Mauls.....are they underrated?

[tzone92]

My friend thinks that the maul is the best weapon ever. He tells me he can hit 12's with it...I can easily hit 12's much faster with a rune scimitar..

[CampbellMC]

IDEA!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The new fighting torso (+4 Str) is very weak to anything except slash, therefore a KO with a maul would be way easier then one with a dds if you have good attack and str. The only downside is that you only get one chance for a ko, rather then the 4 chances you get with dds.

[mojo477]

well dds is a whole lot less accurate well what i like to do is use dds spec 2 times then use the maul and hopefully kill then in 1 normal and 1 spec hit or in like wildy just try killing them with like a d scimmy when they have low hp and think they will win i whip out the g maul then hit 3 times

[mojo477]

i also hope they make the spec 3 times cause i would like that

[jjrox32]

Hehe I think it's just a brick. :P Along your line of logic, with maxed str bonus on a DDS (around 80 :wall: ) and 99 str, you can hit 8 34's in 4 seconds. Keep in mind that the maul is actually used quite a bit by pures and lower levels.... once again, most people prefer the DDS, and then a whip. With the DDS you have a higher margin of error: with the maul you HAVE to get all 3 attacks high, and if not, you're sunk, out of specs. With the DDS you have 8 attacks to get in 99 damage at the very most.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Never thought something I said would be siggified. Kinda freaked me out :shock:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On topic: I see them used mainly as a KO wep for low level stakers.

Lol, let it sink in, the first time is always weird :lol: .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As said before, I prefer a DDS over the maul spec. Not only because it's way better, but because it looks much cooler too :lol: .

[tyrant_iv]

ahhhh no......mauls are an insanely slow hitting weapon, if you can move that thing above .000003 km/h then you must have 99 str..lol... i know your str lvl doesnt mean you hit faster if you were about to criticise me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

or does it..... :shock:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but anyway they are completely pointless ,d scimmies and d longs are heaps better and about the same price.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

wooot my whip ownage ftw!!!!

[aj926]

I saw a ranger ko a guy for a whip with a maul. It's special is better for rangers vs melee.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don't ask me why, i don't know. But you should have been there, it was glorious.

40 str bonus ;)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I love it. Since it's crush, It flies right through platemails... :D

 

 

 

And it IS powerful.. Yeah It's underrated.

[Lunar_Drifter]

It's the fact that it's a lovely KO weapon for lower leveled pures, around 45-55. I used it quite a bit as a KO weapon on my Granite Maul pure when he was a member. Quite a lovely tool. But it was glitched a while back where if you clicked too fast on the special bar, it'd use all of the bar, but only spec once... Kinda stunk how I lost kills like that.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So basically, if you can't wield a DDS, then your next option for a KO is a Granite Maul! Woot!

[thargor01]

Mauls aren't bad if u can't afford anything better IMO

[Lunar_Drifter]

Of if you can't wield anything better.

[ewan]

It sort of bugs..half the topic is filled with off topiccomparing it too other items and using it for training..I onbiously mean for pking?

[jessy87]

b4 it was nerfed, the gmaul was the weapon to own.

true but I can in both case's I'm just saying for poorer players

[Stephen9o3]

a friend of mine ran into the wildy with only a gmaul for a free trip to fally, used special on someone, and actually k0ed him :S

[Myweponsg00d]

I wouldn't rely on a maul to get me kills, but it IS really fun to play with in CW.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also I always keep one on me if I'm dueling, incase someone wants to duel with the shield spot on.

[Overflow_C]

Poor for regular training, great for pvp.

 

 

 

I have one personally :wink:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And theyre dirt cheap \

Not true.

 

 

 

Gmaul = 80k

 

 

 

DDP(++) = 50k

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

just so you know.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

on topic: I think mauls own for pures for example if anyone has seen Dream Rat3 will know what im talking about. A blitz and gmaul special combo is the bogs dollocks. :-$ :thumbsup:

[ewan]

Woot finally some people are agreeing that it owns! \

[n64jive]

I actually thought the mauls special would be better for KOing then DDS...but the thing is...it is actually not that accurate...at 95 attack i hit 2 zero's while using the special about 10 different times i tried it. Also, people do not realize that poison is a lot more useful then it seems...What i mean by this is people will bring full load of sharks rather then sacrifice a shark for an anti poison...every poison hits 3 times, right? so this means that:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6*3=18

 

 

 

5*3=15

 

 

 

4*3=12

 

 

 

3*3=9

 

 

 

2*3=6

 

 

 

1*3=3

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

18+15+12+9+6+3=63

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

63 damage can be done...not to mention it can help with KO's..

[ssxisfun1]

I see your point but i would say its under-rated becuase if u think about it the maul can hit 3*43 in a second!thats 500 exp in a second but dds can hit more then 43 maybe not in 1 hit but it can hit a 25 and if u use a special that could be a 50! and u have 4 specials so clearly the mauls good but dds is kinda faster and better if u use my way and my opinion. \ :thumbsup: :D

[drgnslyer_15]

personally when i get em from gargs i alch em.. can be bothered too sell em

 

 

 

the reason not many higher lvls use em they are insanely slow and as XP mentioned not very accurate...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I mean they were really cool when they came out but died off rather quickly

[Senseiwoodcut]

DDS spec is superior. However its a good wep for lower levels.

[Hevendor_Guy]

I'm sticking with dds. Maul is too reliant on luck for me.
