TWF with Green Rapiers, What does yours look like?

[Flintsen]

Screen shots please

You mean duel wielding Mineral 2 rapiers? Well I am at work so I can't show you a screenshot. But it looks ...well green? I guess. Equip two acid rapiers off auction house... it looks like that... or close to dat :confused:

[Flintsen]

I mean what are people putting on them, how are you making them, just wanted to get some ideas

[debo]

My ranger duel wields mineral 2 rapiers. One has the +4 insight bonus... the other one has acid blast for the extra dps.

Sorry didn't know what you meant at first :)

Piercing specced barb, finishing making one Mineral II then one Lightning II (I hate scales).

W/P for non red named
Mineral II and an xmuting of Greater bane for Harry
Mineral II and Lightning II for other red named
Mineral II and an xmuting of maiming for DR red names where I dont have a greater bane.


Going pure Blast damage on both as they are mainly for end boss fights where DPS is king

[Do'Urden]

Lots and lots and lots of choices for a dual wielder amongst the Greensteel Items.....personally the target for my DEX/Finesse build is:

Mineral II - Earth (Acid) + Positive (Good Burst) + Earth/Positive (+4AC Insight Bonus at Tier III for me)
Bonus Effects: 2x Stoneskin Clicky, Transmuting, Keen, Slicing, Mineral

Lightning II - Air (Shocking) + Positive (Good Burst) + Air/Positive (Good Blast)
Bonus Effects: 2x Chain Lightning Clicky, Lighting Strike

Very very very expensive for this but that's what I want :cool:

[Ninety]

my ranger has 2 mineral 2 (1 short sword and 1 rapier)

I went holy, acid burst, acid blast on both since AC really isn't that important.

Off topic, but just wanted to point out that +4AC Insight Bonus can be very important to certain builds especially since it stacks with Icy Rainments, Chattering Ring, etc. I'll be in the high 50s / low 60s self-buffed dual wielding if I can ever get my hands on all the proper loot :)

Air/Positive (Good Blast)

Just to let you know AIR is dominant at tier 3 for lightning, so you will end up with Shocking Blast. No big deal, I ran into the same issue with the blasting effect for Mineral II. It has to be Acid Blast, because Earth is dominant.

It won't matter for the +4AC Insight, because both Earth and Positive produce the same effect.

My Ranger/Barb carries Radiance II

Off the top of my head:

Flaming, Good Burst, 4d6 Light Damage and Blind on crit. I think I'm missing something.

Once I get the VoD goggles, look out.

Absolutely false, but I'll not hijack this thread for the sake of discussion. Catch me in-game and we'll argue about AC. :)

I personally love the mineral II holy/acid burst/ac4.

[rpasell]

since AC really isn't that important.

Remind me to never be the cleric in your party

[Vengenance]

Not a rapier user, but my Khopesh wielding Dwarf Ranger uses one mineral II Khopesh w/Positive-Earth-Earth/Positive for Holy, Acid Burst, Acid Blast, Keen, Transmuting, etc. and in the off-hand is my second khopesh that is nearly complete which will be the same as the first except it will have the +4 Insight Bonus to AC putting my ranger in the mid-50s for AC. I'll make the same combo on my Elf ranger but in rapiers instead. Once mineral IIs are made then I'll start making lightening IIs for them both. I have many shroud raids ahead of me.

A rapier using barbarian...does he wear a tu-tu also?
:D

He may wear a tu-tu, but while dancing about in it, he's prolly critting on a 2+roll.

You won't know cause you'll be dead. :) Don't want to hijack the thread, but what else would a drow barb wield?

[Ninety]

**** kids, don't get all upset that your 50-60 AC person isn't that important or self preserving.

Kadish :P we are in the same guild together, I know your 70+ AC is great, but if your build can't get 70+... then it's pretty pointless.

rpasell: that's fine, I only have capped characters for the most part that pretty much just run raids, if you cleric doesn't cast mass cure, then I wouldn't wanna run with ya anyway.
