    Default Best Weapons for: Constructs

    What weapon do you think is the best weapon for constructs? In-other-words, what is the best weapon to carry arround for fighting against Constructs?

    I'm looking for a Prefix Name, Metal, Weapon Type and a Suffix Name.

    For example...Thundering Adamantine Heavy Mace of Greater Construct Bane.

    Try to provide some sort of reasoning to why you think your chosen weapon is the BEST.

    Thanks for your help.

    choose your favorite weapon and go transmuting of greater construct bane for names and a smiter for anything smitable (rapier is best for smiting)

    I was thinking a True Chaos Adamantine Heavy Mace of Greater Construct Bane.

    True Chaos: a good splash dmg that most constructs aren't immune to

    Adamantine: most constructs DR include DR/Adamantine

    Heavy Mace: just thought that some might have a DR/Blunt

    Greater Construct Bane: is there any Suffix better?

    Adamantine Anarchic x of Greater Construct Bane.
    Anarchic does more damage. Maul is a completely reasonable substitute.
    Addy for DR purposes.

    Not sure I follow, constructs are immune to critical hits, so using a rapier does not work any better than say, a cheese grater. Also, I believe that you have to score a "NAT 20" not just a critical.

    I prefer to use a combo of a smiter and a curse spewer. On higher CR constructs, the saves are off the charts so anything I can get into there is best.

    Constructs are immune to critical hits, but, with a rapier (IC:Pierce assumed), rolling a 15-20 will still get off the smiting effect.

    smiting is based on crit, so a rapier is the best option, as constructs are simply immune to crit damage not crit effects

    Anarchic Burst is even better! (It really works on the shroud portals at least)

    Alright, now we're at a (believe the highest we're getting here is a) +3 Addy Anarchic Burst Maul of Greater Construct Bane, RR:Halfling.
    Because everything is RR:Halfling or Warforged.

    If you're going for pure damage from a single weapon and you want blunt, you'd be better off with a maul than a heavy mace I think.

    So a +3 Anarchic Burst Adamantine (choose your weapon type) of Greater Construct Bane RR: (choose)...is the best Construct DPS weapon out on the market?
