1hShield or 2hmedal

So, currently i have pretty decent 1h sword, but no shield... Both shields and medallions are a pain to find. I guess what I'm really asking is if the speed difference is really worth going for?

@TripleBladez: Wow, never knew.. seems like I'm going to get decent SI/+1 attack speed inner instead of decent SE.

[quote=Rianael]I thought Pallies and Heroes all hit speed cap of Faster(2) with a 1h sword without the need of an extra source of speed. If one goes 2h, that's when you need an extra source of speed?[/quote]

1-H Swords are typically fast (5), so you'd need an extra source to hit faster (2). 2-H Weapons are usually normal (6), so you'd need two extra sources to hit the speed cap.

As for the TS: Refer to [url=http://www.basilmarket.com/forum/2796758/2/#45449142]this post[/url], specifically the last part.

[quote=cb000]Yes, it's just the MPE pots. However, since 1h swords are fast 5, you need an extra speed boost beyond the booster to reach faster(2) with a 1h sword so that you can use the MPE pot to go beyond it.[/quote]

[quote=GeneralStore]Do SI and inner ability bypass the speed cap as well? I thought it was just the mpe pots.[/quote]

[quote=cb000]Yes, booster + MPE will let you hit the cap with 1h. Of course, booster+SI/InnerAbility+MPE will let you go beyond the speed cap.[/quote]

Just wondering, would I hit speed cap with 1h w/ just the MPE pot?

2H wins in the long run

I personally like the look of a 1H Sword + Shield enough to not switch though
