Name three weapons that you think are the best in-games and 3 that are the worst

[mad_lee]

On valdun: Valdun is still far from being worst, tho. It’s not even meme level like Spark of Reality. It’s good, just not on the level you expect it to be.

On Mindwarp/swords: Mindwarp might be OP, but it’s a necessary evil to make Krieg builds (aka what the newbs will look for), work. Without it, only binders will be able to use Krieg set effectively.

I don’t mind Mindwarp being op, I just wish most swords were at least 60% that good.

I second this. Really, it’s just the low AS bonus and middling skill bonuses that leave it a tad behind the pack of really great sets.

It’s not “tad behind”, it’s way behind. Low AS, low middling skill bonuses and low armor piercing make it a gimmicky set.

It’s designed for Tacticians, but what tactician would take it over Elemental/Fire/Physical Forcewave or physical/elemental Cadence (both melee and ranged).

Best weapons

1. Mythical Witching Hour
2. Mythical Spark of Ultos

There is no #2 because Witching Hour is that far above Spark of Ultos, and no other pet weapons are actually particularly good. A few are worth using in some circumstances, but are nowhere near as good.

Worst weapons
Everything that doesn’t have pet bonuses or bonuses to pet skills. Seriously, how is this even a question?

You can’t ignore the granted skill + shotgun WPS it gives. Try combining it with double jaxxon’s and stormspread. :rolleyes:

You’ve forgot the Finger of Gar’Dalvur.

Surelly it should be among the best designed weapons in all gaming history.

What would be in our opinion a non-2h alternative to WH for Cabalists (generic, non-Salazar builds)? Voidpeircer? Claw of Hagarraz? And what about Conjurers?

For Cabalist, Claw of Hagaraz is a good generic one hander, I used it on my Diviner build that I never posted. Blightstone Invoker and Plaguebearer of Dreeg are good for Blightfeind builds. I’ve never been impressed by Veilpiercer.

For Ritualists, I used Ravagers Bite successfully on a Diviner build. Not a huge fan of Ritualists in general though.

For Conjurers, Ive used both Claw of Hagaraz and Black Scourge.

1. Farath’s Cube Not so much for the stats but because it makes FoI look incredible! Goes wonderfully with blue balls of death and various arcane/inquisitor based seals.

2. Myth Stonefist Rebuke - Simple, effective, part of one of the better builds out there.

3. Myth Arcanor, Blade of the Luminari Such a good weapon. Between the RR, great caster stats, and inquisitor skills this actually manages to out FoI the FoI centric weapons (if you can manage the fearsome energy cost without a caster offhand…) while also enabling its own very powerful rainbow damage forcewave spec. And the active is a great skill in its own right!

Like: only have one favorite weapon in game for now: The blessed spear of Alister Forgebearer. History was never the same the moment he used that great weapon to smite a great evil.

Hate: all weapons that stinks with moral decay.:eek:

So obviously each kind of build can’t have a weapon of the same strength, some builds have amazing (and affordable) weapons some require a double rare mi. But, based on your experience, what 3 weapons are just massive and absolute beasts and give their related builds so much and what 3 weapons are the worst, have useless modifiers that don’t make sense and are basically a let down if you build around them? It can be epic or rare or MI weapons, just your personal top3.

Here is my best 3:

1. Mythical Ultos’ Stormseeker (2h axe). Absolute beast, insane amount of stats in one weapon, it has everything one could wish for and some more. Up to 19% CDR and a mod that makes Primal Strike hit a pretty huge area make this weapon especially Godly.
2. Mythical Arcanor, Blade of Luminari: This weapon is totally insane. I’ve never used it (don’t play soldiers) but just look at it, it has a ridiculous amount of +skills to a Forcewave Tactician, -rr mod to the most op defensive spell in-game, Forcewave conversion, sick casting speed and a Devastation like spell but with 6 seconds recharge.
3. Mythical Wrath of the Ascendant: one of my favourite sticks, it’s a pretty little beast that makes insane CT binders even more insane. Stats speak for themselves

My worst 3:

1. Blazeheart. A bit of a letdown, as well as the whole defiler mastery. Even two of those don’t make Defiler good. And Mark of Torment duration boost is a very weak skill modifier for an offensive melee weapon, imo.
2. Mythical Valdun’s Rifle: tried theorycrafting around it a lot, but damn, stats on it are so bad. There is no way to reach 100% piercing on this one, which is very frustrating.
3. Mythical Grim Fate: I still don’t understand what this sword supposed to do.

Mythical grim fate is used for a sigil / transmuted Blackwater cocktail build. Still one of my favorite builds.
