The Killij and Cutlass are both Warrior/Scout only and thus the changes to dual wield weapons will not change a thing.

as said previously, the other rewards we cannot use, i too wish the mage symbol was an option. alas the shield is the only real sword as the claymore itself is not as good as the dozens of weapons that will drop along the way while working on the raids

The Claymore has one of the best procs I've seen on a weapon and it more than makes up for the Claymore's damage spread and delay which seem recycled from Labs 2H's.

<p>Its a while since i had to choice. I already got it upgradednow. But as a raider i took the shield which was no brainer at this time.</p><p>But you should choose by youre playstyle.</p><p> If you more Soloing and grinding Lower level Stuff or are spected for damage, and if you are usual not the one who is tanking, the Claymore is maybe the better choice for you. Some had even taken it for the look (if you like the Final Fantasy look, not my taste.)</p><p>The greater Update for a raider is maybe the Q Guard. There are some shields out there that are better for a crusader, but in the moment that are not too many. The Procs (after they where finaly fixed or at least shown up on log now) on the Q Guard are Solid. The Stone Skin effekt is nice, and also the spell reflect has a nice duration and 'waits' for incommings spells. ( Once again the look is a diffrent story, in the time i was wearing it i always fear some kind of space marine would show up and wants it back <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> )</p><p>If you take the Shield dont forget to get a nice Adorment to it wich fits your demands. (T6 1% Block > T7 Miti, or alternative Spikes for aggro while stunned)</p><p>Last point is. It is a lot easyer to get a nice 2 H then a nice shield. Cause there are tons of 2 H no one wants.</p>

<p>even after the Cutlass will patched to "one handed" on LU 37 there are many other one handers that are a lot better even in KoS</p><p>i would doubt if the upgarde dual-wields by 33% then it will have about  31-83 Damage still 1,6 Delay DR about 72</p><p>not really good...</p><p>Shadowaxe for example easy to get and even tradeable  to stay in KoS.</p><p>http://eq2.xanadu-community.com/eq2_loot.php?BrowseNPC=1&exp_id=6&pack_id=12&zone_id=65&target_id=199</p>
