Upgrade for Thex Mallet

Rayah · 07-23-2009, 02:18 PM

I am in a guild who has progressed up to Kultak, Xebnok, and Switchmaster. Are there any dps upgrades to the Thex Mallet that anyone has found.

In my opinion at least and it's what i use on my warden, the dogwood staff from nexona give you best combo of high dps and reasonable delay to proc glacial assault and melee heals.

My understanding of it is that The Dogwood Staff is more or less the same as the Thex Mallet and less of an upgrade to it. Any thoughts?

I use the heavy hammer of hard knocks from woe, hits harder than anything else I've found.

But it has a 8 sec delay on it. Would need a dirge Battle Cry on you to make that even worth considering and I don't know too many dirges willing to put BC on a warden.

6 sec or 5 sec delay = sweet spot for warden dps

The Heavy Hammer is beast if you can whore fuckton of accuracy. You would need a brawler in raid who has spec for accuracy on their raid wide, you would need a dirge in group who is wearing 6 set for their weapon skills accuracy enhancement, and you would need to whore your own 4 set instinct bonus. Under those circumstances Im pretty sure the Heavy Hammer will be the best parsing weapon for us in game, but if your accuracy is low and your hit rates are poor, then you will see huge variations in parses with the Heavy Hammer. From the incredibly high to the incredibly low. Sure it kind of averages out over the zone but youll pull slightly more DPS with a 5s or 6s delay weapon. At least, thats what my research and parses show.

Is the dirge 6 set a group wide bonus? just Ooi

Yes it is. It adds the accuracy bonus to their group weapon skills buff (Songster's Luck)
