The Redeemer... your opinions?
Joyousguard asked over on Stratics about
I got The Redeemer. One of my first UO artifacts. When I used to play with my paladin I would use it against the DF. I think it was terrible. But it wasn't bad either. I don't know if I used it right.
The 5 second swing speed is a real jip. It is also irritating it can't be repaired by a deed.
I don't know. I am curious, do you have a use for the sword? If so, how do you use it?
With the DF I would basically turn on whirlwind and run into the fracas with DF targeted. After the swing, regardless of the outcome, I would run out and wait and heal and wait and wait and then run back in to do the same. On successful hits it was pretty cool. I could see the direct damage effect of my swing in his lifebar. A massive strike, but I don't know if there is anyway to overcome the swing speed.
My paladin skills and stats need work, but is there another way to use The Redeemer?

Even with an Assassin Set and a Daimyo's Helm equipped, for a total of +30% SSI, the Redeemer is still way too slow. Only way you can get it to become fast enough to be tolerable is with Assassin Set+Daimyo's Helm with Divine Fury cast and Honorable Execution used to kill something, with 150 Stamina. That caps it out at 60% SSI and you swing it once every 1.75 secs.

When Jeremy read the thread,she replied.
Man, you guys are spoiled by all this fancy armor. What ever happened to jousting? (Mount up, run by your opponent, whack 'im as you go by, get out of range, recover, repeat!) This weapon is perfect for that.
