PvE Nightblade DW/2H - Warrior or Thief Mundus

ADarklore · August 2015

I know the Warrior Mundus is receiving a buff in 1.7, will Nightblades currently running Thief be switching? I am currently running Thief, but wonder if the increased weapon damage coming to Warrior would make it more useful?

I would say that warrior would be better for a Nightblade. It's easy enough for a Nightblade to crit, but increasing weapon damage will make you hit harder when you do and don't crit. My 2 cents.

That was kind of my thinking too, especially coupled with Divines traits that will boost Warrior's weapon damage even more. I was just curious to see if anyone else was also going to go this route with Warrior.

I honestly you should never use the thief stone as the crit benefit just isnt that good compared to max stamina or increased wep damage. Many have also suggested that the shadow stone is worth it as the extra crit damage is great for people who have over 70% crit rating. I also believe it got a buff so I think if you dont need the stamina or stamina regen the shadow stone is for people with over 70% crit and under 70% you want the warrior.

Also you talked about divine traits but 9/10 crafted armor with divines is still worse than having all drop sets with well fitted as you can combine sets better for more wep damage. Then again with the increase to the warrior stone each % is more valuable so it could be better to run 5 hundings than 3 dreugh king and 2 morag tong but we will see.

It is best to use the the warrior until you can keep your crit above 50% then switch to Shadow mundus stone. Thief is ok but even before the buff comming next patch Warrior is better imo.

Why not both?

Warrior by a large margin.
