Nevermind. I misread your post as if you suddenly brought in a 250 lb sword. I was like "Wait, I couldn't have let that get past me."

Vin: In your post you say that Zooll is Vintrict near the edge of this plateau, Before I post... How far is "near"?

I'm guilty for not seeing some of the things brought into this tournament, so that would have made me even more guilty.

We're totally ending this fight by sliding down the slope into the water.

Reach Vin: In your post you say that Zooll is Vintrict near the edge of this plateau, Before I post... How far is "near"? Basically at the edge before the slope begins. Probably like a foot away from the slope-beginning part of the circular land on top of the mountain.

XD Two hundred and fifty lbs sword? ******** that, Vince would just throw that s**t.
Nah, it's roughly 10-15 lbs, which was the average greatsword back in the day. True enough that's heavy for an average human to be swinging around and it will easily tire them using both arms, but Vince isn't human, and is very finely built, so he uses it one-handed.
Trust me. I've no intention of using two-hundred and fifty lbs swords. Wtf would you do with that, anyway? Use it as a bludgeoning weapon?

Pip hasn't unleashed it yet, but some of his approved equipment is a guillotine.
Yeah. Guillotine.
I'm excited for Round 4.
Somebody's getting ******** up.
Screw your 250 lb sword, you know exactly what's coming up against a guillotine. It's going to be awesome.

You wouldn't do anything with it, except do some deadlifts.
It's 250 lbs in a long piece of metal that you're trying to pick up by one end, as opposed to somewhere that evenly distributes the weight, like the middle. Chances are, the thing isn't even gonna budge for the wielder XD.
At most, if you were heavy enough, you could spin in a circle with it. But I imagine you would have to outweigh the sword.
The further you go over the 10-12 pound mark for a sword, the less and less ability you have to control it and use it. Even for a super-strong character, a heavy-duty sword would be like.. 20-25 lbs. At that weight, what you have is more of a bludgeoning tool than a sword. You don't control it, you just try to direct it as best you can. Finesse goes out the window.

I think the heaviest one I seen when I researched great-swords sometime in the middle of the DT was 15lbs 4 ounces. That was for a sword about as long as Vince's, but I think it was six feet in total with the hilt and not seven and a half.
@Reach: What the ********? He gonna wield that s**t like Voldo? XD

With a 250 lb sword, you'd just give it to Cloud Strife and point him at your enemy.

It'd be my characters limit break. He carries that s**t around on his back the entire fight and then limit breaks and hands it to Cloud Strife to annihilate his enemy.
Sounds pretty /gg to me.
