for the shroud boss monster, which weapon?

[Bolo_Grubb]

I currently have the following

a triple positive gs khopesh holy/good burst/good blast
a tier 2 positive gs khopesh holy/good burst
a +4 silver khopesh of pg
a +4 metalline khopesh of pg

I am a twf. which 2 of these would give me best dps? Does the difficulty level make any difference?

Thank you

Arraetrikos has DR which is only negated by silver+good combined.

On higher difficulties the level of DR ramps up. I'm not sure of the exact amounts since I mostly play casters, but I remember reading it was around 15 on normal and 60 on elite.

Use the +4 silver of pg and +4 mopg on hard and elite for sure.

I'm not certain about normal, but a greensteel khopesh only goes up to 1d10 base damage against 1d8 so without doing any math it looks like dealing a guaranteed 15 more physical damage each hit is superior to d2 more base + 1 more enhancement + d6 good (holy vs pure good) + the burst and blast

How did you make a triple positive without knowing which weapon works best?

For a lvl 20 ranger (not exactly a tempest build), how about a +5 Metalline of PG w/ silver arrows and the +1 per hit force damage enhancement? I always get orange numbers and yes, I wait for the melee to establish aggro and surround him before I start firing.....

Why are you using a Metalline bow? Find a Holy bow(The Silver Bow is a good choice that's easy to find) and use silver arrows against him. If you can get a Holy of PG, Evil Outsider Bane, or some other damaging effect(Best would be a Triple Positive Longbow), that would be even better. Metalline generally isn't worth it on a ranged weapon(Except possibly returners), since you can change the material type just by switching ammo.
