1 handed spec wep for tds

[manitstinks]

So I was thinking about getting a void deflector. If I do that,

1. What 1 handed spec weapon can I use?

2. What should I replace the extra void piece with? I'm thinking of d hide body or barrows gloves

Since you have chaotic, enhanced excalibur. The only special attacks that deal better than chaotic are 2h.

The deflector is great for off-task ranging. Iirc Grimy Bunyip calculated that void + arma plate has higher dps than full arma, even at the highest defence levels. For melee, you'll want barrows gloves (since you are giving up a defender and void is an offensive setup. If you need a barrows/bandos plate with void, I suspect you'd be better off using full bandos + defender). Void mage is still not worth it.

An alternative to Excalibur would be DDP++. If you want the offensive boost.

The problem with that, as bladewing said, is that the dds may deal less damage per second than would a chaotic weapon.

 

in other words, you deal less damage by switching to dds and speccing and then going back to your chaotic weapon than you would by just attacking with your chaotic weapon.

 

 

i'm not saying bladewing is correct that no 1h weapon is worthwhile, but it may be true

So with chaotic theres no need for darklight anymore?

this is incorrect

 

 

 

 

are you under the impression that you are supposed to darklight spec tormented demons? if so, then no, you are not supposed to do this

I have no knowledge of TDS. Im actually getting ready to complete While Guthis Sleeps so I can fight them for myself. And for the recors, yes I though you had to use Darklights special attack to weaken their shields.

So we just have to hit them normally with them and actually hit to lower the shield?

Yes, hit and deal damage with darklight to lower the shield.

note that was for essentially maxed out ranging gear.

The numbers could be skewed otherwise for lower ranged bonuses.

Just keep that in mind.

Void range is VERY good however.
