User blog comment:Lord Loss/Discussion of the Week: Greatswords/@comment-109.156.198.104-20120417184944

Personally.....*deep breath* I HATE Great Swords.I finad them slow,clumsy and innacurate,despite their inate unparalelled strength.I never use them.The only time I ever use a Great Sword is for Tigrex Quests,and even then I do it begrudgingly.

I think it's Great Sword for 3 reasons:

A.That's how it is written in the game.

B.When I see it written as one word it looks stupid and I can't say it/read it without saying/reading it twice as fast,which is also stupid.

C.I forgot in my mental ranting.Sorry >,<

However,on a whim,I tried beating a Yian Kut-Ku (when I was a beginner) with a GS and it really worked.But I still find them abhorrent,and hold Long Swords in favour of any other weapon.Hence why I always use LSs,and even if it's unadvisable to to use a LS against a certain monster,I'll try it anyway.If I can't do an Quest with a LS,I don't do it at all.Simple as.
