Best NON raid end game 1h's

[Deaudlus]

I was recently browsing the broker for gear that I would grow into (I'm currently lvl 45) and Saw a blade of the bixies for 1p.  Seemed like a pretty decent deal so I picked it up.  I can use it at 58.  After that, What are some of the end gaIme 1h weapons that I shuld be looking to get?  I doubt I will be getting anything UBER rare.  My guild is small and we raid in conjuction with another guild maybe once a week.  I also dont think the raiding they are doing is the uber high end  stuff.  Since I'n only 45 I cant really speak to end game raiding but from what I have seen the do stuff like "The labs".  Im not sure how that falls in terms of raiding progression but thats the type of content I can expect to be doing.  Knowing that, What end game weapons should I be setting my sights on that I will actully have a chance of getting?  I would love to have "the best" but I doubt I will ever get it so I prefer to set my sights on something a bit more attainable.Thanks all!<div></div>

<P>If you can't raid I don't suggest wisdom line, there is a huge lack of good 1h weapons you don't need to raid for. If you're set on the line, the best one I know of drops from the rare droag in Vaults of El'Arad, no idea on the name.</P> <P>But if you can raid lower stuff (labs, HoS ect), I would suggest getting Shadowaxe from a shadowy presance in HoS or Frostwrath from the Corsolander.</P><p>Message Edited by The-Fourm-Pirate on <span class=date_text>01-11-2007</span> <span class=time_text>07:50 AM</span>

Hmm, I kind of wonder If I'm gimping myself then.  I'll have to download a parser and try it with the wis line and then dual wield.<div></div>

You should try and buy an Ancient velium weapon. They are a trash drop from deathtoll but are much better than any non-raid one hander you'll find. They are often up on the broker for 7-15p.

<P>Im using the wisAA line and I wield an Ancient Velium Shortsword...(cause I haven't been lucky enough yet to "find" a fabled).  I tried the Bixie Blade and was disappointed.  Since then I picked up a AVS and my DPS is <U>very respectible</U> given this combo....but, of course, would be higher with a fabled one-hander.  In my humble opinion, I would stick with the wisAA line.....get a AVS for the short term......and in the longer term....hope for the lucky drop of a fabled sword during a raid.  Good Luck.</P> <P> </P> <P>Pamonyet</P> <P>Lvl70 Swash</P> <P>Cool Cats Guild</P> <P>The Bazaar Server</P>

Empowered Ghoulbane has a DR of 66. I'm not sure what the ratio of Ancient Velium Shortsword so I'm not sure how it compares. <div></div>

<div></div>Ancient Velium weapons show a DR of 68 now, Empowered Ghoulbane has a higher damage spread then Ancient Velium weapons so it hits harder just a .3 longer delay. I prefer the Empowered ghoulbane because of that, with haste the higher delay isnt that big of a deal.<div></div><p>Message Edited by Delowen on <span class=date_text>01-12-2007</span> <span class=time_text>08:20 PM</span>

<DIV>The ancient velium weapons are nice for soloing or when you don't have a haste buff, but if you are in a group and have 100% haste most of the time you'll get more benefit from the higher delay weapon. The Empowered Ghoul Bane is very nice for undead mobs especially with constrain as a 2000 debuff for divine damage. You'll do an extra 50 divine damage every hit with the mob debuffed. (meaning that it will do 50 divine damage, not 50 extra in addition to the regular divine damage)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Callus</DIV><p>Message Edited by Bunion on <span class=date_text>01-14-2007</span> <span class=time_text>11:49 PM</span>
