It will be boring as hell. just put it in alpha 1st.
Okis now I want hear facts SanJorge.
Here is my facts:
Fact 1) Claymores looses in base damage for great mauls 3d6 VS 2d6 AND ALSO for halberds 3d6 VS 2d6.
So: Especially in "bersker stance" (that I always use.) You loose pretty much damage Claymore VS Great Maul
PS. Even with speed factors higher base damage wins.
Fact 2) Normal xp / loot hunting (about 90% of time I play) I always choose great maul over halberd because of flurry. So that why no halberd. (Flurry + thunder clap is best moves in PVE)
Fact 3) Claymores flurry + cleave combo is NOT effective in normal (like dragon / shadow folk) hunting (about 90% of time I play.. maybe even 95%)
Fact 4) Claymores flurry + cleave combo is effective in special situations (like 1%-5% of game time?)
Like: I can cleave + flurry combo "The beholder". And yes Claymore is here BETTER than great maul. But this is diversity!
So:

Why the heck I should use claymore over great maul in "normal hunting" if it have worse damage and worse specials (Normal PVE hunting)?
I think this is just rage.. but tell me if u got facts.
Also tell what is that "clear reason" to use claymore NOT great maul?
