Just a heads up - the Swordsman skill of slow sword should now be removed.
This should be in effect already.

I'm so excited this was finally removed!! I was just talking about it this morning and I will definitely not miss it!

If someone had a use for this and complains... Please tell me exactly how this skill was useful, because I nor any swordsman I know, has ever had a use for it

It helped me tank for low levels and my pets

Q yo sepa esa habilidad te daba mayor defensa con los lvl mas alto. A mi si me sirve esa habilidad soy espadachin no me gusta q hayan quitado esa habilidad sin nada a cambio bueno eso es lo a yo pienso

Yea, me too.

I should clarify - my comment is mostly a joke... the game, and especially the sword class in most people's opinion, is better off without this skill... somebody had to be the first to cry about it, I figured I'd make a joke :p

If skills are ever reconsidered, it is possible that this could be added again - but I don't see how the slow sword is better in any way opposed to the freeze sword - they're both countered the same way, and, it's easier if your opponent doesn't move as opposed to moving very slowly. Having both could be considered redundant...

So, to any who have good arguments about the skill, please hold on to them for skill suggestions. You can make a post suggesting as such if you wish.

Thing is, removing the skill was decided to be made in a step towards balance.
Other things may change in the future - who knows?

But, I can truly say that, far more players complained about the skill than said good about it.
Those who had good to say about it (to me, anyway), I can count on one hand.

So...r they planning to replace with another skill?....maybe a multi-hit skill?
