Seasoned Roamer Aleric Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I've just beat another run through, this time on Normal because I haven't played in a long time. There are a lot of what I would consider end-game swords, like the Demonslayer, Spectral Falchion, Venomous Blade, and Flaming Sword. What are some of the combinations used? I typically used Demonslayer and the Spectral Falchion for demonkind, and switched to the Venom Bade and Flaming Sword for everything else. I can't tell if the blademaster bonus from the Falchion is stronger than the other swords. There are other swords as well, that cause slow, etc. So really I'm just starting a discussion on what everything thinks are the best combination of blades for a dual wielder.

Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 The +8 to Blademaster from the Spectral Falchion is incredible. It's a 24% bonus to damage, and if you're dual-wielding it applies to both of your weapons. Once you get it, you should have it equipped on someone all the time.

Hatchling Cockatrice Slawbug Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 The Spectral Falchion is incredible, but the Flaming Sword is actually MORE incredible. It adds a fairly high amount of bonus damage, and it does it to both weapons. Best of all, its bonus is relative to the weapon die size, whereas the Blademaster bonus (while quite awesome) is not actually a flat percentage increase: it increases your percentage multiplier. It's quite possible to be around 200% by endgame, so the +24% can really end up increasing your damage by less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Mechalibur Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I generally use Flaming Sword + Spectral Falchion. I swap the Flaming Sword for Demonslayer against demons since many of them are immune to its fire effect anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasoned Roamer Aleric Posted November 13, 2014 Author Share Posted November 13, 2014 I'm gonna have to give the Flaming Sword + Spectral Falchion a workout. I just stayed attached to the Venomous Blade because it is the Alien Blade from Exile and pretty much owned everything. Nostalgia and all.
