he will tell you the same thing i said. buy yourself a PvP weapon and a War weapon. cant always have convenience over others.

why not ask me what i do, i use the longblades, and i love them, they are great in pvp and hideout attacks as well, just have to have the stats and skills to back the weapon up

Back when I was a war monger in SV I always had 2 weapons for wars, pvp whip and Yoda's saber for the hideout.
It's a pretty simple process, however even in the hayday of Hosping wars I would get caught every once in a while with the saber and not my whip. However the saber was good enough that it wasn't that bad.
Also in regards to an Axe hitting a hideout better than a sword...What do you use to chop down a tree (no chainsaws)? So in theory an axe will always do more damage than a sword no matter your offensive skill with the weapon. Hince why there is a military assualt skill....DUH

My stats aren't best but still a good 8 pts above the minimums for my weapon, and i have 5 ranks of longblade and 3 in military assault. Axes and swords come in all different sizes, I don't see why a large sword couldn't do as much as an axe, ever seen a real claymore, they're friggin huge. But as i seem to be the only one who cares i'll leave it.

Axes wedge more than swords do, unless you're using that buster blade crap..
Anyway, I use my Shogunate for PVP and my pistols to destroy hideouts. Match made in Hell, thanks. :>

The sad fact is.. nothing is perfect. Once you get an hold of the nodachi or shotgunate, the longblade will paint you a different picture. Personally, if you want to win a war, the best hideout weapon should be use. Even the ionized axe does not cut it.
For you, I recommend an Ionized Axe for the hideout, as you go up, you should consider getting the SB-1 for hideout attack and the Ionized Nodachi for PvP.
At my level, I used the Alchemist Whip for Great hideout attack. And, the longblade for Great PvP weapon. Works out wonderfully.
