    Default Battle Cleric weapon selection..

    Ive got a battle cleric (see Sirgog) at 16th lvl and am starting to hunt around for a decent golfbag selection of endgame beaters. Not too sure how everything plays out tho, so asking some advice here. Obviously a minII shall be crafted, but at the moment Im working on some goggles.

    What I got: A collection of dwarf axes:

    +3 vorpal (wondering if righteous would help it land crits more often??)
    +5 greater elemental bane
    +4 holy of righteous (gets me decent DPS on evil mobs, best DPS ive pulled so far)
    +3 ghost touch of greater undead bane (bye bye ghosts and zombie)

    and a +5 adamantium heavy mace, for clay golem smackdown..

    Looking at this point into greataxes, but the AH is thin ever so thin, and I dont seem to ever pull them for some reason. =(

    So what are some good things to look out for, how do the diff effects work on bosses/reds/oranges/etc. ? Obviously I want some holyburst silver of greater evil outsider bane.. but besides the obvious?

    Thanks for the input.

    Default

    I'm a cleric-cleric, so I only do battle when battle's the best bet, and for that I go with the save-or-die weps (vorp, disrupt, banish, smite...) since I can hit, but my low DPS is more like DPM or DPH. The s-or-d weps make my day to day combat a lot less embarrassing.

    I realize these won't help much with red names, and for that I think you're on the right track. So if you can do actual DPS, I'd add that a Holy of PG is always a winner, and transmuters are great all-purpose "when in doubt" weps. Gtr construct bane will make you feel good about pitching in for portal beating.

    Heads-up on that vorp righteous/crit question though; They vorp on natural 20s, not on all crits. If your to-hit is at all iffy, then a higher 'plus' or anything that helps confirm the vorpal threat roll, will help make sure those 20s count every time.
