Results:
Two handed left me with enough endurance to finish off the Malefic Phantom with 9 swings using the Bone Bruiser/Splitter/Breaker chain and few Rile swings with around 90% health left.

S/S left me with zero endurance and around the same health as the TH spec did. It took 15 total swings to finish off the Malefic Phantom, But notice I ran out of End. after 11 swings using the Amethyst/Diamond chain.

To me 2H (and pole) seems the way to go over the S/S route if you want to deal out the most damage. I’m still not too impressed with the damage results. Maybe a better TH sword like the Ancient Two-Handed Sword (with Endurance Chant proc.) that drops from the Stone quest or a PC’d & SC’d Great Scimitar (DPS 16.5 SPD 4.8) would yield even better results.

Still not sure if I’m gonna respec to 2H or not.

No but that sure would come in very handy for things just like this. Good idea you had making it. :thumbs:

Wow that must be one tiny sword to be that fast. I would never use anyting under 3.5 or so because of the lack of damage.
