Technically "Crafting" ToEE Weapon Question

[Gljosh]

So I have a Heroic Fire Q-Staff completed, but I really want to make an Acid Q-Staff.

Would a Fire Q-Staff work fairly well in mid-heroics?

Or should I keep grinding for an Acid Q-Staff?

The "do what you want/is fun" is a horrible answer to SPECIFIC questions.

I'm not familiar with ToEE staffs, but my friend used a fire one up to epic (and then some). I'd say it depends on what quests you use to level. Are you planning on running a lot of shavarath or um....well, stuff immune to fire and you can't strip that?

Upcoming nerfs on meteor swarm too, is this for an alch/sorc and can you be done with his life by the time it hits live lol?

I am a serial TR'r so the exact class does not matter so much. I switched over the Q-Staffs because all classes can use them.

So it seems like the main concern is immunity...and quite a few enemies are immune/healed by Fire.

I will keep trucking towards an acid Q-staff, its pretty easy running Heroic Elite on a lv 30 Warlock.

Thank you for your guidance.

you mean as a caster stick or melee?

I use an AoE ice dagger for melees in the offhand since ice is a will save which seems to be harder to resist. Plus, in TWF, attacks like the AoE happen to proc on the mainhand as well. So it procs more often as a result and makes it somewhat worthwhile. Otherwise, the damage is too little to really make sense to use it alone like a melee qstaff would offer as compared to, say, the elemental bloom from the same quests.

I use it basically from levels 7-11
