Hi guys is it still worth trying to beat maelstrom arena ? The weapons still the best?

No, it's not worth it. Yes, they are still the best.

50+ runs and I haven't got a single inferno staff. Save you self the heartache and trouble and don't bother.

its worth completing it once for the accomplishment, it absolutely beats any other achievement in the game because its solo. Can literally scream ALL ME BABY once you're done. Cant do that even if you clear vMoL.

Because it's the enchant that makes Maelstrom weapons unique, I feel the gap is closer than it used to be on some of those weapons.

My inferno standard destro staff has an enchantment for 340(trying to remember here)spell damage. Sure it has a cool down, but my Maelstrom inferno staff only has a constant 190 spell damage. (It also adds over 1000 damage to targets affected by Wall of Elements).

For PVP I don't notice too much difference.

True but you can add a poison to the vma staff and still keep the spell damage. Also as a 1 piece bonus it gives more spell damage than kena, so if you want to go 5+5+1 it's useful, although since update 12 there is now more choice if you want a 1 piece bonus.

To the op; yeah it's worth trying to beat it. You don't have to farm it, but you might find you want to once you know you can beat it.
