Parrhesia Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) Blades... Heh. I just use a quarterstaff. Nonetheless, I don't think you should underestimate it either. They say that wooden rods are among the most potent carriers of chi energy. If you think the most useful property of a quarterstaff is the chi, I think I'm estimating your skill at a safe level. I'm just going to turn my back and start eating a sandwich while removing all of my armour. I might even start stabbing myself in the chest repeatedly to give you a shot at almost hitting even odds. I think Nightmare can sort this. Oh, yeah. A katana? Arming swords're where it's at, brah. NICE.

Original Alear Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) I'm wondering if Fayt has read any of the wheel of time books. There's a part in which one of the characters uses a quarterstaff to take down two sword-wielders that are, if not quite masters, already really good with the sword at that time. And later on become two of the best in the books with swords. It's quite amusing. And then some Warden talks about how some guy fought 100 battles and only lost one, to a farmer with a quarterstaff. EDIT-Losing to a farmer with a quarterstaff on your 100th battle = total buzzkill. Edited January 23, 2011 by SeverIan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Rey León Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I WANT A KATANA. The only real sword I own is a freaking rapier. And a model longsword. I also own nunchucku, but those belong to my uncle and he'll be asking for them back any day now. My armory needs improving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Rey León Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Wait, sort what? He has a lot of mail and no one sorts mail like you do Nighty~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furby Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I am present. You wish to fight? To test your mettle against my might? Considering your current avatar and sig, it's more like "Test your might against my metal." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narga_Rocks Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 And then some Warden talks about how some guy fought 100 battles and only lost one, to a farmer with a quarterstaff. EDIT-Losing to a farmer with a quarterstaff on your 100th battle = total buzzkill. Oh right. That part was funny too. Of course, part of the reason that Mat won that was because they completely underestimated him. Also was that after Rhuidean or before?

riariadne Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I have no weapons. But, anyways, that's awesome. :D How did you know, though? Did they tell you or did you see it or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
