Hero Class - Character Stat Analysis, Recommended Items, and Strategies

Big Shot does 140 pierce damage not 135 pierce. Just saying.

It was 135 when I started writing this.  Fixed.  No need to be rude about it.

Thank you for your kind comments, I plan on adding more that focuses on new items available, then move on to Hybrids.

It's 140 pierce since 0.5.1 (that's since: 26th July). I was just saying it. Don't feel offended. I was just trying to help you.

Yes, yes, it was quite some time ago.  I just got lazy halfway through and didn't actually have most of the hero classes.  I was referring to the use of font size, but it isn't important.  Thank you for that information.  I'm guessing there will be a lot more mistakes in the future hehe

"I recommend using lighter armor to allow for
faster slashing, so consider wearing lighter
boots or no boots at all."
Lol, since when the encumbrance influences the speed of slashing?

Uh... since always?  That is the Warband works, last it was explained to me.

"Everything you wear increases your encumberance. There are perks to reduce your weight of certain items. The more encumbrance you have the slightly slower your swings-peed and acceleration."

This one states that Encumbrance will "increases the delay after parrying or blocking before another attack can be made with the weapon."

Here Galen states, "Weight definitely makes a difference. Based on athletics (and somewhat agility, I think) the amount of weight you carry affects you less. Shooting rate of ranged weapons is dependent on total encumbrance."  I would assume that this would continue on to influence swing speed as well.

Really nice and helpful thread. Also for Aventurier since you have one, can they 1 or 2 hit kill enemies in hard such as Nord Veteran Soldier with a Ornate Espada?
