Re: Parasite in City [New Comic!]
Yeah agreed on blunt. Bladed weapons need to be maintained and can easily get stuck in a target. A lot of swords and such are known to break pretty frequently in battle as well, a lot of people don't realize that. Katanas are especially fickle. People think katanas are like the ultimate swords because they're created in such a special way but it was really just because the people in that period creating them didn't have much steel. They aren't really better than any other sword of the period (Watched many videos comparing various swords against katanas lol). Not only are they a bitch to maintain apparently, but without proper use they can break very easily. They are fast because of how light they are though for what that's worth.
Agreed with the above poster, would much rather have a claymore (If I could even wield one properly ) than a katana when it comes to bladed weapons.
I'd probably go with a (Titanium if possible) crowbar. Multi purpose, some weight and reach but not too unwieldy. Fireaxe is nice for the versatility but I think they're pretty heavy and have terrible balance. Nothing wrong with a good ol baseball bat either. I might even take a hockey stick over most blades. I have no training with blades and would rather not have to worry about cutting myself and getting infected lol. That or worrying about blood splatter.
Pretty cool channel to check for ideas on weapons is ZombieGoBoom on youtube if you've never seen them. Their tests aren't always the best quality wise but the quantity makes up for it. Not many channels test weapons they way they do.
