Complementary weapons in dual wield

Post by Argon of Peristalsis »

Dual wield is so much fun. The challenge is matching weapons for best effect.

I wish there were better weapons available to complement the ones available. But maybe that's another thread for the development forum.

But given the available weapons, what's best to go with: Flagstone's Pride, RoL, Chaosreaper, Axe Of Fear, Shadowfang, etc?

It all depends on what you want to get out of it and what you are geared for.

When in doubt, dual BSS. :P

IMO Balanced steel sword or Brutal club are really intresting weapons too... :twisted:

Balanced steel sword: (Attack Cost: 4 AP, AC: +32%, AD: +3-7)

Brutal club (Attack Cost: 7 AP, AC: +20%, AD: +2-21, CHS: 5, CM: 3.0)

Good combination!

:oops:
I mean using 2*Balanced steel sword or 2*Brutal club = good result if you have maxed out two weapon fighting skills....

Here are some combinations that work for me:

Flagstone's pride <=> BSS (but I wish there was a decent high-critical 4 AP sword in the game)

Chaosreaper <=> BSS (and they pair up well).

RoL<=> That Defender thingie you buy at the Crossroads. The AP matches, and the AC is really good.

I'd like to see a 5 AP sword with +25 AC and 6-18 damage, plus something extra like an actor condition. A decent sword on its own, but matched with the RoL, a deadly combo. It should sell for an absurd amount, to give players something to spend the imp grind treasure on. Like 10,000-20,000 gold.
