On the flip side, slow weapons mean less damageshield/riposte damage and easier to cast spells between swings without sacrificing melee dps.

Yeah, but at lower levels ds and riposte aren't much. If the mob is fleeing and he misses enough for it to regen, I think the faster weapon would be better for now.

He should be casting more though, so technically this is irrelevant mostly. I'm mainly talking about lower level characters where you miss a lot more and it really hurts when you have a slow weapon (assuming non-twinks).

Question answered. Guess ill just have to keep toughing it out til I can afford less crappy gear. Forgot how expensive spells are, even just buying the ones you NEED. Thanks for the responses.
