User blog comment:Thousand Troops/The Warrior is not an Advanced Vocation/@comment-5977759-20130111204903

i travelled around most of the game as a warrior and it was actually fun for me. i had great timing for my charge up attacks. first time i fought the drake i knocked it over once, used the arc of deliverence with perfect timing and killed the drake with it. it is slower by all means but adds an element of strategy in terms of timing attacks to dodges. u mash less as a warrior and learn when to strike. in any rpg ive ever played, katanas and claymores were already two handed weapons. a claymore specifically is a two handed weapon and is pretty famous in nordic lore. and the katanas in rpg's r usually exagerrated. in ff12, the katana is reminiscient of ff7 sephiroth's masamune. its definitely not as long or menacing, but it is much longer than a that of a standard katana. or were u saying that instead of being two handed oriented it should have a few exclusives? big f'n swords or bfs are staples of RPG games, would cloud be as cool without the buster blade? n thats coming from a ff fanatic. while i agree that the warrior class is not as connected to warrior as the other advanced classes are with their basic classes. the option for sword and shield or bfs will always be an option in fantasy rpg
