Cool factor : Having the epic for this alone is great. The quest is pretty fun too.
2h bash: Since no big races can be paladins this is your only way to have 2h bash. In PoH and some places like Seb gaters are an issue. It’s the quickest swap out you can do and coupled with a lvl 30 stun gives a high chance of shutting down blue cons.
Stats: it has pretty great stats for its level of difficulty to get
-100 check stun: like with the 2h bash, the proc will almost always land and can stun gaters and CH blue cons. I use it a lot in PoH when that’s my main goal. Even over a rocksmasher or Frostwrath & shield.
