Help with my weapons

MickeyBN · November 2016

I've recently acquired a few pieces of a certain set, not the exact ones I wanted but close enough. I need help deciding which to settle on.

These are my choices:

Sharpened Dagger & Precise Sword

Defending Mace x2

I actually don't mind the dual defending, giving me a sweet 5k to resistances, considering I wear 5p medium seems pretty tasty, whilst still retaining the 20% phys pen.

However, most would argue that Sharpening in PvP is a must have for a Stamblade.

Until I find myself a second sharpened these are my options but in the meantime I can't help but wonder which would suit me more. I'm far from being a seasoned PvPer so I wanted your opinions.

Thanks!

Well Sharpened is king right now, for DPS. precise boosts your crit, so how is your Crit % already, if it's high you don't really need more over another sharpened. And, as alot of people run Impen or wards in PvP Crits are less important.

Dual sharpened is a 10% increase to your damage assuming it doesn't over penetrate (Kra'gh 1-piece for example with 2000 penetration is a 3.9% increase). The 20% from maces is applied after debuffs (but before flat penetration) and only amounts to a decent value against heavy armor.

You're probably better off using a crafted set or agility + 2x (1piece weapon damage) weapons such as Leki until you can get optimal weapons of your new set.
