First a hammer, and now a.... MACE????

"the thing that's getting me is that i put 5 points into trip's damage."

Hammer vs mace is a subject that gets beat to death here. If you do a search you will find lots of useful comments. I was carrying both hammer and mace for awhile and put 5 points into trips cooldown so as to match bleeds cooldown. I could then trip, switch to mace and bleed while trip was cooling.

This was before I learned how useless both trip and bleed are as compaired to bash. IMHO trip should act like a stun and cause the beast to "stumble" thus missing the target (you). Bleed should due just that. When I am bleeding I am losing an amount of HP over time.

True but the game designers do fail at life on subjects like that.

I personally am switching to my blue mace when I reach lvl 70, it'll cost me alot though since I gotta buy all the mace mastery and bleed DX

someone else said this before also i think
you can't really compare the game to reality
if you really want to then
fighter with a giant axe should 1hit ko cleave you in half
archer 1hit ko headshot you
mages will burn your a$$ off

its sooo slow D:
I seriously fell asleep watching my cleric spin around

lv50 not so much though

I switched to mace at 50 because I compared at 49. At 49 I had a +5 mace and a +9 hammer. I figured I would be able to do the same or more damage with a mace. Considering hammer speed is slow and the CD for Trip is forever. When I switched I noticed I was killing things faster. IDK maybe it was just me but that's what I noticed. And the ability to use Bleed twice in 1 Trip CD was worth it to me considering they offered the same damage. Mind you I hadn't put any points into to Trip. You may probably equal out the same but my benefit is I haven't put points into Trip/B;eed so I can pump my Bleed up. (For the record I already maxed Bash.)
