When stabbing with alt (with swords), pull your weapon in closer to your body as opposed to extending your elbow out. It's much more accurate and stable.

Alternatively If it's a two handed weapon it is recommended to hold right click first, then drag your mouse to aim the weapon. Then from there double click and hold left mouse (you can try alt a little as well but clicking is more stable)
This is a much more stable and accurate stabbing pose, and a proper halfsword thrusting stance.

To practice your aiming, there's two different ways you can keep your FOV.
Third Person- with Low FOV, so you get a closer view.
or alternatively;
First Person- with High FOV, so you get a wide view of your weapon and it's positioning.
-# note, this works best for polearms or two handed swords

# stone sedge What is in a pre workout?
  • Caffeine: This is one of the most prevalent ingredients. Caffeine is a stimulant that helps increase energy levels, improve concentration, reduce perceived exertion, and delay fatigue. It can also enhance fat burning.
  • Beta-Alanine: A non-essential amino acid that aids in the production of carnosine, a compound that buffers lactic acid buildup in muscles. This can help reduce muscle fatigue and allow for longer, more strenuous workouts. Beta-alanine is often responsible for the harmless tingling sensation (paresthesia) some users experience.
  • L-Citrulline (often as Citrulline Malate): This amino acid helps produce nitric oxide in the body. Nitric oxide relaxes blood vessels, leading to increased blood flow to muscles. This "vasodilation" can improve muscle performance, reduce fatigue, and enhance endurance during exercise.
  • Creatine (often as Creatine Monohydrate): A well-researched compound that helps muscles produce energy (ATP) during high-intensity, short-burst activities. It can improve strength, power, and muscle growth over time. While some pre-workouts include creatine, it's often recommended to take creatine daily for consistent benefits rather than just pre-workout.
  • B Vitamins (e.g., B3, B6, B12): These vitamins are essential for energy metabolism, helping the body convert food into usable energy. They can also contribute to reducing tiredness and fatigue.
  • Taurine: An amino acid with various benefits, including supporting brain function, potentially aiding in muscle function, and helping to neutralize some of the negative side effects of caffeine.
  • L-Tyrosine: An amino acid that may help with focus and mental alertness, especially during stressful situations like intense workouts, by influencing neurotransmitter production.
  • Nitric Oxide Precursors (e.g., Arginine, Beetroot Extract): Similar to citrulline, these ingredients contribute to nitric oxide production, promoting improved blood flow to working muscles.
  • Electrolytes (e.g., Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium): Sometimes added to aid hydration and prevent muscle cramps, especially during intense or prolonged exercise.

What determines sharpness in half sword weapons?

jade wadi
#

hewwo there again kittens

zenith dirge
#

harmless prank to do to the homies

neat tundra
# scarlet creek What determines sharpness in half sword weapons?

If a weapon looks shiny and brand new, it's usually sharper than a weapon of the same type that is less shiny and looks used.
Within the trainer or enhancer, it seems most weapons are split into 3 tiers.
There is variation within tiers, even in the same weapon group, because the blade is designed differently.

scarlet creek
#

I'm asking because I'm thinking on making custom weapons for half sword

#

and some metals make better blades

#

would you rather have a iron sword or an aluminum sword?

# scarlet creek So material determines sharpness?

It could, it might just be some other thing affecting it. but one of the weapons in the vicious weapon pack, the side arm sword for the harpoon is really dull and doesn't seem to want to chop into or dismember willies.
You could try asking bitter relative in #modders-guild-hall

I think it could just be the tier of blade and the lack of mass, but he will know more than me.

"โ€˜Glaiveโ€™ could in the medieval period refer to more or less any bladed weapon, including spears and also swords. This makes the weapon type people think of as glaive also fall under that term, however it is not the only weapon which does for the most part. A good example of how broadly the term glaive could be used can be found in Le Jeu de la Hache, where both a pollaxe and a sword are called โ€˜glaivesโ€™. In english, thereโ€™s an account from around the year 1500 which reads โ€˜...bill, that which some men call a glaiveโ€™. In other accounts however glaives are listed separately to both spears, swords and bills, which means that in those cases it can be taken to mainly refer to the single-bladed polearm most people associate with it today, seeing as how itโ€™s a very popular weapon in art in both england and france/burgundy."

#

hema vs gacha games vs 40k

calm relic
#

paid for braces, vambraces, cuisses, greaves, custom rondel knee and elbow cops, tempered steel lames, custom leather work including dye for the color i wanted, custom sizing and pattern/trim work, delicate sizing measurements, shipping and labor fees, it all adds up.

The guy can't just do a 1 on 1 for the cost of crafting it either. he has to make a profit lol.

Like for example I know a guy whos in his 70s and has more armour than you could believe, he has this full 15th century suit that he keeps saying I'd fit in well (me and him are both the same build), and it worries me a bit since he's getting on a bit now.

But like, I even get discounts from people simply for knowing certain people.

he had a technical malfunction with his jacket and was like "i'll have a new one coming in soon. it'll be the last one i have trouble with."

i'd argue the cheapest century to kit out in is probably 15th century if you dress like a t4 footman...

lot of these guys are underground af, because it's not a business for them. it's a hobby

You just gotta ask the dudes with armor who they got it from, aka mull for example introduced me to matul

England is a very different place than America clearly. Last year I went to the battle of tewkesbury medieval festival, when I was packing my stuff into my car I looked at the bald man who's car was left of mine, thought I recognised him from somewbere, it was scholagladiatoria.

pearl coral

heck yeah

There's another guy I saw at Tewkesbury, I had no he idea was a youtuber, I only knew of him because he was at Tewkesbury with particularly fancy armour and I've got a bunch of mutual Facebook friends with him, Zach Evans he's called iirc

I do NOT jest like that, do not postulate that inquiry to me

This year I will become known at Tewkesbury, I won't be a lowly spearman like last year, I'll be covered in plate armour, but I won't just be any fully plated knight, there's hundreds and hundreds of em, I'll be the fuckin juggernaut.

pearl coral
#

i would love to see a reconstruction of those helmets a little more like this

#

looks a lot closer imo

#

although i think his gorget is better suited

calm relic
#

Such a close design to the face makes it seem like a klappvisor lol

#

probably why they're so few

pearl coral
#

i wouldnโ€™t say theyโ€™re so few, theyโ€™re just overlooked a lot of the time

#

a lot of manuscripts and even a few effigies show them

calm relic
#

turns out people wanted their visors a bit away from their face to absorb more of the blow

#

did not feel good...

idle crest
pearl coral
#

true

calm relic
pearl coral
#

heโ€™s obsessed with gladiatoria lol

idle crest
calm relic
#

cannot blame him

#

that's what i meant, but flat faced bascinets/early klappvisors had their visors pretty close to the wearers face and one blunt hit square to the face was bad news regardless of the helmet. but if you were in that situation anyway........

idle crest
#

Distance from the face doesn't matter unless the weapon caves the visor in to the point of actually touching you

calm relic
#

the construction and shape definitely helped distribute the blow better than just a flat impact

idle crest
#

The shape yea, not the distance from the face though

#

Like I said, deflection

#

Convex visor would also be harder to damage or bend

calm relic
#

large crumple zones helps prevent injury

#

kinda like a car

idle crest
#

You're never going to crumple a visor like that

calm relic
#

well, lessens. your brain is gonna get concussed regardless

given the excess padding

Historical replicas also aren't built for war

calm relic

he ate em', this is him on the left

idle crest
#

Alot of buhurt helmets are made of titanium, which has a much lower tensile strength than steel. Historical helmets would have been made properly, not machined, work hardened, tempered, etc.

#

Modern helmets are not built the same

calm relic
#

that's why they use like hot amounts of padding lol

idle crest
#

You don't need so much padding if the helmet itself can take the hit

calm relic
#

It's like wearing a fuckin quilt

#

thems buhurt rules or something idk i dont partake

#

those idiots barely hit each other more than they grapple and toss

pearl coral
#

This is my armor i Hope you like it;

calm relic
idle crest
#

Like people dont realise how drastically different steels can vary in strength, there's a reason many replicas can be caved in with a melee weapon yet you can get steel plates as thick as medieval armour which can shrug off most modern firearm rounds.

neat tundra
#

I assume anything stronger or equal to the hardness of the steel in a sword should be able to stop a sword.

pearl coral

its definitely some aluminum garbage

Per capita isn't the total ๐Ÿ˜‚

merry wyvern

Youre literally misunderstanding it but okay

merry wyvern

You're also only evaluating fatal knife crimes

idle crest

"Per capita refers to per head or per person in a certain number in a group or population. If the term is per capita 1000, it means the average estimate of something in a population of 1,000 people. If the term is per capita 100,000, it means the average estimate of something in a population of 100,000 persons. "
