Maelstrom 2h for Arcanist

Xarbokk

So with Fatecarver now being classified as Direct Damage, will Merciless Charge now be the preferred choice to back bar for an Arcanist?

Definetly for Templars.
It is an option for Arcanist. But Arcs do not have as many Direct Damage attacks in their kit.

Beam in any time alway is arc 50-65% part dps so I think maybe 90% time greatsword is best ,but in aoe combat,my nb and sorc (2 class 90% dmg is direct type)sometime still need use staff back bar(reef hm)
But I not sure,nb and sorc not have any/low aoe spam if arc beam still op they can give up staff back bar
