Trolls like Troxx spam the thread when people disagree with them. Same as all the other threads like this.

He keeps forgetting how math works. Multiple posters respond to me, so I have more posts. You just add up the posts from the top posters who are responding to me and it evens out. You have multiple posters attacking me in every thread, and they still typically lose.

Fist/SoS these days is really bad. Most well geared rangers out parse them. There are DW combos that out perform droppable Kunark 2h’s but you won’t find them outside raids. The triple attack and then scaling damage bonus patch did crazy things.

This is true on low ac/group targets. I feel that epic fist / sos would outperform a lot of 2handers on big AC raid bosses. The other night i was plinking Vyemm for like 40 dmg per hit with my priceless 2hander and decided to try out Mainhand epic fist with priceless in offhand. Didn't parse it ofc but would like to eventually.

Yea I’m a walking hypocrisy. I still think most two-handers shine these days but if people are actively parsing and trying to push the envelope so be it. My annoyance is people just going with dogma over a span of a few years of patches or using an excel spreadsheet to determine what’s best.

Get your good buffs. Parse. Compare fights. Evolve.

I’ve seen people top parses with an IFS and the “punch trick” and suck with the best gear. Just get in there and get it done [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Theres few mobs with enough ac to justify 1h, but 2h wins on most mobs. like aary for instance 2h will parse higher, KT itll parse lower. Pretty known for most what has ac at this point.

if you aren't gonna raid, then 2h all the way - forget about dual wield

1-29 = Wu's Quivering Staff
30+ = Imbued Fighter's Staff (Until you can afford Tstaff)

Level up your hand to hand and 1hb whenever you can, buy something cheap like a Jade mace.

Use Tstaff till you raid and get an upgrade. Also it is nice to have a SoS on hand for that buff when soloing. Don't bother spending time getting a Blam stick, shit's terrible
