I have killed Chel'drak once a week from July to now, and have seen 2 Chel'drak shards drop...lol Once in Vagabonds, and now once in Vendetta (but I was on a business trip..) - Since Sawtooth is never up, and Wuoshi doesn't ever feel like dropping the fucking Axe - I figure a Shard would have been easier to get.

Meh - the loot gods just fucking hate me.

and now it hangs on my dirges belt. i'm one happy bard.

The ballad blade is so obviously a dirge item. The dirge in the MT group would use it, giving that little bit of extra healing. If you meant for soloing, I really don't think the choice of weapon is hugely important as most of your damage will come from CAs, and by the time you have cycled your CAs, the mob should be dead. Although if you are trying heroic named, I guess the heal would be nice, along with vitality breach. As for adornment, its situational (as always), so if you mainly group or solo, I would either go for +5 piercing skill or for a pure damage proc.

The claymore rapier (sadly nerfed) used to be good, but not so well with the wisdom aa line, as it has a low delay. Ive no idea why it works this way, its just what Ive been told.

Damn... Weve seen it twice in the past 2-3 months. Luckily i got one of em.

This is my loot luck:

Rapier of Darkness has dropped once, and a bard had more dkp then me.

Bisected Saber - nope
Vamparic Axe of Battle - nope
Recipe for Thirneg Thorn - nope
Scimatar of Wounding - nope
Sarik's Fang - nope
Waning moon cutter - nope
Dirk of Nightfall - nope
Grinning Dirk of Horror - nope

That also includes CDS dropping once, no CCM, and no AoNO - the loot gods fucking hate me.

Thinking Vilucidae's sword is about equal of the ones listed in the 1handed section, no?

It has around the same damage ratio as Folded Scale Blade just with a higher delay (3 sec iirc)

[Apollodon]

should we start looking at gear differently with upcoming changes?

break it up into 3 parts

DPS - current list
DEAGRO - crown, cruor bp, others i cant think of atm
STAY ALIVE - resist tanking chain armor lol

lmao

[Johnathon]

Yeah, Deagro is going to be king to keeping our dps in respectable numbers =(

DAMIT!
