Has anyone found any use for the Blackrose 2H? (Radial Uppercut)

Moonsorrow

As the topic says, has anyone thought of any good use for the Blackrose Prison 2h? Dizzy Swing full damage to 1 other target close to the original target.. sounds decent, but personally have not yet thought of any clever use for it.

Maybe with Sword-Singer set and spam Dizzy like mad at everything that moves.. Thats all i can think of i guess. Maybe at Cyrodiil inner keep flag battles can hit other target too since everyone so close at those situations.

Anything i have not thought of, any ideas?

No

This skill is trash as soon as there is lag and welll.... lag is everywhere in cyrodill.

Yeh, landing Dizzy can be.. challenging, thats true.

But, who knows.. maybe Uppercut gonna be updated/changed someday to be more easy to land, or even made instant spammable (with less damage), so will atleast keep the farmed 2H in storage if such a day ever comes.

And yeah, this weapon is underwhelming compared to the DW from Blackrose that is awesomeness imo. Also the resto staff is really nice.

Definitely hang onto it as I'm still hoping they will rework Wrecking Blow one of these days. At the moment the only thing it's good for is clearing the guards grouped around resource flags.

No amount of sugar coating can make a dizzy swing build viable. Keep waiting for another two years for an uppercut buff that won't happen though, I won't be the one to steal your dreams.

Yeah, the only time I've used it was in overland on NB to one-shot two mobs from stealth instead of one. Makes groups a bit less annoying. Otherwise? Pretty much useless.

The only I saw for this weapon is PvE cleaving on AoE builds for situations where you get less use of master 2H or your main focus is downing one target with some strong targets spawning to assist from time to time.

So situational use on niche build in portion of pve (dungeons, arenas)

viable for what? PvE?

I mean, my heavy armor stamDK is running around Cyrodiil with Dizzying Swing 2H maul build, i say it's plenty viable with the right build.

but yes, PvE is crap, even for single-target.

So yeah, this sword kinda trash with the lag and the focus of PvP is burst, and we got more AoE option. and PvE it's pretty useless for anything other than soloing world boss?

I play an uppercut build in pve. But not the stunning morph, obviously, the other one. 36,5k dps without fracture on 3M.
34,5k on 6M.

~40k on vet trial bosses.
50k+ only during execute phases.
(Stormfist, Leviathan, Veiled Heritance, Maelstrom Bow)

It's not huge, but I'd say it's enough to dismiss "not viable/crap". Depends what you want to do I guess. But for most people it's fine, and it's a lot of fun. DW got me bored. And the 2H outfit styles are better, with less clipping

I wouldn't use the weapon anyway. Not really worth it in most scenarios.
