Dual-wield, what kind of weapons?
Hello,
Just started playing Titan Quest again (only played it thru once at release), and started up a Harbinger.. however.. im confused about what weapons to use when dualwielding.. I've read a bunch of posts here on the forum, some saying fast weapons, some saying slow weapons, some 1 fast 1 slow and all weird kinds of combinations.. So i created this post just for this specific questions, what kind of weapons should i use when dual-wielding? Thanks

Re: Dual-wield, what kind of weapons?
It's really up to your choice & preference.Just look at your DPS & Attack Speed.If your Attack Speed is on Maximum 199 for DW and you are using fast weapons try to switch to slower & high damage weapon.It's just a matter of balancing & experimenting which are more effective weapons for your Harbinger.

^^ what he said
also, Since you're holding two weapons you should experiment with some elemental damage. Say one weapon will do fire damage and another ice. Assuming some monsters are more resistant to certain elements than others, having two different types of elemental damage can give you good advantages against normal monsters and bosses etc. Nigel-

Re: Dual-wield, what kind of weapons?
Just forget elemental damage with Harbinger. You get next to no boost for that.
I'd try to use as slow weapons as possible (more base damage) while still having 160+ attack speed.

Re: Dual-wield, what kind of weapons?
As Poinas said, great combo is hard hitting mace and fast sword. Legendary mace and saber tooth is nice, again as Poinas said if you have you attack speed up independent of weapons, then Sapros and Thorny mual together are brutal.

Re: Dual-wield, what kind of weapons?
Not much point, except with Sapros, since it dramatically lowers monster's piercing resistance.

Re: Dual-wield, what kind of weapons?
Well just an example the idea is to have attack speed maxed so that you can use hard hitting clubs to the greatest effect, Sapros plus any one of the others.

Re: Dual-wield, what kind of weapons?
Yeah but the Piercing damage would be vastly increased which is better than normal damage thus causing more damage
I think thta's what he is getting at
