Morning all,

 

I've done a bit of searching on the forums, and outside the forums, but I can't seem to find a complete answer.

 

With ABS and Dual Abyssals more or less the same price now (give or take) I'm wondering which is better; overall and for a variety of scenarios.

 

My initial assumptions are the ABS is better in most scenarios. Happy to be corrected though.

 

However, does this take into consideration that concentrated blast > sonic wave in terms on DPS over time. Or, considering the type of monster you're facing. For ease of discussion, let's split this into high life points and low life points.

 

Also, I tend to use Revolution. So again, is there much difference between the two weapons when considering revolution Vs manual abilities.

 

And not to forget that Abyssals save runes, like SoL. But i'm not really too worried about this at this stage..

 

Finally, does anyone have any sort of stats to explain how much better either of these are compared to SoL.

 

Any thoughts, let me know.

 

Thanks,

 

 

Dual wield is better DPS than 2h, abyssal wins.

 

For 2h to be remotely better it needs to be a full 10 level tier ahead and even then its a bit debatable in some instances (eg Chaotic staff > ahrims and treachery)

 

Therefore abyssal kind wipes the floor with its equal (lvl 75 sol), and with the two 2h counterparts close to it (abs and chaotic), so unless you can afford virtus or sesimic your best off using abyssal.
