what's your favorite weapon?

I have tried bow, maces, swords and 2 handers.
I don't see the point of 2 handers because of how melee is handled in this game. Far to slow in my opinion, especially when you're surrounded by 3 or 4 brigands.
Bow is fine for solo kiting but when it comes to big melees it's quite unefficient, most of my arrows end up in my villagers arses.
Last there is good old 1hander + shield, but I have yet to decide between swords, daggers, maces and hammers

definetely a bow. You can just climb to an incaccessible point (even most young trees can be climbed) where you'll will be safe from melee fighters. Archers have limited ammo so they will after a few shots run out and turn into melee fighters aswell.

yeah, I got to agree and been t here too. I'm talking about a good 20 vs 20 fight though.
I don't see what is the point of having different kind of damage also, anyone figured it out ?

If you tried the Pitchfork you will lose your mind on how its designed xD
So far, bow is the only viable means, if you do one on one, any weapons are decent, as long as you know how to time your block and if your body doesnt block your view when they thrust.

I use Bow and 1h T3 Saber, the bow to soften the havy infantry an the saber agains there archers to preserve arrows. No use for 2h so far because of my lag of str.
Cut vs plunt, I think intime cutwappons are mostly longer with an higher Attspeed but they lag against heavy Armor, Bluntwappons are shorter and mutch slower but are better against heavy armor.
The Tier of your weapon and the enemy armor is also important to calculate the dmg.

The Fine Longsword is the best for me currently. It's the first T3 two-handed sword and has a long reach especially the stabbing attack. It is the first weapon which I can melee kite a whole brigand group with. And one-shots naked bandits too. I also hunt deers with it.
