51/13/2 vs 44/22

[dday]

I’m curious to what people prefer or think does better dps in general in ID. Right now I prefer 44/22 I have mostly ID gear with two crafted ID axes, full axe and 2h PA. I’m about to get pvp rank 50 2h axe(currently have hk axe) which is the best option for me due to PA levels. I like paragon better for first 5 bosses since its all single target with a lot of disconnects. My max dps is right around 4200 on maklamos (right around 4k for rusilla and ituzial). Does anyone use both specs with similar gear and have any conclusions to which one preforms better. Obviously I know any fights that require aoe 2h will out preform but I keep hearing from other warriors that 2h will out preform in st fights as well. Any info is appreciated

forgot to mention i currently use 51/9/6 for aoe. I like it better and get better numbers with my gear level then 51/13/2 for aoe/trash fights.

51/10/5 on trash is win

I run 38p currently with 57k pa, dual avenger rank 50 swords. Pull 3.8k rusilla, 3.8-4.1k iztuiel (pingpong), 3-3.1k conclave (incl all phases). All the dps calcs say 44p SB rotation would be hundreds more dps for me... I really want to find the time to try it out.

44dw is much higher for me. I dislike icy burst with a passion too so I prefer 44. its also y I never use 13 2 because I don't like rb finishers

Around 4600 on Maklamos last night in 44/22, doing 4500-4600 on Ituziel in the same spec.

44/22 DW is much higher DPS for me than 13/2 with BM Crystal.

Is 44 > 38 for you intrinsic?

[Pines]

I switched from 38 to 44 after using 38 for the first 6 weeks+ in ID.

Just my 2 cents.

Hopefully I'll be able to answer that more directly after I get a good parked Ituziel in 38paragon tonight to compare with my parked 44para parse.

Nice, you have much better gear then me so im thinking i'm right on target with my current gear level. How about the other boss fights besides the first 5? do you use paragon at all for those?

Its more of a play Style issue. If you prefer DW you will probally be better at it and with equal weapons the specs are practically the same. Personally i prefer 2hand specs, And i was pulling the same numbrs with Kraken Spine as other warriors were with dw crafted id axes.

But the 44 version of DW does out do 38 by alot especially at is level. RH is your friend.
