Shattered Kingdoms

Why are we talking about slings? How about we fix the real weapon types? Flail, mace, polearm, whip, axe, even daggers could use some tweaking. I would think dagger/dagger would be a viable combo for a swashie but they'd get absolutely destroyed by any decent combo of swords/exotic weapons.

why would a dagger/dagger combo stand a chance vs a sword/sword?

That aside though, there are some preeetty damn aaacurate daggers out there that will most likely make a swashie wearing them on mood defensive an impenetrable wall of parry.

Daggers should be faster and more accurate than swords.

I think most daggers are faster than most swords, and are also reasonably accurate. It's the damage department, generally, that they are lacking in, which makes sense.
