Did they forget combat swords in 2.4?Follow

#1 Apr 30 2008 at 10:09 AM Rating: Decent
Ok..I just became exalted w/ the Shattered Sun Off....and I'm wondering...wtf does this do for me besides the pretty tabbard?

I'm a LW / Skinner..so the JC patterns don't help..the weapons from the quartermaster are lame (not the badge vendor)

The weapons that are available from the badge vendor....don't include swords...

The necklace you can get @ exalted doesn't work unless you're also exalted w/ the aldor/scryer..which i'm not...

So i'm wondering..besides the 3 pieces of badge gear...

What did 2.4 do for combat swords rogues?

not much from what I can tell...

Am I missing something?

They gave you 100.3 dps fists and the daily gold you need to respec to combat fists.

Depending on which swords you're using the fist weapons may be a DPS upgrade.

They also work fine for a 20/0/41 PVP build if you decide to use them for that.

ExaltedRevered with SSO allows you to buy The Sunbreaker


One of the best MH sword in the game for rogue thats not epic. They gave combat swords nothing? Really?

Mouseovering the sword tells me that it actually required revered.

You need to change the spec from swords to fists, sparky.

Swords > Fists for DPS, I believe.

I would think that the Badge fists would win in raw DPS, though.

beh. I'm no expert on DPS.

Let's see here...

103 DPS fists vs 91 DPS swords.

I wonder which will be higher DPS?

Unless you're using some moronic build, fists win, easily.

To the tune of ~53 more DPS, using my gear.

Swords give me 1508 DPS buffed, fists give me 1561 buffed.

Have fun being an idiot and down-rated, moron.

Read what he said, he is commenting on the revered sword not the badge fists.

Did you put the correct OH fist into the spreadsheet? One is a 1.5 spd and the other is 2.5 spd. If you try to use the 2.5 OH you will gimp your dps. Try your spreadsheet again and double check this; I'll bet you come out ahead.

wow are you serios theophany? You act like this in a public forum?

I'm referring to the s1 swords..was never referring to that blue sword..


SO maybe i'm doing something wrong w/ the spreadsheet..maybe you are..who knows....I don't

In case you forgot...the subject of the post was 'did they forget combat swords rogues'...never been interested in fists..but a good side note to point out..

What I do know is people like theophany ruin this game...it is really disappointing...WOW can be so much fun...and discussing it is fun too...but just like in game...occassionaly you run into that a$$h0le..that makes you wonder why you even bother w/ it...theophany is that *******..

Grow up kid..who gives a **** about being 'down-rated' on a second class website? I sure don't....big bad moderator..w/ an avatar of their toon..ooooo..

The only reason I come back to this POS is the forums...maybe not anymore...

Advice for theophany...If you act like this on the forums I can only make the assumption that you're not happy in your life..and in regards to that..I feel bad for you, really..not a joke..I do. Maybe you can get a GF or a life outside of wow forums...it's your choice. .

But please..leave the negative teenage **** at your home..not in public..

GG kid

To the rest of you, I appreciate your input..keep it up. Somebody needs to offset the negative BS from theo.

You're kinda missing the point where you were wrong...

Also, I think we need a sign on the front of the Rogue forums: DO NOT ENTER UNLESS YOU CAN DEAL WITH INSULTS AND BEING PROVED WRONG.

I was not proved wrong in any way, shape or form...show me a SS of your spreadsheet...I'm at work or I could post one of mine...

and at what point does that constitute somebody to act like a 13 year old?


excuse me while I cry b/c my name isn't in bold and blue anymore...

If you've posted in the past you'd know that about 4% of all posts DON'T turn into flame wars. Take what you can out of the posts and deal with the rest...otherwise, you're excused, the door is ---> that way.

Yeah, now you were proved wrong.

I don't care about you insulting me or anyone else, but you were flat out wrong, proving you're a moron.
