Duel Weild Adornments

Planetside · 05-07-2007, 03:26 PM

What adornments would you put on a Twin Calamity and a Fist of Bashing? Looking for stuff to increase my dps.

I use the mana leach adornment. If you are oom you have no dps. It really helps on long fights especially if you do not have a power regen (rare but it happens)

The +12 damage adornments are the most consistent and best to use, IMO.

I replied about this in your other thread. As Banzai stated above, the +12 weaponsmith ones are best in general, but there are certain situations where the treasured proc ones will be comparable or better for less price.

As best as I can tell, the +12 dmg adornments are also scaled to weapon delay. Because of that, they really do not add the best dps. The legendary Vampiric handle will actually do the most overall damage. The adornment claims that it is for one handers, but it will work on DW weapons as well. As for the treasured ones, the poison DOT will do the most damage, with the flame DOT second. If you decide to use the DOTs, don't use two of the same, as the procs will over-write each other, resulting in less total damage.

Unfortunately, even the best adornments add only 10-15 DPS, so you are not going to make or break your parse with them.

The best adornment for raid is either power drain or +skill adornment. +skill adornment helps you to hit mob more often and it is best adornment for dps in raid.

Ive been using the +5 pierce for my off hand weapon but I haven't really liked it. I didn't even notice a 10 dps increase. It sure helps off tanking though.

I have no idea why you didn't get dps boost. My hit ratio was up about 3% with +5 pierce on my TWB in raid.

I use the +12 dmg adornments on both my dual-wielders... but only because I'm a weaponsmith and I could make them myself, heehee. SMILEY

im currently using 2 of the treasured fire adorns because i didnt know you could use the vampiric handle on DWs. will probably be switching over soon though. i want them for the added HP return tho as well, so even if it was a minor drop in DPS i wouldnt mind because i would live longer

I usually run in a group with a dirge giving accuracy and master offensive stance. I miss a lot more than I would like but +5 wasn't a big difference. When in offensive but like I said it did help my tanking a good deal.

This is most likely a reduntant question, but I thought that only your main hand adornment would proc. Not both.

Thanks.

No, off hand weapon will proc, no matter it's from adornment or off hand weapon itself.

Offhand procs only with auto-attack... don't expect much proc if you are mainly CA user where auto-attack does not come in much handy unless long fights.
