Question about duel wielding shadow knight

[Cow Slayer]

<DIV>ello ello i was just talking to one of my zerker friends and i started to think y the only 2 warrior classes that cant duel wield are sks and pally i know they are more oriented around magic and not the normal warrior trust me i have a 68 sk but dueling wielding would kinda help there dps if they could do just alittle more wit 2 weaps and spells.i mean i know sks are supposed to be dark knights of disease and junk but holding 2 axes isnt 2 odd if every other warrior class can do so. just kinda make me feel like im being left out on some sick duel wield action.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>i was just wondering </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>i was also wondeing if the sk helm was ever gonna be changed to something diff from the necro helm i was thinking something like something the dark knight would wear like a regular dark plate help with giant gashes in it so u could see the chars face alittle or something more sinister then just a skull wit horns idk.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>go ahead and comment as much as u want.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Onia sk 68 Knights of the shattering </DIV> <DIV>butcherblock</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

We are a class designed for a two handed weapon not dual weild weapons. We do not need two weapons to do as much damage as the other 3 fighter classes who can. And yes, two weapons does not really fit the idea of a "knight" or "crusader". Insane two-weapon weilding freaks are called Berzerkers.The SK helm won't be changed, but the Necro helm will eventually be changed so it is something other than our helm. They copied our graphic, not the other way around.<div></div>

<P>that explains the helm issue </P> <P>but it would still be kewl to duel wield something i knew zerkers were duelwield freaks thats y i was wondering y we couldnt even though knights can. </P> <P> </P> <P>i still think it would be pretty kewl if they did something for sks and pallys to duel wield or makes us more intresting them warriors with magic</P>

You will see alot more Zerkers duel wielding soon.  Double attack apears to be getting nerfed bigtime soon.  Every zerker does buckler and 1 hander right now.  If you look at a zone parse you see how many more attacks they get than you did.  We use 2 handers or 1 hander and symbol or shield.  That is the way of things.  There was a bug that allowed us to duel wield for a few days there.  It was fun but 1 hander and symbol still parsed better for us.

Hah ... </classbalance><whine> BUT WE HAVE TWO ARMS!!!! WHY CAN'T WE DUAL WIELD??? BBBWWAAHHHHHHH!!! </whine>sounds like you should have rolled a zerker ... or maybe a pally/bard dual class complete with all the singing, prancing, whining fun that goes along with it.  <div></div>

I would think we would get less DPS using dual wields.. I mean with a 2hander we can get autoattacks in the middle of casting we would always interrupt autoattacks if we used dual wields

[Baaloc]

Since the brunt of our damage is spell/CA based, having dual wield would only lessen our DPS. We would be missing out on more auto attack damage since a lot of our time is spent casting. So you have to ask yourself: Would I rather hit once with a dual wield weapon or a two hander, in between casting?

<DIV>Technically SKs and Paladins aren't part of the "Warrior" class.  That's Berserkers and Guardians. ;P</DIV>

[Vexorkane]

<DIV>Hm.. since when does Crusader = Warrior? Did I miss something?</DIV>

[Norrsken]

<P>The thing I am irked about is nto us not beinga ble to dual wield. </P> <P>ITs that the crusaders, the mage tanks, are the ONLY tank that cant use wands. [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] is up with that?<BR>[Removed for Content] would a zerker know anything about magic?</P>

To be blunt, dual wielding doesnt suit our class.When I think of a dreadful shadowknight. Im thinking of a armor soiling inducing knight of utter malice and hate carving a swath through his enenmies with a huge menacing 2handed weapon....leave the dual wield to the warrior classes....<div></div>

But [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] is with all the pink graphics for Shadow Knights?  I mean why would anyone think a Knight of Death and destruction would want a Pink flame around his right hand and Pink armor to match it?  I know I am beating a dead horse here but [Removed for Content]?  Maybe our summon squire spell should summon Richard Freaking Simmons...Aex</div>

Haha, I think one of the art team finds this funny, its been like this way back ever since EQ1. Planes of power armor was also pink. Or maybe they are color blind and they are meaning to make it blood red, but it's really pink<div></div>

I've recently joined the ranks of the most severe clowns and can say with all honesty that this is the worst game for colors I have ever played period.  What kind of f'ing acid are you tripping on when you think a set of brown, silver, yellow, black, red, blue, lime green, and purple armor looks good? I mean what thought process drives this? And for that matter who the hell is working in QA looking at that garbage before it gets sent out?  I mean my pink glowing hand is the least of my worries when I walk around looking like that.  It's an issue that seriously needs addressing because in some way shape or form, I should have the ability to at least match the rest of my armor with ONE of the pieces I am wearing at the very least.  EQ1 Armors were not this bad, at least for the most part they were darker non-flourescent f'ing colors.  Sorry to rant on but someone should go inside their toolset, click on the color shade, and at the very [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] least make it darker just for one day to see just how many people show up at the message boards and cry because they lost their tye-dye hippie look.
