Double Sword
The Double Sword is a Miscellaneous melee weapon. It is not used by any unit and is found only in the Unit Creator.
Characteristics
The Double Sword is a sword with a blade on either end of its grip, forming a quarterstaff-like weapon. It can be swung with incredible speed at the cost of inferior damage. Their attacks deal moderately low damage but have slightly faster speed than average; the weapons have moderately long range combined with moderately long leaping and lunging movements. Damage done often depends on where the weapon hit; impacts from the tip of the blade will deliver more force and damage while a hit from the lower blade to the grip will deliver less. It has a very short cooldown period after an attack and can attack much more frequently.
The Double Sword also allows for a much longer attack range than most typical swords. Boosting its range is the ability it give units to lunge into their opponents to quickly close in the distance. When wielded properly with both hands, units start their attack by swinging the lower blade up toward their opponent's face, with the next attack using the upper blade to swing it from the side to side.
Trivia
- Contrary to popular depiction, such a weapon would be quite impractical due to the chance of hitting yourself with the unwieldy weapon it would be.
