Cobalt weapons

I am a weaponsmith and it seems the cobalt unimbued weapons have better stats as far as agi and stuff go but when they are imbued drop considerably (in the neighborhood of 7 points a stat each) and the only improvement is the added proc. Do you think it would be better to market unimbued dual wields instead of the imbued etc.... or is it DPS DPS DPS?

I think we've come to the comclusion, we as in all my split personalities cause I sure dont speak for the community: that having the off hand proc isnt very useful. And thus would have that one unimbued to add the str, and have the main hand hold the weap with the proc.

I recently had a pristine cobalt crescent axe made, non imbued so i could keep the extra str and agi. I pretend to tank so rarely the lack of hp is negligable for me with that trade off for 9 or is it 7 Sta. However I still do hold a fabled in my off hand that has no proc. Again a however, I dont melee very much at all, and I mean so rarely I had my axe for 2 days before I even saw it draw blood, and since the proc only goes when I would melee, it wouldnt make much sense for me to make that trade for the loss of str.

IMO, for you, as a weaponsmith, if I were a weaponsmith (which im not) every One handed and Two handed weapon you make, imbue it. But i would say for dual wield weaps, for every one you imbue, make one non imbued.

Thats just my opinion of course. Ive seen many a person carrying 2 imbued t6 weap so.../shrug, what do i know lol. Maybe im wrong

Well the weapons still proc on the offhand, so you should still do more dmg.
