How do you actually hit something with warglaives?

[Justpassing]

Apart from the fel rush, how exactly can you hit anything with them?

[Darkeon]

About the same way one hits something with anything.

[ONCHEhap]

Very awkwardly
I guess you can bring up the back blade towards the target,then bring it down again,but not too much or you hurt yourself with the other blade

Pretty much,you can't put any power behind any of the hits,and you always risk hurting yourself

[Count Zero]

As humans we're not agile/dexterous enough to even imagine how they're used

[Racthoh]

very very carefully?

[Deleted]

you spin like cazy

[Hashtronaut]

Pretty sure they're slicing based weapons, so somewhat like a samurai sword.

Can slice with the top end and back end, probably quicker than others.

There are physical limitations for any humanoid body that can't be surpassed though.If a fel-enhanced elf is able to actually hit hard with a warglaive,they'd be able to do much,much more damage with a more practical weapon.no matter how strong,dextrous and quick you are,warglaives have a very low striking power and high self-harm risk

Samurai sword were poor slicing weapons though,more striking weapons than "slicing weapons" (which aren't really a thing),on top of being clunkier and heavier than most swords of their category.In a combat,slicing(a.k.a. Draw cut) is the weakest cut you can possibly pull off

[Skorpionss]

Same as with any weapon, after tons and tons of practice. With Warglaives even more so since if you fuck up you have a higher chance of hurting yourself.

But more technically, I imagine that you lock your wrists and move the arm at the elbow/shoulder to slice your opponent.

[Dark-Zarupia]

You use your entire body and swing your arms sideways, You just spin around doing backlfips and shit, You are suppose to dance with those glaives not fight with them.

[Lime]

The same way you would use a double-bladed lightsabers, just without as much risk.

[ls-]

IRL you don't At least not w/ the ones Havoc DHs use.

[Deleted]

You throw them at your target and draw real swords

[JCD000]

You don't, one of the most unpractical weapon designs... though I'm sure some people on here think you actually can, most likely the same types who believe asian swords are better than everything else.

[Randominterwebdude]

Annoying that they are even called glaives. a glaive is a polearm with a longer one edged blade. no idea why blizzard went with glaive. i mean they look cool but would ultimately be useless other than to hurt yourself, outside of felrush/ or some sort of spinning style of fighting which would have you too dizzy to be useful.
thats all.

[Snes]

You throw them in the dumpster and grab a sword.

A lot of anime avatars around here, brace yourself.

[sociald1077]

Well seeing as how its the inverse of a Bat'leth, we need the inverse of a Klingon. An emotionally stable, logic driven character who has the life span long enough to learn to master it. A Vulcan. Which is basically the space version of an elf.

So you you take an elf, you train it to not kill it self, and you hit things with it.

TLDR: Its fantasy, not everything needs a basis in reality to realized within itself.

[Arrashi]

You don't its absurd weapon based entirely on rule of cool.

Please,not all asian swords as as bad as Katanas and the like :P

[Eazy]

Just like that.
