[IB] SnB Weapon and Shield - which is best?

[Paxsanarion]

Hi everyone! Just a quick question - I am beginning to work on Epic Quests and I was wondering for a SnB IB running deftard either tri spec or middle and right tree grumble and mutter spec with full ruin gear which weapon and shield would you recommend? Thank you for your time!

Go for all three, complete them all but last step and compare rewards. Of shields I chose Grudge, other two were not too appealing. For 1h weps I can't recall. 2h weapons are more interesting. I remember taking Earthsplitter or something similar - very good weapon proc for such a low level weapon.

All 3 chains are soloable but will take some time esp if doing them for the first time. Spec Mutter and whatever to refill health.

Base the decision on how they look as you will replace them (statwise ) fast.

Can you preview items before choosing them?

Not really, but you can search forum for pics or ask ingame to check them out. A tip is to not miss the t3 epic quests. Some really good looking weapons there for several classes. I use the t3 skins on BO, SM and Chosen.

Thank you all.......for the appearance of dwarf weapons I have found this useful......sometimes the icons in the quest reward window do not look like the item but if you compare the names to the weapons or shields in this list they match appearance wise

For the most part that is accurate, when it come to set armor, a lot for whatever reason the appearances were changed on all of them a year ago, I assume to piss everyone off, and as a gold sink/time sink, trying to find the old armor appearance you had, as well as redying everything etc, Fashionhammer is serious business.

As others have said do all three of the t4 Epic quests up to the very last step which is chosing a reward so you can compare between them. The 2H axe Earthsplit from Elf is nice , then select a 1h, and shield from the other two.

Someone made a tool that allows you to preview all of the epic quest weapon appearances. It’s on the forums somewhere. I’ll see if I can find it.
