I have a Wurmslayer on my 30 ogre SK, should I stick with it or get an Ebon mace? I have SCHW so the delay isn't too bad.

I always wished I had gone ebon mace, went with noc blade instead.

Pretty hard to beat ebon mace for its cost effectiveness. Personally, I shy away from class restricted weapons because I'm a cheap bastard and would prefer weapons I can use on a bunch of different toons. So I'd look into something like an exquisite vel brawlstick, even if it costs twice as much.

I don't know what the relative costs are nowadays. Ebon Mace is better. Wurmslayer will give acceptable service if it's what you have and you aren't inclined/can't afford better.

Should check out the item I recommended if you plan to drop that much plat on something. it will outdamage that even if they ever introduce the damage bonus for slow weapons. And you can get for a lot cheaper and use it twink almost any other character pretty much.

/who all velk
Do this everyday until you find a group doing lower dogs
Go loot a sword of pain which one or two always rot in any good lower dog session. You can die up against the wall left of entrance and /corpsed into camp.

If you feeling generous tip the group but most happy to not see it spoil.

Ebon mace is hard to beat.

Sk and pali can't dual wield, as such most knight only 1hander get ratio other class can only dream of, so sorry for your budget, but get a knight only 1hander... Noct blade, ebon mace, shard of night, the falshion from hate, the sword of pain... Any of these would do, and forget the wurm slayer

Thanks guys, I’ll just end up buying an Ebon Mace.

I had an Ebon Mace and a Massive Velium Axe for my ogre sk (lvl 32) and ended up selling the Ebon for this same reason. Plus it wasn't winning any fashion contests.

If I was a small SK w/o slam it would be way more tempting to keep and just plunk away. Maybe things will change in the 50's when I'm scrambling for that extra bit of AC/hps.
