At what lvl/point in the game needs to be considered. I'd think Sonnet would be the best, if you have reached Bluerock.

What about Bluesteel Poisonous Dagger? Has a greater speed and critical chance. Gives me +3.6 DPS vs Sonnet.
Btw ... when do you think it's best to use Sonnet and when the dagger?

Great game!!!

Well elemental damage differs depending on the opponent... so does armor... so honestly the best weapon depends on who you are fighting... just watch your damage, if you aren't doing very much with one, have another in a quick slot to swap and see how you are doing with it... trial and error and everyone's play style differs.... Mine is a tanky archer drinking restos when I get low... I get the most damage overall that way even with the fumbles... and with stun and knockback immunities I can stay on top of them... now when the fumble chances reduce with items and skills... :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I just hope David does not put them in the same slots since that would reduce the effect I am hoping for...

I don't know of any monster that resists spirit damage. That may be its biggest power.

Once I got Sonnet Griss became a beast. She could solo the level 14 decursion knight guy at level 11.

I remember something only took 4 damage against Sonnet but it could of been something way higher level than Griss. Maybe the Hill Giants?

Hill giants resist Spirit (Stun duration&Spirit damage)
I mean, they will resist which level we are at

Depends on your build really. But assuming you are level 15+ with high focus on agility, some strength + all fighter's guild advanced skills maxed out any 13speed 7%crit weapon beats Sonnet.
So for rogues the Bluesteel Poisonous dagger is best, Cleric and Warrior have to make due with a normal Bluesteel Dagger at the moment.
Higher speed and 3% more crit makes all the difference as it increases the likelyhood of instant kills with from massive criticals aswell as the overall damage on enemies immune to instant kills just from much better armor mitigation on crit.
Also Duel ramps up faster and you maximize the effectiveness of 15 extra damage from Heavyhand and Duel.

For rogues without fighter's guild access the crit bonus and dps on Bluesteel dagger still beats Sonnet on most fights - I'd say Sonnet becomes better on heavily armoured undead enemies though.

Best light weapon for trolls depends on your level. With very high stats the fire dagger can actually beat magma shortsword, especially on warrior. Massive criticals instant kills on cleave attacks are just too good =)
