Default Good 1H choice for STR line?

Anyone ever try using a decent 4.0 sec delay weapon with a high damage output when we can go in and melee? Does the added damage offset having what would be otherwise a bad mage weapon? This is of course assuming you are spec'ed down the STR line. I've seen a few decent 2H staves from damage output but the STR line only affects 1H.

I've seen weapons from Carotidcutter to some stuff that has dropped in T1 and T2 that we could use, but scouts snag those like no tomorrow. And I'd feel really bad outbidding a scout on an obvious scout weapon just because I can equip it.

I'd love just to try one out once - anyone know of an easy-to-get one (such as faction rewards etc) that would be worthwhile?

I'd obviously swap out to my WoCP when I can't melee.

I have the carotidcutter and its sweet. I was messing around with the training wall in KJ earlier and in 51 seconds my pierce was 16311 damage with 319.82 ext dps. I had IA and Adept3 rapidity. I'll try it again later. PvP prevented further testing.

Thats a great one you can get in a group there are better in raids but you might have to hurt some ones feelings.

With the lack of t8 weapons thanks to epic weapons, your best bet is the corrotidcutter.

it's parsing pretty well on non aoe mobs
