Question. I have both S1 Daggers right now. For PVE, am I better off using THIS and THIS? OR should I spend the badges (please say no) on THIS?

Or do I wait until S4 and get S2 weapons?

I'm a nub at numbers. Please help.

Yea...maybe I'm the slow kid in the back of the room but I can never get this thing to work. I get visual basic compile errors when I click 'upgrade' and then 'cant't execute in break mode' errors when I click 'copy'...

103.1 dps weapon > 87.5 dps weapon, assuming the speed doesn't gimp the 103.1 weapon (it doesn't).

Well..there is a problem here. The Mutilator is an off hand weapon, and slow. I'm assuming you would replace the blade of unrequited with the mutilator. Thats all fine and dandy...but you're going to want to be combat for PvE. So, HUGE upper end damage on your main hand, and fast off hand works best.

I would suggest saving badges and getting a better main hand, imo. I'm pretty much the cookie cutter raiding dagger rogue, so look at my armory if you get a chance.


EDIT: Looking at your armory, I would stick with the PVP weapons...add Mongoose on those suckers ASAP! I meant to ask..where are you on the damage meters with that build. White damage is the really only thing you should be worried about.

Actually if you're talking for your main-hand, ignore the dps basically and look at the damage per hit. The emerald ripper will do more damage on specials. Now that being said, those three sockets are pretty tasty! I doubt they'll span the difference. But yeah, no mutilator for you.

I think what you want actually from the badge vendor is Blade of Serration.

Fortunately or unfortunately, however you want to look at it, that is clearly better than the s1 dagger.

No, you tools, he's mutilate and he wants a slow offhand.

In my own defense, he didn't state he was looking for an off-hand weapon.

Hehe thank you for the info...I was looking at the Blade of Serration as well...but I ended up blowing my 100 badges on THIS instead...and I'm going to Mongoose the two S1 weapons for the time being until I get another hundred badges...

Hopefully this wasn't a stupid move but it replaced my Gladitors chest for PvE.

In response to the dmg meters question - in Kara I'm usually 3rd behind 2 shammys.

Probably a good compromise. While the PvP weapons are great in PvE, the armour, not so much.

For PVE Mut use the S1 MH dagger and the Emerald Ripper, unless by "both S1 daggers" you mean you have 2 of the MH daggers.

PVE muti does better from slow/slow as you will get the poison procs eventually no matter what. In PVP, rogues go with the faster OH for Muti because Shiv costs 3-5 less energy.
