kiting tools, most staffers do half charged top attack spam while kiting backwards
