Stats

This is a list of the stats required to learn ALL the forms of a set

The weapons have been listed in order of best to worst. Keep a note on the fact that although staff is one of the best weapons, it requires the second least in stats to be used.

There are six main weapons: Swords, spears, staves, axes, daggers and Ashandarei. Each of these weapons has a set of distinct forms, though they all share the level 0 and level 1 forms. All other weapons may use only the level 0 and 1 forms. As well, each weapon has different types of attack forms and defensive capabilities. The four types of attack forms are: Thrusting, Slashing, Swinging, Overhead listed in order of increasing damage and decreasing speed.

Ashandarei are capable of using all four attack types and have forms that are very fast and do moderate to heavy damage.

• The rarest of all weapons (next to Spear for non-Aiel), even if you manage to find a practice weapon, finding someone who can actually teach you Ashandarei forms is something else.
  

Staves are capable of using Thrusting, Slashing and Swinging types and are moderately fast and do moderate damage, but are very good on the defense.

• RP benefit: most people don't think that a staff is dangerous.
  

Spears are capable of using Thrusting and Slashing types and have forms that are very fast and do light to moderate damage.

• RP: it will be next to impossible to find lvl 7 forms unless you learn them from an Aiel. That may be as difficult as learning Ashandarei forms. Unless you are an Aiel, of course. Or a Deathwatch Ogier.

Swords are capable of using all four attack types and have forms that are moderately fast and do moderate to heavy damage.

• Probably the most common weapon that people have. There are one-handed and two-handed swords.
  

Axes are capable of using Slashing, Swinging and Overhead types and have forms that are slow to moderately fast and do heavy damage.

• The only form that Wolfkin can get to lvl 7. There are one-handed and two-handed axes.
  

Daggers are capable of using all four attack types and have forms that are very fast and do light damage.

• RP benefit: you can hide daggers very easily. This is also the only forms that Assassins can get to lvl 7.

Other notes: Ashandarei and Staff are Two-handed weapons. Thus, if you plan on using them, gain the 'Dodge' skill. The other weapons are all one-handed, and you can either choose to dual-wield (if so, gain 'Parry') or you can use a shield (gain 'Shield Block').

Dodge: gives you a chance to avoid forms and arrows
Parry: gives you a chance to avoid forms
Shield Block: gives you a chance to block forms and arrows
