Default Weapon selection

Hey all, I've got a choice to make on what weapons to use. I have

My epic (fabled)
Marrow's Song
Segment Serrator
The Witchdoctor Doomblade

I think the obvious choice for main hand is the epic. But which do I use in my offhand?

No shit! And as soon as anyone in your group moves out of range of your buffs, the bonus is GONE! Someone dies? BONUS GONE! It checks for the bonus everytime the buff is applied. If you don't have Marrow's Song equiped when your group member comes back into range, then they get the buff WITHOUT the bonuses from Marrow's Song. So sure, if you want to be continually re-casting the buff and swapping weapons go for it! Me? I'd just wear Marrow's Song and be done with the deal. If I was soloing though, sure, I'd equip-cast-remove.

Rule #1 = Don't fucking die, raiders get this down and it's a non-issue, As my RL likes to say.. I don't want to hear it.. you got dolls, you got potions, you got 8 fucking healers in the raid, you got vent you got tells, you have everything available to you to keep your ass alive.. shut the fuck up.. go tell that shit to somebody who isn't having to DPS you stupid ass heals off the mob again.. LOL sorry it tickles me to hear this sometimes. and yes I die sometimes to..

Rule #2 - don't run outa range of your bard, raiders figure this out and it's a non-issue. Any raider out of the range of thier bard during a fight is doing some stupid shit like clicking anyway so who cares if they lose the buff


Just my 2 cents on using Marrow's to DPs with...

I thought they changed that in an update not long ago. I don't really play anymore, so can't test!

If you don't time auto-attacks which as a Troub will generally hurt your dps, I fail to see why matching delays should be beneficial.
