Which weapon combo?

Velth · 12-04-2006, 11:20 PM

In all of our raids our guild has never seen the Grinning Dirk of Horror drop and the Dirk of Negativity only dropped once; and went to a guildie that didn't have a fabled weapon (guild policy being that if you have 2 fabled weapons you can't bid against someone who doesn't).

Which of the four weapons would you combo?

Qeynos Cutlas, The Wurmslayer, Adamantine Dragonfang, Talonsreach

Thanks.

Wurmslayer for main hand, Talonsreach for off hand. Wurmslayer has been my main weapon (since I've yet to see a GDoH drop) through all T7 and considering the delay / spread between min - max dmg I consider it second only to GDoH.

agreed

dragonfang and cutlass are pretty pants

wurmslayer mainhand talonsreach secondhand

unless you have spiked barbs on your shoulderpiece, then swap them round as that procs with every melee attack on primary (and crits 52% of the time) as i "think" that would overall more damage

Ideally you want GDoH and one of the two new EoF dual weilds (axe and rapier) or DoN (which got a slight nerfing but is still v good) using wurmslayer vs draconic mobs

the dmg spread on wurmslayer is a very average 3:1 but then so are the ratios on all 4 of these weapons. i'd also say Wurmy / TR. The wurmslayer proc is really nice in the KoS zones.

GDoH doesnt seem to want to drop for us no matter how many times we clear LoA and I dont have the patience for crafting so Wurmy is out. Out of the available KoS DW's (We havent figured out EoF raids yet) what is the next best thing to these two that one can hope for? I'm currently running Ghetto Grizfazzle and Adamantine Dragonfang. Dragonfang is nice for the stats but I'm a little disappointed in the DR and Griz is , well just Griz. Looking for a nice DR and a trifecta of stats (str, sta,agi), proc optional.

Count me in as yet another assassin that has never had a GDOH drop for the guild. Highly frustrating to even go to that zone...I am using the Dirk of Negativity in my mainhand and Vampiric Axe of Balance in my off hand.

Dirk of Negativity with a viral adornment in primary and Absolution w/ +12 pierce in secondary.

I switch Oblivion's Edge into primary to use that opening KOS AA slash attack then put dirk back in.

Lotusd · 12-05-2006, 11:52 PM

It seems to me that the Vampire Axe of Balance in one hand and DoN or GDoH woudl be the best overall combo in Game..Am I off on this??

Until we see more EoF DW drops, I would say GDOH in primary and AoVB (go the acronyms!) in the offhand for the best combo currently.
