What would happen if...

[Wiro]

You'd spec 50 CS / 50 lw / 28 parry on a hero?
Would that just give you "uber" dmg with 3 dmg types? Anyone ever tried this spec? Is it just for slam that nobody seems to have this spec or some other reason?
Cheers

using the shield in rvr is pretty handy to be honest ..

but if thats what u wanna do go for it

well ofc its possible, what did u mean by that?

if you went that spec, you would mainly use LW for annihilation, and then switch to CS for thrust dmg. so you could as well go shield and slam instead, + have the ability to guard

Not keen on LW hero's myself, they lack the snare, dd and debuffs that a LW champ has to help them land that Annihilation and make it hurt.

As for "uber" damage with 3 dmg types, sure you can get thrust, slash and blunt dmg that way, but can't equip all 3 weapons, so it means frantic weapon changes during combat which can get you killed.

no slam, no guard, may as well roll a BM if you only want damage output.
