I was thoroughly disgusted with my Tranquil Staff compared to Epic/SoS
Uhg. That's kind of the conclusion I'm coming to. I guess I will just bag the IFS unless I'm in a group and hasted up and have heals but will have to stick with DW for soloing. I guess that also means I need to start saving up again for an SoS. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Ironically, the Quivering Staff seems to do pretty well. It's fast enough to keep the dmg flowing even with any misses. I guess that means the SoS would do really well for me considering the SoS has similar dmg/dly as a 1h weapon.
