Well the longsword has the 3rd(?) best range in the game, if you allow the felling axe (Shortest range in the game, less than daggers) ontop of you, I would hope you would lose. Try moving backwards. Thats like claiming the longsword sucks because you died to an archer before you caught him.

You're doing it wrong, blocking has always been confusing and a skill you have to google, as its hard to figure out for yourself what you're doing wrong. I could tell you the solution as I know exactly what you're doing wrong with the blocking/riposte, but i dont want to encourage use of such a faggot weapon, Sorry

Again, the riposte isnt what makes the weapon the best melee in the game by far. Read >>1833740
