    Default Dominator with rapiers vs handwraps?

    Posted this in the Prodigy thread but it got lost so here it is again...

    What are the thoughts of the 12/7/1 Rng/Rog/Mnk build using rapiers and shortswords instead of handwraps? I know the dps would likely suffer in comparison to the Prodigy but I am disinclined to throw away all the greensteel weapons i have made for my exploiter. Will the sneak attack damage you gain from 6 more levels of rogue justify the change from exploiter to this class breakdown? I have my own opinions but interested in other's thoughts on that specific point before I TR again.

    *edit* A few other points that may influence. 34 pt build. Strength based. Pretty solidly decked out in high end raid gear.

    rapiers and shortswords are far superior to 1d6 damage and puny 1d6 elemental attacks every 5 or so hits with handwraps and 1 level of monk.

    Also, Dominator build uses fighter levels, not ranger levels. Kensai vs tempest. Everything else is the same.

    Don't matter, rapiers are far better weapons.
