I think..Ive done it!

Due to me being an uber nerd since I got hooked on fiesta and a long time player of online games I've figured a class that will bring axes into the equasion through a random chance.. Literally!
Why do people not use axes? This I asked myself I saw maybe 5 warriors since I started playing (November 10th 2007) and then I saw the time ratio on the axe .. 1.5 seconds per attack rate indeed this is slow.. but what would happen if the axes damage COMPLETELY made up for the lack of speed? thus I came up with this formula for axe users who dont have to worry about their damage also it makes skills more effective -
Forumla - 3 levels into end 1 into spr. through doing this you increase your crit rate your sp (making skills more useful due to the low SP count to begin with) as well as 3 end tanking behind it due to this you will lose some normal damage but once critcals go off on heavy hitting axes the monsters will fall quickly making leveling more effective - The critical ratio may look small (a shocking 0.02% each 1 spr you place into effect) however criticals often go off without any critical booster.. if you can increase your chances of a critcal on a tank knight that dues mostly in HP.. Why not use an axe to recover the defense you lost by using a 2 h weapon to begin with? Just a thought just a thought;P but it makes sense to me and if anyone can understand what im saying and thinks I need to twerk the class a bit just tell me and Ill look into your idea personally thanks -

I have no idea what you're talking about.

If you're a tanker, who went pure END and decide to just use Axes, what's the point of even putting points into END when a non-END player with a shield has more defense than you?

Axes are better for STR types, not END types.

^str is useless. to me, that is. it boosts ur damage like so little. better off with spr and increasing ur crit rate.

Actually str is more useless due to the bonus damage it gives you with the axe since the axe has naturally massive damage as is the best way to go is increasing your critical rate and skills to make the axe more effective due to the slow attack rate hence the SPR to increase the MP and crit rate, its an old school build from a game that was set up similar to fiesta with the stat distributes exept it was wisdom instead of Spr lol and it did the same thing I could see putting some points in str for the 2 handed sword but no other than that as for low defense im talking about a crit character not a defense tank just high HP and high % of crit rate not so much on the defensive side of things with any 2 handed weapon that would be a double negative lol

Axes are better for STR types, not END types.

Actually Spr is better for Axe Wielders.

Axes are better for STR types, not END types.You're right! I'm a pure STR and I use axes because if you're tanking in a party with clerics it woulden't matter what you use.
