Sig for armory, hope it's my pvp on right now. My AP is only at 1500, am I in the right spot? I was in a ShS build sitting at 1750, but now I'm in Theo's Combat Muti spec (yea theo you were right, my old build was inferior). Should I wait until you can buy purple gems w/ badges (80% right now) and re-gem? I feel like my white dmg is very low after coming out of a higher AP build.

Secondly - if I'm going to switch over to swords, which ones should I be looking at? I was thinking Latro's is fairly easy to farm, and I'll have plenty of HP to pick up both S1's shortly. I never pay attention to the sword threads /fail.

Thanks,
-MAG

Save up honor for the S2 swords when they become available for Honor.

So I'm assuming this is for PVP? (even if you said "hope it's my pvp one right now") If not and it's for PVE, you're hit is low...

If for PVP, is it the same as combat swords PVE where you'd like a slow MH and a fast OH? If this is the case, then maybe switching your MH to a slower weapon will make the difference.

i'd say for PvP your AP is pretty good with that build. One gem you could replace is the crit+dodge gem, unless its being used for meta req.

As for swords, definitely wait till next season and get the S2, not the S1.

Thanks - yea this is my PVP set, PVE has 331 hit :)

KT - that was the gem I was thinking about switching. I guess I have to wait until the next gait is open and for S4.

What kind of AP does a ShS swords build generate?

I have just about the best gear possible for ShS and I have 1909 AP.

You should basically be gemming the same way for both builds, just change the meta.

IMO respeccing combat for raids is the way to go; ShS is fine for 5 mans and heroics.

My PvP gear/spec

1995 AP 33.88% crit

The only upgrades I can tihnk of are the gems and some BT/Sunwell drops.

Armory seems down atm, those are the stats I tihnk I have.

When I respec muti I lose a lot of atk pwr.

1500 is very respectable, and is good damage as mutilate.

You can do 5 mans in PvP spec very easily, especially 41/20 muti/combat.

Yea I figured so I checked out your gear last night. I'll look at Devzzz when the armory is back up.

I picked up two shi**y swords last night, 72 dps each I think, and am going to mess around with shs pvp and combat for kara/gruuls until S2 welfares come out.

Thanks for the help :)
