 Does the heavy attack rating focus beat out the Ornate battle axe which can be built for crit rating and crit damage?

Nothing beats out the Ornate Battleaxe under the effects of Mighty Offense Tonic. 

 

Hossberg Twainer is the best otherwise.

[Fullmetall21]

As said before you have 3 options, you can go for Ornate Battleaxe (good luck farming it though) if you are like crazy with min/max everything. Under certain scenarios this weapon is simply THE best

Or, you could go for the Hossberg Twainer if you just want the best stand alone weapon stat wise, or you could go with whatever for the looks since the game is really easy even on nightmare.

I am trying to find the Balanced Greatsword.  I have all the other Schematics for 2H Weapons.  Question though....what's better building for attack%, Strength, or Crit Chance%?  I've been trying to get Attack % thinking this will cause my basic swings to do the most damage...or is it strength that determines basic swing damgage?

[Shevy]

Well, attack and strength are more or less the same stat. Strength grants 0.5 attack per point. The rest really depends on personal preference and your specialisation. For 2H champion I would suggest : crit chance > crit damage > attack. You are very dependent on crits due to cooldown reduction.

 

For 2H reaver I would suggest: attack>crit chance>crit damage. The reaver abilities (dragons rage and devour) don't need cd reduction and for the rest you are fine with ~ 40% crit chance.

 

Since I never played 2H templar I can't comment on it really.

Thanks man.  You got any advise on the stupid HW merchant and restocking his stuff?  I can't seem to do it no matter how many times I try.  I've read everything on here and nothing seems to be working for me.  I want the best armor (Superior Battlemaster Armor)  I am guessing the Arms and Legs for these are farmed?

[Shevy]

The only method for restocking I know of is the one I elaborated on in the "Short List" thread. It should work, but can take some time because some short list items are just normal things in the weapon,armor or accessoires category. Just make sure to buy/sell something at a different merchant (would suggest Bonnie Sims in Skyhold) and save in this particular zone after doing above. Then quit the game completely and restart it. Everything besides that is pure luck and needs patience.

 

Imo, the best arms and legs are the ones the HW merchant is selling because the other two alternatives don't have utility slots. The next time I fire up my game I can make a screen of my stats and list my equip if you want.

So I've read that Crit Chance is what I should go for, then now I am seeing that pure Attack % is what I should go for.  I just made an Ornate Battle Axe that has a 50% Crit chance.  Overall I got a 65% Crit Chance but base damage of 233 (with Dragon Bone the AOE is 256, 347 dps with Superb Demon Rune).  I can't tell if the my damage is any better than my Suledin Blade with 46 strength.  I posted this in the Class and builds thread, though it belongs here.

It's too bad Bioware did not include a schematic for the refined greatsword and long sword (the swords that were in the trailers, and used in the demos) those are the best looking swords in the game...

For real. The refined greatsword is an amazing model in-game and I would love schematics for Cassandra's starter weapons. That sword and that shield are just amazing.

[KennethAFTopp]

I agree, I will say the same about the Last stand and the Whale, those two as schematics would be amazing.

[sethroskull79]

So far in my game I did a bit of experimenting with crafting.  With all the schematics I have for pommels, hafts, greatsword grips (not sure if I have em all) the best weapon for Critical Chance % is the Ornate Battle Axe (50% chance base weapon, pommel and haft).  The best Attack % based weapon I could make was the Balanced Greatsword (59% Attack base weapon, pommel, greatsword grip).  Has anyone gotten higher #s just weapon and upgrades, not armor or cunning or Varric factored in?  And what is best for total damage going forward?  Thanks.

Hossberg Twainer can be filled with every slot with attack %, thus gets the highest attack rating.

dwarven maul at haven, that was the best drop in any playthrough with regards to a powerful weapon early on, shortly after I got the masterwork version of it in valanmaar

Man, I got the Hossberg.  Maybe I don't have all the best Pommels and Hafts yet.  Couldn't sniff 70%.  Oh well.  Thanks for setting the bar high.  

[Lord Raijin]

Actually, near the end of the game Meredith's sword is dropped, called: Certainity
(Altough it's stats are not that good )

Yup

I want the next dragon age patch to add all weapon schematic(Oh armor too)

[KennethAFTopp]

I've been wondering how viable is the Superb greatsword of the Dragon, at the end game.

Mainly wondering and thinking that by the time weapons reach around the 200+ in damage it becomes more of a question of visual look than actual damage and so on.
