    axe and mace vs blade

    Hoping some experienced players can help me out. I understand that blades cause more bleeding and are faster. This being said, what is the advantage of using an axe or mace compared to a sword with the same speed, since blades have the advantage of causing bleeding. Are the mace and axe better at smashing through heavy armor?

    I'm not sure but I can say that my A&M War has never had a deflection with her weapons.

    A&M has better armor penetration but a loss of speed.

    When you reach Primus where War and Theatrics have 100 armor or more, it's worth it !

    So it sounds like ax and mace really shine at the higher levels when you start facing heavily armored opponents. Thanks for the helpful info and quick response. love how active the forum is.
