Default Sabre or Gladius

I was wondering who all went with what weapon for S.O.D? Myself I took the gladius for the simple fact that with it equipped with no haste gear it is a 4.0 delay weapon for my main hand where as the saber would have been 5.2 dw. Like some have said if you can cap haste the 4.0 delay weapons will rock out but I am thinking for the average raid force (compared to uber guild's) the 3.0 delay on the gladius will be the better route. Any input?

I think you're on crack. You want longer delays, generally speaking.

Ok maybe I wasn't quite clear. What I am saying is, at the moment the gladius is a 4.0 delay weapon with no haste equipped. That is good right? With the saber equipped with no haste it jumps to 5.2 delay. So my reasoning is this, all the uber 4.0 delay weapon's will be great if you can cap haste or come dam close yes? My thought was that the gladius being a 4.0 delay with no haste is the better choice for a dw toon that can't come close to the haste cap. Sorry if I make no sense to you all, was just trying to figure out what to get because I wouldn't want to take the wrong one.

It's a slasher so it already loses major points at least with me, I would just go with the Saber.

This is a quote from your post #43 I think in dw changes.

Technically nothing has changed so nothing needs nerfing, maybe make the 4sec weapons 3sec and have them as before. Theres just something wrong with procs that i cant put my finger on and needs fixing, also the new raid buffs that everyones getting and naturally we probably benefit the most.

The gladius isn't a true 4 sec delay, it's not a piercer, and it gives +5 block chance ( WTF?)

The sabre is a true 4 sec delay, is a piercer, and gives +5 dps ( hooray!)

Yea I'd say your logic is pretty fucked up.

omg put on your saber's and remove all self haste and do a /weapon. That will give you the "TRUE" delay it is 5.2, the gladius is 4.0 if you don't belive me try it lol. ALL these weapons GDOH, BS, SS are all 5.2 delay weapon's with no haste now. That im sorry is just a bit to slow, with haste in a raid I wanna get to 2.0-2.5 delay. That's just me.
