Im looking for a Sb spec for a classic server (US)
Just caped out from molvik at RR3 and so far i have just been goofing around with a 39 CS, 30 Stealth, 30 Axe spec. i have done great and have found it worked fine but as one gets closer to bigboy rvr i know its not that easy, so what to do now for next two BG´s and after that give 50 sb rvr a try?

I played a 50 sb on pryd many years aggo and that was my worst atempt ever, i won maybe 10% of the fights and never reached rr3 (before NF and stuff) but now its actually semi fun hehe

do i "have" to go for LA spec? i mean is it really importent to be compatative? or stay with 2H?

IF anyone have the time to give a few hints and tips and also explain why u think either way it would be great!

Cheers :cheers:

44 CS
25 LA lowest (side stun)
35 Stealth/Envenom at most
and weapon spec at a composite 50

you get a stun-chain at 34 Axe, 39 Sword and at 39 LA

difference between 2h PA and 2x 1h isn't that great, do as you like.

Though, my second SB is a 2h-only Critblade, with 20% Haste and Celerity it -hurts-. Wouldn't go 2h without that though due to the slow swingspeed.

<waves to Svartalf> Waiting for the start of Tabula Rasa, looks promising :)

2h without a serious amount of haste is very very random. Goes from utterly obliterating your opponent to not scratching them at all.
The "boost" to 2h is just that evade isn't halfed by dual-wielding anymore. The other one is a slight increase to PA and BS damage, but that one just brings the dps to about the same as a dual-wielding PA -> Bigger numbers but slower followup problem.

Wouldn't it be more stable to keep it as 1hd and only use 2hd for enemy standing around or after side stun or any stun for that matter and switch to 2hd then just for those purpases?
