Simon's Guide to Sharpening your Steel

 Whether your starting out with a rusty cutlass or looting with a Legendary Blade, Swords have been and most would agree the easiest weapon to use.In this guide I will explain how to level you Sword and the different types of Blades.

Sword Types
In the Game there are 3 main groups of Swords:Sabres,Cutlasses and Broadsword as well as the Cursed Blades you have the ability to find after completing the Raven's Cove Story Quest (after you defeat El Patron you gain your first cursed blade).

Sabres
Sabres are useful when you are fighting a single enemy such as a Boss.They allow you to gain more hits on the Enemy therefore; gaining more rep.However they give the lowest damage out of the 3 groups,so be sure to make sure you are topped up on tonics before you set off.

Sabre Examples

 * 1) The Emerald Curse -Cursed and Legendary many pirates agree this is a useful weapon to have by your side
 * 2) Bitter End - Useful if you want to defeat the Rage Ghost as it has the freeze weapon Skill

Cutlasses
The Cutlass is the first weapon you recive in the Game and allows you to attack a single enemy(unless using Sweep).It gives powerful blows to the enemy thus increasing your Pirate's Survial rate by a large ammount
