The executioner's axe, specifically the Beheader Axe and the Bowed Axe, are very effective weapons for the Vanguard, though they do have a bit less reach than the similar Dane Axe. 4 Executioner's Axe – Beheader Axe, Bowed Axe The glaive is an excellent choice for just about any Vanguard strategy, but it does have downsides that other long-range melee weapons don't have, thanks to its gigantic low-damage handle. The downside of the weapon, though, is its relatively low damage compared to other reach weapons. The glaive is an extremely effective weapon in the Vanguard's hands, as it lets them both chase down enemies and keep their distance from oncoming foes at the same time.
The maul has a chance to crush the enemy's head, too, and the giant face of the hammer means you'll be connecting hits above the neckline pretty reliably. The Vanguard benefits off of huge attacks, even if they take a second to cool down from, and the maul successfully lets the Vanguard take out an enemy with a leaping strike. The maul is similar to the cudgel, in that it deals blunt close range damage, but it has a little bit more reach and swings a little bit slower to deal more damage. Use the battle-axe to break apart the crowd and thin out enemies without worrying as much about taking out allies on accident. The Battle Axe is best used in close combat situations where teammates and enemies alike are warring it out in a cluster of blood and steel. RELATED: Chivalry 2: An Introduction To Every Class & Subclass It's a great close-range weapon for the leaping strike, and it's the only melee weapon that can be justifiably used over a longer-reaching one. The Battle Axe is the best close-range weapon for the Vanguard bar none, thanks to its reliably huge damage output and its damage potential against all class types. Short swords are great for situations where a longer weapon just wouldn't cut it, like on maps with small corridors or against teams that like to bunch together. The two swords available to Vanguards are longer than the Archer/Footman's arming sword or broadsword, but their reach still pales in comparison to other, more effective weapons. The short sword is, perhaps surprisingly, not that short of a weapon at all. The hatchet is another short-range weapon available to Vanguards in Chivalry 2, and although the class doesn't do well with short-range weaponry, the hatchet makes up for its lack of reach with its damage output.Īvoid leaping strikes with a hatchet, except to get into combat initially, and instead try to focus on swinging often and connecting those hits. 9 Hatchet – Hunting Hatchet, Utility Hatchet The relatively small hitbox paired with the Vanguard's low health makes it a bad choice in most situations. The cudgel isn't the shortest-range melee weapon Vanguards can use, but it's the least effective. Vanguard excel when they can jump into battle, deal serious damage, and get to a better position for another leaping strike – short-range weapons just don't cut it. The cudgel is a relatively short-range melee weapon available to Vanguards in Chivalry 2. 10 Cudgel – Holy Water Sprinkler, Spiked Club, War Club This strike deals more damage and has a good chance, on a good hit, to instantly kill most enemies. It's a great class for taking advantage of open enemies thanks to the Vanguard's ability to charge forwards with a leaping strike. RELATED: The Hardest Online Multiplayer Games, Ranked The Vanguard is a class that is more than willing to rush into the fray of battle, get a few mighty swings in, then duck out before the enemy has time to think. The Vanguard class in Chivalry 2 is a perfect blend of the speed of the Footman and the strength of the Knight.
