So since there's really no official guide, it's a bit hard to decide what's
the best way to get the most out of your weapons.
Would be nice if anyone can share some concrete facts about two-handed
weapons versus dual wielding, versus elemental weapons, etc etc.
My own experiments have thus far proven rather inconsistent resultwise.
At first, I thought wielding two weapons would yield greater chance of
landing attacks. That doesn't seem to be the case- though the second weapon
does seem to come into play randomly since my offhand poison dagger is
poisoning targets at times.
Then I experimented using blunt weapons on skeletal creatures, thinking
that'd by logic do more damage. So far that is not the case.
It would almost seem that if you dual wield, you miss more often, but to
that I'm not 100% certain if it's just bad luck or actual coded logic.
One thing that seems to work extremely well is to wield an elemental weapon-
despite they're usually lower in weapon rating- and then pack on as many
equipments that'd boost that particular damage type.
For example, my warrior with a blazing mace, weapon rating 68 (I think), and
wearing a pair of infernal rings, can output more damage than him wielding a
weapon rating 94 greatsword.
On that note, has anyone find any effective way to hit ethereal monsters
with melee weapons? I know there's bless weapon and charge weapon and such,
but the damage dealt is so low it's laughable.
