Man-at-Arms with One-hand spear and Mace or Axe I highly advise staying away from archers as engineer in general, as your job is a backline support (build barricades and throw med kits to the frontliners) not an archer killer. If you steal a halberd, sword or any such weapon, go after vanguards.Īlternatively, you can pick up a shield + 1hander and play the "delay" game. So if you (as engi) steal a maul, heavy mace or the like go after knights and footmen. you're better off stealing basically any non-engi weapon off the ground at the first chance you get and choose your opponents according to the strength and weaknesses of that weapon. Vanguard and Archer: well, either Shovel or Pickaxe, Engi doesn't really have access to good cut weapons. Knight (and other Footmen): Sledgehammer. vs Vanguard and Archer: Halberd, Spear or any stolen 2 handed sword off the ground.Įngineer vs. Knight (and other Footmen): Morning Star (or a stolen Warhammer). I’ve been seeing more and more great players play the maul so I’m guessing that people are starting to understand how this weapon is supposed to be played.Footman: vs. Especially with those long drags that people don’t know how to deal with. Getting kills with the maul is very easy and super satisfying.įor me, it’s the most ‘satisfying’ weapon when it connects. You will often kill people with one heavy attack if they’ve been already damaged before. To play the maul effectively (which I do 50% of my game time), you need to move a lot, pick people off and learn how to hit behind them with big sweeping strikes. It’s also surprisingly effective when cleaving with heavy attacks (yes, they go through multiple opponents), but make sure you don’t try to do it with light attacks, because it’s a blunt weapon and those stop on contact. You can one shot knights with the special. There are other weapons (like messer) that have the same ‘base’ damage, but maul also comes with a huge 50% damage modifier against knights and this makes it extremely dangerous to them. This is because maul is the highest damaging weapon (as far as I know) in the game. You see, a good player with the maul can absolutely devastate people in duels and team objective (or any other modes). It also comes with a very interesting premium ‘skin’ so if you’re a fan of these massive swords, go for it! The MaulĬonsidered by many to be a ‘meme’ weapon, I have to disagree. However, cleaving through multiple opponents is definitely better with the greatsword, so it might just be your kind of weapon in team objective or deathmatch and FFA. It works in duels too, but I’d give messer and longsword the edge there. If you want maximum range and damage, go with the greatsword. I am 50-50 about it so I don’t typically play it, but you won’t go wrong if you master it, even in big battles. However, if we’re talking strictly about duels, then the longsword is arguably the best sword (apart from short range ones) in the hands of a competent player. It’s easy to duel with, it has good range and speed but the damage is a bit lacking compared to the other ones. This is a very good weapon overall in terms of its speed and recovery. It’s kind of a mix between the two I guess. Simply because it’s faster than the greatsword, and it has better damage than the longsword. But none of this is enough to make me dump it for any of these other two, so I keep playing the messer in big battles most of the time. It’s outperformed in terms of range by the greatsword, and longsword has a slightly faster stab and possibly slashes (easier recovery). It has great damage, very good stab (even after being nerfed), fast slashes and good range. This doesn’t mean that if you played with the messer sword you’d be easily killing everyone else, but overall if you had to pick one weapon to give yourself the best chances of dealing with a wide variety of opponents, this would be it. The MesserĮarly on when Chivalry 2 came out, this sword was generally considered to be the best weapon overall. There are many other great weapons that we could be talking about, but these ones should do for now. We’ll talk about the messer, longsword, greatsword and maul. But don’t worry, I know what you want to know and I’ll tell you what most players consider to be the overall best weapon at the moment and why. I’ll cover a few of them and give you my thoughts, but ultimately, the best weapon is the one you’re having the most fun with. Let’s talk about the best weapon in Chivalry 2.
