So I had already a great 2h weapon with the starfang (236 AOE dmg, 11% armor pen. 6% attack, 36 str, 2% chance unbowed) but now I had another unique 2h weapon namely the boon of the spoon (yes it looks like a large spoon) which has 209 damage, 24% stagger, 8 willpower and most importantly targets killed explode for 75% dmg.
I tried both and I just dont know which to use. The starfang does a lot of damage but the explosions from the spoon are also great. Any advice?
What character do you prefer, reaver or katari? And if reaver, are you using dragon rage as your standard form of attack?
I couldn't say, every time I open a chest the game just shits in my face.
Out of curiosity though what is your challenges completed at ? And how much gold have you earned?
Trying to figure out if RNJESUS hates me I should keep grinding and my time will come.
I prefer to play the mages mostly. though I did promote Katari, Reaver and templar 1x already. Whished more for one of those 140+ DPS staff and all I get are great 1h and 2h weapons. my challenge thingy is 211 btw and it says I collected 208k gold.
What character do you prefer, reaver or katari? And if reaver, are you using dragon rage as your standard form of attack?
I like them both and with reaver I do use dragon rage but only with rampage so I don't die too soon.
I like using starfang with katari. Its nice to get some extra guard generation, and has come in handy for me.
Im assuming the boon of the spoon is a maul type weapon, since you listed it as damage instead of aoe damage. Maul standard attacks are pretty terrible in my opinion, but if you are using dragon rage it doesnt matter. Might be worth a good couple of tests if you can stay alive well enough.
I have boon of the spoon also and the explosion also triggers on other skils like charging bull so can be kinda fun but as said above its a maul and very clunky to use
For Katari, considering the squishyness, a weapon that can generate guard is worth having. Also, from experience I prefer an AoE weapon to a maul (direct attack) type weapon, as mauls are definintely clunky.
My Templar is using the Estwatch (sp?) shield which generates guard on hit, and I can tell you it makes a positive difference towards survivability.
Spoon could work for pure crowd control but you HAVE to have another warrior in the party that takes some of the aggro off you and stares down the bosses.
But in my experience, if you want enemies to group together chances are they won't, and in a critical moment in a boss fight you'll be wishing you had the better DPS instead.
Crowd control is better used with actual abilities like Whirlwind and Charging Bull. Having a weapon with lower DPS just makes everything you do weaker because abilities are calculated based on your weapon.
