Page questions

Hey guys:

I plan to make a Page so I can get my Critical Ring for my DK. However, I have a few questions:

- Is it worth it to get a crappy att shield (<7 att) on a "temporary" basis?

- Which weapons are the best? I'm stuck on deciding whether to use 1H sword (must have att shield), 2H sword, and 1H BW (must also have att shield)

1) I think you need at least.. 10 ATT Shield or higher to outdamage a 2H weapon? Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

2) Swords deal the most average damage.

Just use a polearm in 1st job for its long range or a two-handed sword if you want a little stabler damage. A one-handed weapon's range is a lot smaller than a polearm's.

2h swords are the most economical 1st job weapons (buy clean and 100% them) but it doesn't matter much since 1-30's pretty quick. The Lionheart used to be the strongest 2nd job weapon period, is now 2nd behind the Japanese Map.

Thanks for the input guys.
