Stamblade Shield?

MickeyBN · June 2016

Hey guys just a quick question.

As of DB - how would a S&B stamblade compare with the typical 2-hander?

Is it viable in PvP?

Thanks!

Yup, stamblade can do anything without even touching the weapon skills. Not that it would be very good, but you can make it work.

S&B Stamblade is great in PvP. As I'm assuming this is a PvP oriented question. You'd want to slot 2H on your backbar still. Rally is a much needed skill for PvP. Between the heal and the Major Brutality buff - it's a must have.

You can most definitely use S&B as your main bar though. Would consider using Surprise Attack as your main source of DPS and throw in a Reverb Bash or Heroic Slash here and there for debuff sake. You would not need or want to use Peirce Armor as Surprise Attack does more damage and also applies the Major (Minor?) Fracture bonus.
