glavie does a lot more damage, but blade also comes with more defence cus of the shield. also blade and shield will cost more, cus of equips, repairs, elixers, etc.

Glaive NOT

usually does more damage than blade.

The only reason i would go with blade is because of the incredibaly annoying but disgustingly helpful knockdown attack. but glaive does great damage.

Lol yeah the chains for blade are so much better in looks. But u gotta admit shura and pluto (dragon kinda) for spear chain look pretty good as well :roll:

blade is a fun character to play but a pain to lvl up, you'll be ksed by nearly everyone

Not true, Knockdown basically eliminates bladers being ks'd more than normal.

Wolfs can still KS knockdowned guys lol.... Also splash attacks like penetration hits from firenuke or splash from glaive moves can still hit knockdown guys... thats why if a blader hits a giant... I use ghostspear on a nearby mob... least I get a hit...

BTW Blade vs Blade..... get a bucket of popcorn....or 3... it'll take a long time... especially if they both knockdown back and forth....

Glaive>Blade for leveling
Blade>Glaive hunting uniques.. better tankers cuz BLOCK
Glaive vs Blade... Eventually my bet goes to Glaive... especially with double-crit on Soul Spear Soul and Ghost Spear Mars...

Now since there's block parry and critical parry... its alot better for Glaiver since usually Bladers depend on their shield block ratio in most of their combat...

but glavies depend on critical a lot, and shield now has the crit block parry. You have a point though.
