It seems that all the 600 2 handers are better for wizards than warriors. I think warriors need some straight up melee oriented weps like up the peircing add dodge and better attack stats, 4 space attack - getting rid of the magic damage stuff its of no use to a warrior and confusing as they would work better on a wizard.
Example: the Demonstroke; As a warrior why would i need 100% necro with life steal at 5% that does almost nothing
Warriors dont really have a pure Melee 600 wep and we need a couple.
Thoughts?
The +atk and damage range is the melee part, the extras like SDM and procs are just fluff to make each weapon different instead of copy pasted with a different weapon type. It also rewards hybridising which is cool, Adventurers love these especially. So if you hypothetically just imagine the unique fluff stuff was removed they'd be plenty viable as pure melee weaps. They just have a few extra fun things added on top of that.
The problem I see however is that wizards are using these weapons over their own. When a feeble wizard is choosing a 2h sword over the specifically designed wizard weapon and a shield then that's an issue to me, though it's slightly off topic so I'm not going to go into it.
Do you like the idea of having a couple of PURE melee weps though? I have seen some wizzies using the 2 handers simply for the magic buffs
Its good to have options. As a wizard you barely use the weapon anyways. If you want to trade the AR for diff. Stats from a 2hander than you gotta make the decision. But the 2handers arent better for wiz than the short swords.
I use a maul on my Adv because I like the thaum boost for healing.
Clubs and Maces are melee only weapons and dont boost sdm.
I found a Brain Buster for my ASGW and it rocks
What I would like to see is an added sdm to the throwers. Even a modest one.
I just don't really see the need for PURE melee weaps. They'd likely just be what we currently have without SDM or procs because the damage numbers and amount of attacks is balanced so you can't really buff those numbers.
