Stamsorc skills question

Tigerboy78
So Crystal Weapon vs Rapid Strikes vs (insert spammable here). I like Crystal Weapon but I feel like the dps from Rapid Strikes is better? I'm just curious if it's best to drop CW for something else.

I love Dual Wield for pve so I want to stick with DW skills if possible.

On a side note is CW viable for pvp at all?

    Crystal weapon enabled stamsorcs to stay competitive in this proc meta. Dizzying swing into a medium attack with vateshran 2h is a killer combo. If your opponent is tankier - add Dawnbreaker after that -> execute.
    CW gave stamsorcs burst potential which was lacking before.
    Somewhere I have a vid where I one-shot a person who forgot his food buff only with a heavy attack in CP pvp.

    Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the two are VERY close. I have seen parses well north of 100k with both of them. I think the best answer for pure DPS is actually wrecking blow, but most people opt for crystal weapon because its insta cast which makes you better able to react and swap cancel if you need to.

    That's been my experience with dummies anyway. More damage with WB, but CW instant cast can make a difference when not on a dummy.
