Quick one: Lorgar's Mighty Two Hander vs. Duel Wielding

[Welcheren 3]

Hi

 

I have been lurking in some of these forums without actually joining for while. So I am still somewhat new.

I would REALLY appreciate views/thoughts on this matter:

I am still playing Sacred 1 (the Gold edition with Underworld). I have more or less followed Rooster's Gladiator guide - which implies using Duel Wielding with no other weapons mastery. But now I have picked up Logar's Mighty Hander in Platinum (my Glad is level 107).

Even without Sword Lore my attack% and damage is MUCH higher for Lorgar's Two Hander than any Duel Wielding configuration that I can manage. I simply cannot find weapons to Duel Wield that provide a higher attack% along with decent damange. So my question is: did I make a huge mistake by not taking Sword Lore. More specifically, would my Glad have been significantly more effective with Sword Lore.

In Duel Wield, I put out 118 200 damage at 3500 attack. But Lorgar gives me 164 000 damage at 3700 attack.

I would really appreciate feedback on whether Sword Lore would have made a huge difference.

 

Thanks

wasn't dual wield buggy in Sacred1, was it?

something like, you don't get double damage from the second weapon and the bonus won't work?

Perhaps I should add that I have 65 points in Duel Wield (none of my equipment boosts it). Agility is at 45, but boosted to 87 by equipment.

Maybe. I have searched previous forums to glean some clarity, but with no luck.

 

I am loathe to restart a Glad just now just to replace DW with Sworld Lore if it is not going to make a major difference.

There is a character editor for Sacred 1 on Sacred Nexus. If you want to swap out the skills and continue you may be able to do so.

Wow.

Thanks Flix. If this works I will be VERY happy indeed. I'll exchange Duel Wielding for Sword Lore as soon as I get the chance (presently at work).

 

 

Really hope it works.

If Sacred Hero Editor 7 is the correct mod, I'll download it at home later today and give it a go.

It worked.

 

Thanks a million Flix!

I have successfully swapped Duel Wielding for Sword Lore. Now Lorgor's Two Hander really swipes everything away.

Really thanks.
