User blog comment:Weew1213/Arno Dorian vs Shay Cormac "AC Unity vs AC Rogue"/@comment-3189283-20150707151630

Let's see shall we;

Hidden Blades 

These are both the same weapon but Shay has two whereas Arno only has the one so he gets the edge.

Edge: Shay Cormac

Iconic Weapon 

I would imagine that the Rifle has the longer range and it's also packing more options. It can be used as a straight up killing tool or as a distraction and is the more practical weapon. The Phantom Blade is good for stealth but I don't think it will be as effective in a straight up fight whereas the Rifle is good for stealth or head on combat.

Edge: Shay Cormac 

Melee

There's enough info on the Cutlass or Sword to make a direct comparison but it doesn't really matter anyhow, Shay still wins out irregardless. The Dagger gives a whole new dimension to Shay's swordsman as it allows him to disarm Arno as well as giving him an extra attacking option, giving Arno a harder time defending against his attacks. It improves both his offence and his defence and that's what gives Shay the edge.

Edge: Shay Cormack 

Pistols 

This is basically the same as the Hidden Blade edge, both weapons are the same but Shay has two as opposed to one
