== Overview ==

Swordmen are honest and as stubborn as the strong waves of the ocean. With strong physical attacks, defense, and a sense of command, a Swordman can become a headstrong leader to others. Swordmen continuously train to gain more skill and strength. 

After reading King Tristan 3rd's official notice recruiting adventurers, swordmen join with the hope of becoming ever stronger. Equipped with strong armor and weapons, the brave swordman joins the world of adventure.

=== Stats ===

*[[STR]]: Increases [[Weight Limit]] and [[ATK]].
*[[AGI]]: Increases [[ASPD]] and [[Flee]].
*[[VIT]]: Increases max[[HP]], HP regeneration, resistance against several [[Status Effects]], Soft[[DEF]], Soft[[mDEF]] and the efficiency of healing items.
*[[INT]]: Increases max[[SP]], SP regeneration, resistance against several [[Status Effects]], Soft[[mDEF]] and the efficiency of SP recovery items.
*[[DEX]]: Increases [[Hit]], [[ASPD]], and [[ATK]].
*[[LUK]]: Increases [[Critical]], [[ATK]], [[Perfect Dodge]] and resistance against several [[Status Effects]].

== Equipment ==
Swordmen can use many weapons in RO, but only a few of them are suggested for use. The equipment and weapons will change once the Swordman has become a Knight or Crusader. 

*[[One Handed Swords]]: i.e. Blade, Ring Pommel Saber, Saber. These are a good choice for a Swordmen, since Sword Mastery affects these weapons. However, their ASPD is lower than that of a dagger, but do more damage on medium sized monsters. (The ASPD increases to that of a dagger after becoming a Knight or Crusader, however.) 
*[[Daggers]]: i.e. Main gauche, Stiletto, Gladius, Ice Pick. Also a good choice of weapon since Sword Mastery also applies to daggers. ASPD of daggers is higher as a Swordman, but do less damage on medium and large monsters compared to a one handed sword. Daggers do 100% to small monsters though, which is useful against Metalings. 
*[[Two Handed Swords]]: i.e. Katana, Bastard sword, Two Handed Sword. These are not the best choice for a beginning Swordman since the ASPD is lower and a shield cannot be worn with one equipped. These are excellent weapons for Knights, though. 
*[[Spears]]: i.e. Pike, Trident. Swordman rarely use these unless to take advantage of their range to attack Greatest Generals from afar. However, one handed spears are great for Knights, while two handed spears are best for Spear Quicken Crusaders. Two handed spears can also be used on Knights to get high damage without the aid of a high level Provoke, but shields cannot be worn simutaneously. 
*Anything else: i.e. [[Maces]], [[Axes]]. Stay away from these. They will have very low ASPD and damage output.
