Category:Great Katana

From HorizonXI Wiki

Great Katana are two-handed weapons with moderate delay and damage that are used primarily by Samurai, although Ninja can also use several of them. Great Katana tend to boost average melee stats, although some of the most desirable Great Katana have additional stats that improve TP gain, assisting the Samurai with their job as a master of TP.

Great Katana weaponskills tend to be single or dual-hit weaponskills, which gives their weaponskills more reliable (but less powerful) damage than multi-hit weaponskills on similar damage weapons. Great Katana weaponskills are also strategically placed on the skillchain chart, allowing their user to easily participate in practically every skillchain, once again lending itself well to the Samurai's mastery of TP.
