NE1 w/Plague Sword Master1?

[VeinTro]

<DIV>I just wanted to hear if the upgrade to this spell was worth getting.  I will probably buy the Rudy if it is worth it.</DIV>

[far]

<DIV>masters in my opinion are always with getting, and its really a question of availibility, adept IIIs on the other hand are another matter. Priority for 40+ adept IIIs for me was (i didnt get any adepts till i was already level 50 and in a raiding guild, now im quasi retired)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>1. Despoiling Mist (sticks better)</DIV> <DIV>2. Cursed Sacrament (40 pet) (best way to increase yer dps versus NON aeing mobs)</DIV> <DIV>3. Dreadful Wrath  great spell</DIV> <DIV>4. Malevolent Circle (might be #1 depends on if you are tanking)</DIV> <DIV>5. Pariahs Mark (10 second recast makes it sadly the best tap ya got)</DIV> <DIV>6. Sickening Anger (20 sec recast makes it a dubious choice but i still group alot)</DIV> <DIV>7. Insidious Whisper (unless you got zarns plague)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Things not to upgrade IMO</DIV> <DIV>1. Unholy Str the upgrade from adept 1 to 3 is 3 pts to str sta and agil... not really worth it in my book but if you are trying to scrape out every little bit of stat why not (my most disappointing adept 3)</DIV> <DIV>2. Soul Rend/destructive slam (does not hit epic targets, but as many nice sks have mentioned spiked boot and shield charge do)</DIV> <DIV>3. Calculated Evasion/Gift of Armorment (this might just be my old guild but sks never made ma groups and since it only affects group members this spell has been like a wasted ruby for me (up till now))</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Im not going to touch the unholy blessing issue, nor the dot issue, both have been major dissapointments to me.</DIV> <DIV>Just this guys opinion, so it really depends where ya are at. Definately however get adept 3 doom judgement, insatiable hunger, and baleful smite.</DIV>

I have Plague Sword Master 1. Hits in the upper 400's. The damage is slightly lower than DW. Power cost is more but hey, with the right gear, power cost isn't an issue to ya.
