The black rose 2h adds an aoe effect to a single target skill but feels incredibly uninspired to me:
- its basically a worse version of the master 2h without adding anything new or interesting
- it doesnt seem very functional adding aoe capabilities to this kind of single target skill
Do you (dis)agree? Do you use it yourself? What could other effects be?
For example:
- adding a dot to the skill
- reducing the armor of the enemy hit
- other?
- its basically a worse version of the master 2h without adding anything new or interesting

✭✭Maybe my post is a little off topic, but I made a suggestion for changing Uppercut.
First button press does the conan sword blossom technique and drains stamina per second.
Second button press does the uppercut move.
And then blackrose 2h weapon could do something truly unique with that new uppercut.0 -

lol gw2 has an axe skill that basically does that and protects from projectiles while doing so, last skill, whirling defense

I'm not saying its a good or bad effect necessarily but it does synergize decently with the 2H skill line which has an emphasize on AoE damage. Between Light and Heavy Attacks dealing damage to nearby targets, Reverse Slice morph dealing AoE splash damage to nearby targets, Cleave dealing damage to multiple enemies in a wide cone, and Berserker Strike also dealing splashing damage, it makes sense at least. Especially if you opt for Executioner instead of Reverse Slice, you have an alternate source of dealing AoE damage to others.
And it is world's better than its previous version. Now that was the epitome of uninspired.0 -

If Uppercut was changed to that spinning sword move conan does then Black Rose 2 hander could make it deflect projectiles during the spin!

✭✭✭✭✭I agree with you, OP.
I don't really see the point of this set in either PvE or PvP.
In PvE, the fights that matter are nearly universally single-target and in PvP, with players moving all around at all times, you're never going to be bursting down an entire BG team with DSwing unless they are all somehow AFK.
This set and the Destruction Staff are in dire need of re-works.1 -

Its also because even if you want to fight groups of enemies youre better off with the master greatsword0
