Default Offhand Weapon Advice

Right now i have segmented serrator in my off hand. My guild does Kor sha regularly but we are still in T2, so I'm trying to decide how aggressively I should go after throatripper next time it drops. I compared the 2 last night, and other than the proc, I didn't see much difference in them. Is the throatripper a major upgrade from segmented? If not, I'll probably pass on it because we have scouts using anaphalaxis and betrayal's song still.

For that matter, other than the epics, how would you rank the best weapons in the game for us?

Not a major upgrade at all, but still an upgrade.

As for weapons at the moment, it would go something like this:

(Epic)
Exigent
The Witchdoctor Doomblade
Worm Tooth Blade
Throatripper
Segmented Serrator
Betrayal's Song
Incandescent Blade
Claw of Khalen
Ekron's Blade

Nice. Never seen most of those. I assume Extigent is avatar loot, how about the rest of it? Also, isn't there a claw of milex or something like that? I thought it was better than throatripper.

Weapons that drop off mobs that are currently unkilled aren't on his list. The Talon of Milyx(or whatever it is) drops off of Tangrin, and he is currently unkilled.

Wtf, I swear someone linked the Talon of Milyex with a +piercing adorn on it last week in ww channel claiming to have it. However, a check on eqplayers confirmed that you're right, it hasn't been disco'd, so I guess that what was linked was just BS.

To answer the question: Yeah the Talon is miles above Throatripper and would probably be #2 only to our Mythical.

I had my rankings the same as Vaanir and then started rethinking throatripper and WDDB. Since the epic is main hand only, does that change the rankings?

Basically what was making me rethink the order was that since it would be an offhand weapon it wouldn't be getting the added chances to proc from CA's like your main hand does (meaning your MH weapon procs from its own rate and off ca's, while the OH weap only procs based on your MH Autoattack). With that in mind, i figured that passive bonuses like the +3 crit of Throatripper may be better off then just pure damage which is the Doomblades strength.

Am I over thinking this now?

Exigent is more a ranger weapon imho (blasphemy?? maybe)

And there is no better weapon for MH than mythical epic... much easier to get than any other of the top.. so you got to see all as offhand... witch blades proc is sick dps... personally i try to stick to all pierce cause damn my +slash sucks... and if you thought missing with pierce was bad against oranges...just try with something your not close to cap (no i don't get a dirge)

BTW pokie i think your offhand procs is based on your OH swings only.. thats why large dot procs rock in offhand

My personal order would be

Talon
Exigent
Witchblade
Wormtooth (same ratio .. no dmg proc but power is good.. probably with Phantom piths you can forget about power poison unless huge powerdrain ect)
Throatripper
