But you need strength to throw a pommel.
2 true bro
with great strength you can throw a massive Pommel
Brajany but you can't end him rightly if he kicks your shield into your face hard enough to rip your face open. and that requires a lot of strength
No, you need only Rightioness

Your voice actually sounds really cool
Kamil Szadkowski Yeah I agree.
It sounds different for sure. It's not like he sounds like himself, but slightly sick. He does sound different.
I didn't notice anything wrong with your voice
I think your voice sounds good as well. It's a little more articulate than usual, I guess, which sometimes is a consequence from having some problem with your voice.
Kamil Szadkowski Exactly. Especially when it hits the lower notes.
Dude your voice sounds pretty deep...wisper in my ear.
something like suprice?
Janik Malkovich yes
you are a naughty naughty boy
and you need to get punished
Janik Malkovich harder daddy!
Armored Gamer so someone watch to meny team4star videos
I'm not masturbating Mom, I'm building strength for rapier fencing!!!
Nathan Cosgrove I am not masturbating son, I'm building strength for bow drawing.
But you're only doing short strokes?
@@nomadpi1 ouch
This is so good, such excellent points about muscle groups and weapon weight variants, I loved it. Thanks so much Skall for adding to this great discussion! I’m so nerding out right now ^_^
Hello Shad, i watched one of your videos and finally understood what the others meant with you "Rambling forever" 0_0
Still the video was very insightful, good video. You know your stuff! I hope you have fun with whatever your doing right now! *Insert thumbs up*
he was completely wrong about the muscles needed to draw a bow, it is not the lats mainly, especially in the movement he demonstrated, that was rhomboids, middle traps and rear delts. don't give props when you are ignorant as fuck on the issue.
@@louiscyfer6944 my dude, calm yourself
louis cyfer lol roid rage much buddy?? lats are still useful for drawing a bow you aggressive man child
Why can I hear this text?
The Estoc of course. All the casuals use them.
Real men don't take their DEX beyond 10. But don't tell anyone you leveled that up.
R1, R1, R1, R1, R1 all day every day. I keep one as a backup just in case I get invaded.
I'm still biased towards Bloodborne, though. Pure Arcane builds are truly broken.
Do you mean they are really good or really bad? I'm going to start my first run through bloodborne today but I can't decide on what build I will go with.
Arcane builds are OP as all hell. Start out with the Cruel Fate background, dump into Vitality until you hit 40, then into Arcane until you hit 99. Get the executioner's gloves from Cainhurst Castle and the Auger of Ebrietas as soon as you can after killing Vicar Amelia. Feel free to wiki what you feel the need to.
The early game is hard, but eventually you start taking out bosses in under a minute.
Sixteen fucking strength.
932vlad just get 15 arcane so you can use the hunter bone
obviously the best answer is to go for a quality build
Q U A L I T Y
16 STR 10 DEX is all you need. Dump the rest into VIT and END, slap some MLG gear on and git gud.
MLG gear includes MLGS, hahaha!
I hadn't though of that. And I forgot the most important part of the build too, you can't be a giant dad without "Well, what it it?"
Bass canon?
Skall, my son, you've become a man.
lol
spøøky mike søcks I mean, it's idubbbz holding a crossbow.
you must now choose. will your use modern weapons that can kill from far away .. or use outdated medieval weapons ?
but
but
but
a modern firearm cant cut through rice paper
and a obsolete sword can
that means the AXE is mightyer than the NUKE
Using high cholesterol with high sugar method adds body to a pommel to richly choke down said persons fingering the axe or belly buttoning the nuke.
Estoc, Bestoc.
Aestoc comes after Bestoc.

Man, that Lockwood Longsword is so beautiful, I love how it looks so much.
The lightest sword I have ever held was a short 19th century pipe-backed Swedish naval saber. It was *insanely* light - it literally felt like a toy.
I also got to handle one of those Albion Lichtenauers once and they are really, really well-balanced. Absolutely nothing about them feels heavy.
As a fantasy writer who does her best to make combat and weapons in my book realistic, this video was quite helpful! Watching your videos is really helpful for my research. 😄
As someone with myasthenia gravis, I find this extremely helpful and considerate. I've always wanted to try HEMA but my medical condition has always dissuaded me a bit. Thank you for this video. C:
I am entering graduate school to study exercise science, and I have a background in human biomechanical, physiological, and ergonomics research. I love how you tie in body mechanics with the techniques you talk about. Well done, sir! Keep up the good work!
7:51 I just have to say, that this is the most beatiful sword I've ever seen...
Same waht is ut ?
My take on weapon uses in RPGs (specifically D&D 5E)
The specific kind of strength to wield a rapier and the specific dexterity required to wield a longsword are your proficiency in those weapons.
ALSO! Dexterity is just a different kind of fitness than strength. Dexterity is for precision and specific strikes, strength is for hurting people real bad no matter where you hit.
Side note: Dexterity weapons in D&D 5E can be used with strength! "finesse" weapons allow for the choice of strength or dexterity in your fighting style.
That "new" voice made me question my sexuality.
it is weird indeed
I stopped questioning mine after having listened to Harmful Opinions and Undoomed.
same
Sheol_IK if its still attack helicopter you're good
I dunno. Have you seen those clips of the Saturn 5 taking off? Every time I watch them, I get my asparagus staging all screwed up. Rawr.
I'm gunna go ahead and say Shad is not Shad from Shadbase.
But Shadbase also covers a wide variety of thrusting weapons
TheMorbidHobo no, it Shad from Shadiversity
TheMorbidHobo xD
I wasn't the only one, i feel better about myself now
I'd say that's a fair bet, yeah.
Thanks for making this video Skall. I am not the strongest person out there and I figure the lighter the weapon is the less force I need to make it move fast, making me seem stronger and cutting tests easier. I thought my only option was to use a short sword and it's nice to know I have some other options. Again thank you for the help and for making so many wonderful videos.
I really like how you put notes in your videos now. Simple, non-intrusive and "classy". Pretty cool!
And that voice sounds cool as well! :D Although of course, I do hope you are ok.
Thanks for the awesome videos!!
Skallagrim, can you please do a tutorial on how to succesfully give someone a papercut?
How to align the edge of the paper properly?
Spear all the way! Easy to use, wood over metal mass, and long range to compensate shorter limbs.
If were talking about purely blades, a two handed longsword (a "light" one) would be way more manouverable and confortable than a single handed one.
Come on, We all know the right answer is firearm.
I'd say that depends, and deserves a better explaination than I can give; I am not an expert but some firearms can be heavy and absorbing recoil from some also needs strength, so you can discount most rifles, heavy revolvers, shotguns etc. Basically that leaves you with SMGs and Semi-automatic pistols.
Padraic Smith I would say that an assault rifle is perfectly manageable for a weaker person as well, especially if with a fore grip. 5.56mm NATO doesn't have terrible recoil.
Well, I was talking about the ones coexist with cold weapon back in the day...
T2266 Pommels are even lighter, and much deadlier. You just need good aim.
As I said, I am not an expert, but only somewhat familiar, as being a weaker person I've had difficulty holding a rifle steady whilst stood upright. The topic probably deserves it's own video on the matter. As for using weapons that were used alongside swords and the like, I would have thought they'd be even heavier, some muskets were very long and had large ammunition that would need a thick barrel. Furthermore, using such weapons, a soldier would often have to use it as a club when enemies approached, which would most definitely require strength.
I like your voice that way. Not that your normal talking is somehow annoying or anything, it's just very refreshing to hear this :D I always find it quite funny to be in this condition normally for a day or so... assuming this comes from a cold or something in your case.
5:53 INCREDIBILIS!!!
ETIAM!!!
I guess I'll contribute with a somewhat late _DUNMAHGLASS!_
those Filipino swords are fucking beautiful
love your videos. always interseting and easy to understand
Things I learned from Skallagrim today. My favorite melee weapon, the rapier, is pretty metal.
Nice.
The pommel seems like a good choice if your enemy is at close range.
Silver Chariot Pommel is superior in all ranges
Silver Chariot - Dane axe and pommel is the ultimate combo
the pommel is always the best choice if you want to end him rightly.
That depends, does YOUR sword have a pommel?
Skele Stone anything without a pommel cannot be used to finish him rightly. only to finish him leftly. this means talking him to death and isthus not swordsmanship.
correction on the bow part: There are different ways to use a bow, you can use your arm muscles or the back ones. It depends on your anatomy and your trainer which one you will use.
Your video has taught me a lot and I love your channel I'm already subscribed.
It occurs to me as I'm sitting here watching a bunch of your vids, I would love to see you do a discussion of cane swords (canes with swords concealed within the shaft of the cane). I find them fascinating. Cheers!
I did a bit of fencing with a rapier when i was young, legs muscle was damn important that was almost the only muscle work we did.
Hi love your Chanel can you talk about British brass knuckles as I'm unsure every website says different
I love the idea that you've brought up the Estoc. Two handed thrusting swords should be mentioned more! :D Axes also seem to be a good fit for someone with less raw strength because swings feel more powered by momentum then muscle.
This is an old video but I recently got into your channel and I love it, great job. I've watch I think over 50 of your videos already lol.
Ok, here is a follow-up, opposite question, one that I see seldom asked and never answered:
In an otherwise perfectly realistic scenario,
1-What would be the ideal weapon and more generally fighting technique (including possibly shield and armour) that is the best suited for a warrior with MASSIVE physical strength? Say "Nathan Jones or Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson" level and type of strength?
2-Pushing things a bit further, what about warriors with a superhuman level of strength? How can an increase in physical strength can benefit combat prowess in a way other skills can't?
Because, obviously, it doesn't require an inhuman force to deal a deadly or incapacitating blow with a regular medieval weapon. So one could imagine that, because "overkilling" an opponent is pointless, dealing stronger strikes or handling a heavier weapon would not be much of an advantage. So how could an unusually physically strong warrior make the best use of it?
Not an expert by any means. But either some bladed polearm like a Glaive or Naginata for that nearly inhuman level. And if you are superhuman, it can't hurt to have something a bit unwieldy like a large poleaxe or something like a big cleaver. Basically if you have the strength, it can't hurt to use something that a normal human could not. (Not counting speed.)
Depends on what you're fighting, but honestly? Bows benefit greatly from strength. If you can pull something on the order of a 1200 pound draw, your bow is hitting like a heavy crossbow, without the need to span it with a windlass.
If you must have a melee weapon? I'd go for something like an igorot axe or a pick. If your enhanced strength lets you wield a top-heavy weapon with greater ease, you're the designated anti-armor. You're also a holy terror in a grapple, which is the other way knights die.
Skall-senpai you sound like a totally different person.
Another great subject, brother!
I tune in 30 minutes after upload, and already 2,500 views? Skall, you have an awesome community! Congrats, sir
HOLY SHIT. you saying "It's pretty metal" with that voice XXXDD
You could probably do movie voice-overs with that new voice. xD
skall, im happy to see you are able to keep up with youtube's new algorithm and uploaded 4 videos a week for the last month and all that good quality content. also, your voice sound better like that
Thanks. :)
Off topic: I think in this video you showed the most awesome swords from your collection! Really amazing!!
Can you do a video for the opposite? Someone who is naturally strong but has a harder time building up endurance?
What's the news from the other provinces? Hello
9:48 This filipino sword actually looks a lot like the elvish swords from lotr
And Sting is obviously a xiphos.
Know this was a year ago, but that’s because it literally is. Those elven swords were inspired by this Filipino sword. They had all kinds of professionals come in and demonstrate different sword types and their techniques, and it was a Filipino woman who brought this type of sword in and inspired them the most for the elves.
WOOAAAH this "rough" voice is.... awesome. it actually sounds smoother than your normal voice.
I think smaller early swords with a small shield are a good option, sword and buckler works well too with the right training. I was also surprised that the smallsword was not mentioned, even better a spadroon which was designed to be light and nimble like the smallsword yet able to hold its own against other larger weapons.
That's the "POINT" of a rapier 😁
Puns lol.
Oooh, jazz voice Skalla :D
I was impressed by the knowledge you demonstrated in this video of strength training and different types of strength, a lot of people who focus on martial arts primarily or completely, often undermine or misunderstand basic principles about real strength and its applications (i.e. Matt Easton from Scholagladiatoria often referring to Bodybuilders as an absolute measure of strength), while powerlifters, Olympic lifters and ofc "Strongmen" would make IMO far better examples of the highest strength standards.
And ofc you also have the uninformed people who attribute far too much importance to strength, specially when it comes to armed combat.
well done sir
Another great vídeo Skall :]
technically speaking you're not trying to cut through your opponent's armor you're trying to stab under the plates were the armor isn't there it's funny how many people don't understand this concept👏.
if your opponent has plate armor...
Meister Proper same principal for leather armor why try to cut through tempered leather armor when you can get through the rib cage by stabbing someone in the armpit the throat and the hands are also usually good points provided they are not protected in some way.
leather armor is not a thing
Georgica Ionica so the gambeson doesn't exist apparently also called leather armor for those not knowledgeable on the subject
The narcissistic cannibal Where have you heard of a grandson called leather armour? Gambesons are usually made out of many linen sheets...
>let me talk about the rapier
Wut r u? Casul?
Wt rings u got bithc?
Were you two having a stroke when you were typing, or is that an acute case of dyslexia?
@@JanetStarChild It's a Dark Souls meme
Thanks for the info Skall, really loved the Estoc part ;p
Great and informative video as always!
As someone who in fact does a lot of strength training (Strongman-like training) it would be really interesting if you'd make a video that shows the other side: historical weapons that would benefit the most of physical strength!
Even if I don't really think you'll ever notice this comment,I really hope so and that it might inspire you to make such a video!
Would be really curious about that topic! :)
Keep on being awesome!
All the best greetings from Germany!
I once discussed the matter with my friends and the general agreement is 9mm pistol ;)
I heard that thelegend27 can weld every sword ever made with his big toe
The Divide Don't you mean a single quark of his body?
Damn is this meme already 4 years old
Same thought here about the meme being that old already
This video is great, I appreciate the upload. I was wondering whether the same advice could be applied to earlier swords (pre-dating the Long Sword).
Arming Sword (Oakeshott Type X, Xa, XI, XIa, XII, XIIa, XIII, XIIIa, XIIIb, or XIV)
Falchion (Thorpe, German, Hattin, Gothic, Medieval Falchion, 12th Century, or 13th Century)
Axe (Orleans Battle Axe, Bowman’s Axe, Viking Peterson Type L Fighting Axe, Viking Short Axe, Short Bearded Axe, Viking Type B Axe, Viking Fighting Axe, Peterson Type C Axe)
Dagger (Quillon/Cross-Hilt/Knights Dagger, 11th-12th Seax/Scramasax, or 11th-12th Century langsax)
Spear (Boar Spear, European Spear, Lance Point Spear, Leaf Shaped Spear, Medieval, Fullered, or Winged)
Pole Arm (Bill Hook, Fauchard, Guisarme)
So this is the first video I watched on this subject (Cause' you're my favourite
I thought the historical weapon that required the least amount of strength was gonna be "an acute intellect" or something stupid
An acute intellect is a good bonus for any weapon.
Can you do a "1000 degree English Longsword" video?
To heat a sword to 1000 degrees would remove the heat treat, or temper from the blade of any good sword
Ideally, one would need a strong "chain" ... strength, coming from the root(footing) through the musculo-skeletal chain, towards the weapon - or bare hand(s).
Awesome vids, as always!
I think the longsword would suit me best. Good topic for a video skall!
I need to add something for all those who were thinking of a spear.
- no crossguard
- no pommel
- ROUND HANDLE.....
==> shieeet weapon
hah funny joke
I was almost expecting a Final Destination joke there. :P
you are incorrect as there were spears that had all of thoes
But the reach though and most of it is wood. Any person with any amount of strength could just pick it up and do just fine.
Tell this to the spartans! :p
Can someone tell me why some swords have a rounded tip? Why not have a pointy tip?
Christopher Solares They were primarily used for cutting, and a wider overall profile meant more force behind those cuts.
Christopher Solares
edit (Some of) those with a rounded tip are made for sparring.
Practice swords
there were historical swords with rounded tips, they were used as specialized executioner's swords. Quite a few of these survived because they were still ins use until ~1800 (in europe)

that doesnt explain the katzbalger however
or woodcuts of german soldiers with longswords/ 2 handed swords with rounded tips
This is actually the best I've ever heard your voice. Usually you have this weird accent but not here.
Going to sound thank you a hundred times over. Needed this insight
Do a video of "Weapon for strong people."
"Weapons for strong people: Whatever they happen to prefer". Done.
16 strength
10 dex
40 int
40 faith
+10 chaos zweihander
Will win any fight
Skalla I don't know what you did with your mic but your voice is sounding fantastic on this video.
Great video
And, what about weapons that require great strenght?
Zweihander, pike and halberd
A lot of people greatly over estimate how much muscle mass in arms helps.
The parts of your body that need to be strong for mos tasks are legs, core and back. Forearms also help a in a large variety of ways, but your pecs, biceps and triceps, the ones that most people associate with visually strength, are linear in what they do, so you generally don't need a lot of muscle there.
Depends. Weak base is just weak, but stronger forearms means stronger hands. Strong hands alone let you do usefully odd things otherwise impossible. There's a difference between mirror muscle exercise and useful upper body strength. Something like Bruch curls, Blakely presses, and maybe PJR pullovers for example: Those curls give you explosive biceps for hurling/throwing, grappling, and prying your way around an opponent's weapon in melee. Technically, uppercuts too. Those presses allow your elbows to take heavy pressure in the extremity of flexion, so you can shove/drive/rake much better in a tight clinch, whether it's limbs or weapons. Those pullovers kinda connect the "jerk" of your pull-up strength to the "drag" of your row strength, which can be handy in grappling across the betweens, if you know what I mean. None of those will particularly make you "big" in any "pretty" way, so most gym goers won't ever do them, but the effects are significant, relative to bodybuilding versions or even powerlifting "cheat" versions. As a longtime odd lifter, I mostly only noticed when I stopped doing them that I couldn't function near the same, in a sudden clinch or general life. Grip is fucking huge.
Nice video!!
sorry about voice but if it's any consolation my GOD u sound like a boss haha (I mean ur normal voice with ur accent is also cool don't get me wrong haha)
on the topic of speaking, man I love ur channel, u speak so eloquently, always bring to great points, and never put others down.
>not getting swole to one hand a zweihander
Also, someone please disparage me for trying to greentext on fucking youtube.
consider yourself reprimanded
Nevets t. Smith is it a chaos infused zweihander?
Wonder if there is a secret weapon art in dark souls that allows throw a pommel.
xD
Tarek AL-Jawi that's what the crow quills are
that's sure is deadly
Notification squad HYPE!
Also, Skall, which historical survival-based weapon do you think would be best? I'm talking multi-use that you can use to do other things than just battle other huamns with, maybe hunt, maybe craft with (Such as knives.) or skin (Knives), or maybe battleaxes for the potential to chop wood, or warhammers for some quirky use I haven't thought of?
I really enjoye that deep voice ahahahahaha! very good video as always :D
Honestly the old spear once again kind of has to be mentioned, most weigh about 3-5 lbs so not much more than a sword and give you the reach advantage
Skall you are always sick or beat up.
REALLY cool channel
a quick point (ba dun tss) about the rapier requiring less strength to use, as a fighter myself I can tell you swinging a sword of any type is always more of a strain than thrusting, since a rapier is trust centered, it is alot easier to use in many cases, however things it does require are leg strength, speed and alot of stamina (not certain if skall talked about it I'm typing this while the video loads)
You sound sooo badass. )
Something I was curious about.
In GoT you see one of the White Walkers using an odd weapon to fight Jon Snow. It's basically a sword with an extremely long handle from the look of it.
So what are the advantages/disadvantages of this sort of weapon design?
Best images I could find of it.

Dairthe Something little similar would be the Japanese Nagamaki, it's a compromise between a Naginata and a Nodachi/Katana.
I think there is a video around, can't exactly remember by whom, you might want to check out SnapJelly, KnightSquire or Shadiversity ;-)
Radyachman Radyan
I'm not really sure that balance is an advantage or a disadvantage. It's just going to affect whether the weapon is better at stabs or cuts, and I'd have thought that this sort of weapon could handle either. Besides which you could adjust the weight of the weapon with things such as pommels and fullers, so you should be able to get a blade shaped like this balanced properly I'd have thought.
I don't really know much about that sort of thing though so I might be wrong.
GandogarFS
Thanks, I'll go start looking. :D
It looks to be similar to a Svärdstav, seems reasonable

Dude, your accent just change like magic....I like it! :D
You should really link to your zombie weapons video. That was a good video and hit a lot of the same points so it ties in nicely. Plus it's a good chance to get some extra views.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say rapier.
Derek S Definitely not. Rapiers are about as heavy as a longsword, and need to be used one handed.
Really? I was thinking because they are skinny blades, that they are lighter. Huh
Derek S Think the same amount of steel, but in a much longer shape.
Ah alright I get it now.
Derek S You are probably thinking of a sword more like an epee. Here is a picture of Matt Easton comparing an epee to a more usable sword:

It is so good to see videos about people discussing a topic and having fun while doing it in this endless sea of flamewars between people in echo chambers on TH-cam.
Ive got a potential video idea for later, its a bit nerdy in its star wars related. Its to do with the 7 saber forms and their applications compared to historical or tradition sword fighting or fencing techniques. I am aware a couple arent applicable due to their fictional focus being on ranged combat defence but it would be interesting to hear your take on the matter. Another thing that would be interesting to hear about is the matter of double ended bladed staff weapons of if they are feasible for use or just a matter of fiction to sound cooler.
Legend has it if you're early enough, Skall will reply to your comment...
The legend is a lie, created by yourself.
Legend has it that its getting old, very OLD!
+JC Denton no it was created by the legend27 hahhaaha...never mind...
If you put viable argument in your comment then Skall will most likely reply. So move your ass, read some books, use your brain and commit something viable to the discussion. We're all gonna appreciate this
+Kamil Szadkowski who peed in your Cheerios this morning? lol as far as a valid point I don't have anything to add I was merely adding to a section which will be over run with pommel throwing references, which is my right as much as anyone else's.
I thought the sling or staff sling would be the best weapons for people with low strength. They may require a lot of practice to be remotely effective but the actual mechanical motion of it is very light on the muscles and the weight of the weapon/ammo is practically negligible.
And of course, if you load the sling's cradle up with pommels you have a medieval Fat Man from Fallout!
Ever wanted a Atlatl that's great for piñatas? Have a sling stick!
another advantage to a quarter staff is once you get it moving its momentum and the use of fluid attacks make it easy to get powerful strikes
5:50
very satisfying _swoosh_ sound swinging that Gladius
just went to my first Hema class last night. thanks for introducing me to it
doesnt take much strenth to end them rightly
I swear sometimes when you say rapier, it sounds like your saying rape here. For example, "Let me comment briefly about the rape here." "Well, a rape here is actually very heavy." or, "With the rape here what you mainly is the endurance type of strength."
Your voice is so much better now. Please stay like this.
The amount of times you said point while talking about the rapier made me chuckle.
