2h malice is nice pity they cant make it a polearm as well :-(

on classic go with Cl weapon

 

[eggy]

Use alacritous weapon until it procs, then swap to 2h malice, a legendary or a different damage type depending on how you're specced.

 

[Alhanna]

Malice can go polearm.

 

[eggy]

Only slash though!

 

[Alhanna]

And crush

 

[eggy]

Really? Since when?

 

[Alhanna]

(shrug) don't remember but I know someone who has tried it, and didn't like it.

Patch 1.78:

- Albion: The Artifacts Malice Axe and Battler will now be activatable as a Polearm
Slash weapon. Currently players that have either of these artifacts in their prior forms can trade them in at Scholar Jarron.

It was never allowed as crush...yet.

 

[Alhanna]

Kagato, help!

 

[scorge]

And crush

think your thinking of malice mace 1h crush

 

[Kagato]

Kagato, help!

Always dear,

Slight bit of confusion on the matter here, Malice and Battler have always been two-handed Slash or Crush.

But for polearms they could only be Slash, that is why I hated it, if they could be polearm crush then i'd still be using malice, but its not, its slash only in poles and that makes it utterly useless from an Albion perspective.


For the thread start.

All two-handed and polearm weapons are 100% strength based, even the thrust types.

For the two-handed choice you should look either at an Alacritous weapon if you can find one with good stats, there is some on the Excalibur ME, or a Malice two-hander or a Legendary elemental weapon.

Either you go for Malice or Alacritous or even the champion weapon i'd suggest going crush only, if Alacritous or champion then thrust if you plan to group. Legendaries don't matter your free to choose.

Personally though im not impressed with the champion weapons, its nice for a freebie but there are wiser options.

Best 2H weap is the CL one. But only because there is nothing quite so satisfying as walking round with a huge glowing red sword between your hands :worthy:

 

[Galaha]

[Galaha]

nm is unique . look for alacritous anyway
