Guns are honestly better than swords, but they aren't any good when it's OA. I prefer swords though, because in truth, they are faster than any of the guns you use. Sci-fi or not.
I still would side with swords. Glitchy, yes, but who's fault was that?
Guns, they do take skill, extremely a high-leveled one. RCL guns, not so much. Just a few dodges and shots and basically do that everyday, and boom, you're a god.
No, just guns take more skill and swords broke with the new animation update, that's when everyone stopped using them. You can reach people from 50 studs and it takes no skill anymore unlike in 2013 when I did it all the time..
