- How do you deal with the healers?
- (this is important) What do you pair (other weapons i mean) with your WHB?

Thank You!

*Note: I know that the WHB is not a very popular blade at all but I've decided to the most unique route (skolver and all that jazz) just to be cool XP

Wielding any sword from the

Wielding any sword from the cutter series makes it really satisfying to start mashing your attack button. I'll be honest with you, half the time I just completely unload on the target being healed and out damage the healer. It's frustrating to fight a Wing as it's small and can easily escape, however when it's in a corner it's as good as dead.

I normally just pair a Gigawatt Pulsar with my WHB.

Tehe, pretty much! It's so mindless it's fun XD But mindlessness aside if you can aim it right you can take down lots of things. Wings are definitely the hardest, but I try to keep myself calm when dealing with them by thinking about how hard it would be for a gunner.

Gah are you the same person i posted 2 long posts to in another thread!?

Edit: YOU ARE that person!!!!!

Meh..

For menders,
If they are seperated, I unleash slash spamming on them until dead. If in a group I use my gun or other weapon.

Guns to pair with:

I only really have 2 main guns I use: Blitz Needle and Polaris. I have 3 Loadouts Named "Average gear" and then a number after it to indicate which gun it has. For example if I'm in a Beast stratum Id use Average gear 2 which has my FoV, WHB and Blitz needle.
Constructs and gremlins? Average Gear 1 with Polaris destruction.
Average Gear 3 is for my to-be Valiance for random fun.

Wings? Easy. if you mean Silkwings, I get close and endlessly attack with WHb until they drop dead. If its one of those bat-like creatures i wait for them to start their attack then WHACK! Sword in dere face and it stops their attack plus if theres a group you can also spam them with it for a quick kill.

If you aren't the same person from before, Search up a thread with a similar name to this with Xylka or Xylka-Mkii and you'll find my posts

More detailed than needed but meh, you wanted answers, I provided them.

PS WHB is epical wolver fun! :D

EDIT:
In case anyone else needs that info....
Heres my old posts:

I call it WHB to make things easier (typing on a 3DS and all. :/)

The way I use the WHB is different than many people say. First off, I love the look of it and its fun to show off. that is the reason i got it as my 3rd 5* sword.

UVs on it (UV meansUnique Variant)
Charge Time Reduction: Medium
Damage vs. Construct: High (could be VH i forgot :P)

With this on it, the WHB has a total higher DPS than my Levviathan. Both level10. and i wear Full Skolver with a Crest of Almire shield.

How i use it:
My Damage per second (DPS) Trumps my Leviathan if i get in 4 normal hits with the ghost wolver. Its already faster so even with a 2 swing then cancel, then repeat,I get higher dps on most enemies.
Wolvers: for them i just plain swing like crazy, even in T3. usually i hit them and if they teleport...well... they will either glitch and atrack in the wrong direction, even alphas, or ill hit them too.
Chromalisks: can kill with Proto Sword in t3. Too easy. WHB is overkill
Gun puppies and Lumbers: 2 slash, shield, spam the WHB until dead while dancing around them. On the Gun puppies, you can use the charge for a near 1-shot kill. (charge, shield cancel, slash like crazy.)

Zombies: 2 slash, shield, 2 slash shield, run back to shoot them a bit, repeat. The reason you run back is because it is likely that they will hit you if you try to repeatedly 2 slash-cancel them.
Retrodes: same as Zombies

Spookats: Wait for them to charge, then rush in slashing, shield as they charge, repeat. Nothing hard here.

Jellies: 2 slash-cancel, repeat and shield bump if needed.
Tons of jelly: slash your way out

Ive taken my WHB to Vanaduke and won before. My equips?
Skolver full
Blackened Crest or Dark Thorn shield (done with both)
WHB
Leviathan
Gigawatt pulsar

The WHB is good for any boss.
Snarbolax: He is a beast so great DPS within the short time frame hes stunned.
Roarmulus Twins: Takes advantage of DPS in the short time span yet again, but slightly less effective (RT is Construct)
Jelly King: Slash him to death. Charge attacking is fun too but less efficient (cant shield)
Vanaduke: DPS is great during stage 1, 2, and 4. Arguably better than a CIV or Leviathan.

All of that is assuming everything has no added bonus (UV or armor boosts etc.).

Thus you can safely say, if used well, the Cutter series is quite worthwile.

However in most cases Dread Venom beats it because poison is overall better than a Beast bonus. I used to say this:
WHB for show, Venom striker for pro.
That is a lie. Its preference based.
Now think. Would you want a chance of poison on every hit, or look epic while attacking.

I chose WHB and it is partnered with my Leviathan, FoV, and BTB.
I will never part with it, nor get a DVS (Dread Venom Striker).

PS: The UVs on my WHB were upon crafting it. I was so happy! ^^

Forgot to add in... Gremlins:
Forgot to add in...

Gremlins: Slash away. Shield if they attack. Works great against many of them

Silkwings and Mender: Slash non-stop if alone from a group. 100% they will die.

Greavers (the bats): I HATE these so much. if they charge to atrack you spam that WHB. It will interrupt their attack and leave them open to swatting away.

Devilites: No real strategy- OFFICE SUPPLY INCOMING!!
Shield and get close to them, after their attack, counter them with a 3-5slash. usually works.

Trojans: Wait for them to start the attack animation, run behind them dodging the attack, spam attack OR charge attack will hit them ~4 slashes.

Thats all i can think of at the moment. feel free to add on if i missed an enemy.

Hai Xylka!!

Tehe, yep! Sorry for being such a questioner... Anyways, I kinda lost the other thread & I felt like I needed more answers x. x I know, noob queen concerning the WHB. I just get really indecisive these days because I made some really bad gear mistakes early game- this way, I won't mess up when it counts ^.^ I never did manage to friend you! You should show me how to conquer the world with the WHB XD Can I have your IGN?

I'm not sure yet... I think I'd have to fight with it a little in order to figure out the right names XD
