get cedar weapons, with cedar it's "usually" one of the cheapest rares and you can make 2 types of weapons you can make 2h blunts and pierce either the 2h greatstaff or bo staff and a cedar pike for pierce oh yea they are both ugly as heck and pretty disgusting to look at, but why waste an ebon? when cedar's are so cheap, count as legendary and can hit anything. also if you go duel wield get fightingbatons/quarterstaffs/cudgels, thats listed from fastest to slowest too if you were interested. cedar's cheap and ugly if you go 1h, you can have a wand, i have no idea why!, but you should get a 1h club, it's REALLY ugly , it looks like a newbie refugee island club, but it packs a punch. cedar's cheap, with cedar you can have all your blunt raid requirements, have pierce requirements (really when are you gonna get 1h pierce, and almost everyone's got a sbd...) so save that ebon for slashing weapons or armor. i never use a shield unless epic tanking, but don't forget the really cheap tower shield if you don't have time to do SBS and the nice stats on cedar bows too. again cedar is cheap use that to your advantage, usally it's nice and cheap heh. for my 2h setup i'm good with a rgf,ebon made axe and the really ugly cedar pike (it looks like a stupid fishing pole) if you replace the rgf with a cedar bostaff or greatstaff you have a lot of offtanking 2h weapons.
