Issue with weapon of choice

[LongVin]

Anyone else having trouble getting this achievement? I've killed people with sword, bow, crossbow, gun, axe, and hammer. But still haven't gotten the achievement. Is there something I'm missing?

Mace? Polearm?

Yes and yes.

According to guides, people usually miss Training sword. And that's the only one I am missing too.

Thanks. That must be it. Now I just need to find a training sword.

Apparently I had them all, but the achievement didn't trigger until I closed out the game and came back in.

I also have defeated enemies with every weapon. Well training swords I have defeated in training. Do I have to kill someone with it?

I got it without having killed someone with a training sword. I've gotten kills with all real weapon types and a boulder. When I got it, I hadn't even used any training weapons aside from with Hans at the beginning.

Hi,
I've killed an enemy by sword, longsword, bow, crossbows, sabre, pistole, axe, mace, polearm, but still achievement doesn't pop-out. Can you advise if I am missing something, and if yes, what's that?

I've heard that there is also another type like "hunting sword", but not sure if truly it is another weapon. Any ideas?

Well your earliest sword (pick up at the herbalist by you or Hans off the dude Hans kills) is a hunting sword.

Overall there are 4 types of swords, not sure if you need to use all 4.

Hunting swords, are like cleavers with a single sharp edge. and are some of the earliest to find swords in game. Just about every poacher carries them. They typically have a little more blunt and not very good stab.

Shortswords, strait short blades, good at either slashing or piercing. Includes noble swords, broadswords and anything else that is one handed and a strait double edged blade.

Sabres, curved one handed weapon, with better piercing than cleavers, but primarily slashing weapons.

And last but not least, Longswords, which are 2 handed unless using a certain perk, but keep in mind your going to use more stamina and swing slower when using longsword one handed.

OK, so with the exception of this, I am missing any other type of weapon ?

The only other thing I can think of the possibility of pole arms. I haven't went for the achievement itself but whether you need to use both a halberd and quarterstaff type would be the possible question.

Stop killing people, it is very bad.

These are video game characters. They are even less real than your kids' toys.

Training sword does not count toward the achievement (I have the achieve and have never killed anyone with the wooden sword, only won training fights with it), but the different types of sword (shortsword, longsword, saber) all count separately, I believe.
