It's funny...A lot of the swords posted on here as favorites I never see used by other players...Wingblades and Longswords appear to be huge favs, but I have rarely seen another PvEr use them. Weird?

I think Fellblades are overall the most popular sword.

Absolute Favorite: The Flamberge (Although, you have to have the biggest model male warrior, otherwise the sword looks too big.)

Sword models I sorta like:

Plagueborn
Broadsword
Jade Sword

And if you have a very very small female character, the Fellblade looks good too, just because it's so freaking huge that it's funny.

A print of my favourite:

I was originally going to use a shinobi blade for my warrior too when factions first came out. But then I found a white one and equiped it and found out how short and so very small the blade looked in proportion to my warrior, who, as I mentioned above, was created with the biggest possible model so that he'd not look out of proportion with the flamberge. I wish they had made the shinobi blades a little bit bigger, then it would be on my favorites list too.

By the way Blazing, what dye combo did you use for your armor? It looks good.

Have to say my favorites are the broadsword and jitte via factions. Then again I use monk primarily and those look good on them I think. The flamberge, gothic sword and GPB look great too.

1: Falchion
2: Longsword
3: Gladius
4: Crenellated
5: Pre Searing Longsword w/ Crystalline Skin

1 is just the most underated sword ever, it's simple, it dyes superbly and I have a req 8 15^50 one on my warrior

2 is a claymore, not a longsword, but that doesnt stop it lookin good.

3 I like, because it's one of those understated weapons which is well proportioned and nice and cheap too ;-)

4 Is easily the best of the big swords - I'd love a perfect one with barbed and defence mods on it

5 is the ultimate farming sword, no question about it. Crystalline skin looks good too, but I'd prefer a metal sword in that sort of wing-like shape. Anyone who's played Dark Chronicle/Dark Cloud 2 and had the Griffin Hook, something like that, maybe...

"Pre-nerf" is incorrect. It's pre-buff.

im gonna have to go with either the scimitar or forked sword skins

seriously do people like the look of crystalines or is it just because they are rare ? in my view they are really ugly

I admire the way that neither of those swords have a sundercrap mod. Good to see someone who doesn't follow the majority and 'do what everyone else does'.

Longswords FTW! Also like crenallated swords and flamberges. Warriors are big characters who wants a character thats like 6'7 with a sword that looks like a 3'4 person should be using. I just love the big blades and i think people just like the crystalline sword because its a rare skin not a good looking skin.

Sundercrap is the key word there.

Fellblades ftw
FDS and IDS are ownage too
IDS+Jacqui's Aegis = awesome sword shield combo
Fellblade+Gloom shield+FOW armor dyed black = best of all

It might be a bid common today, but I really like the Gold Dragon Blade.

I don't use it though, as I want my items to match, and only play Monk, I always play with a Gladius/Short Sword skin, because that's the only available skin for one of my main weapons. Matching sets rocks, if someone sees you changing to some other set, it might effect what he's doing.

The only sword so far that I have seen I don't like is the Jitt. It's like a school teachers pointer or something. I don't want to poke holes in the foe so water squirts out them when they drink. I want their flesh hanging by a thread as it's slashed off with each attack. Big gapping wounds oozing puss and blood and whatever else was left on the sword from previous fights.

By far the Gothic Sword and the Shadow Sword. Both are big favorites of mine.
