Hello all. I've seen alot of very nice 1-hander weapons from the EoF expansion. Unfortunately, unless I luck out and get some kinda pickup raid, it will be some time before my guild is able to raid the content that drops said weapons. However, we do raid KoS content very regularly. What are, lets say, the top 3 KoS 1-handers for a brigand? Thanks in advance for the input.

Scoundril

Top 5 in order:
Cheldraks Shard- Cheldrak in Antechamber of Fate
Ancient Vorpol Blade- Vyemm in HoS
Ancient Sarnak War Cutlass- Vyemm in HoS
Shadow Axe- A Shadowy Presence" in HoS
Frostwrath- Corsolander in Labs

Serrated sword of retribition from Cheldrak is nice as well.

Lizerd Keng

shadow axe, axe of the bloodbeast, sarnak war cutlass, or better yet - vorpal blade, all from HoS are good. Vilucidae's Sword from Lyceum is nice too.
I'm not a brigand so I'm sure others will narrow this down, but these are all decent one handers that you can use. Most of the 1 handers that you can use are about the same (in damage output) from KoS era. I wouldn't concentrate on any one of them persoanlly, just get any of them and it will work good until you get into EoF and beyond.


Edit: vyemm is not found in HoS hehe, Vyemm=Laboratory of Lord Vyemm and HoS=Venekor.

Kicks

with the upcoming change of dualwields get the grinning dirk of horror, if you have the chance. Will be a very nice 1h weapon once the change is in.

ibeo

thats most of them right there (thou shard is fallen dynasty, and frostwrath blows)

MeridianR

Other then the one's listed:

Axe of the bloodbeast I guess is ok...

Vilucide, and Silver Sword of Rage are decent.

The 1h Claymore is ok, but that is probably all of them.

I dont think 4s delay weapons are going to be viable dw solution come lu 38 since their new delays will all be 5.33s. I just think the machete or shard will pwn faces.

Testing will tell but I think anything 4s or greater will not be that great as a dw. But if things stay like they are on test (both weapons main and off will be 1.33*delay) I doubt it. We'll see like I said.

In terms for current best 1hers go to the best gear stick thread they are in order,

Yeah not sure what is going to go on with the changes, but weapons such as Soulfire Sabre and GDoH are both going to be 5.33 delays, which makes them pretty shitty come the changes.

I just really don't understand how you can take probably the best dw combo and just totally fuck it come LU38.

Gesari

Yeah, it makes you wonder if the changes are even worth making. Sure it would be sick to be able to DW a combo like CCM/CDS or something, as both have respectable delays even with the hit they'd take, but fucking over the current state of things might not be worth it, when there's really nothing wrong with the way things are now anyway.
