Slashing weapons are hard to use in the beginning, but they are worth it
when you become skilled enough. You can parry hits with most of the
slashing weapons, so using a shield and a slashing weapon is a good
choice for a skilled warrior who seeks for a good combination of both
offense and defense.
Good hits with slashing weapons can cause heavy injuries, which can bleed
for a long time.
