I want a dwarf with a 2h but slayers are better with dual wield after T1 it seems. Is damage specced 2h IB any good?

yes 2h specd ib is pretty strong and fun, with dots that crit, lots of self buffs and durable as far as 2h tanks go b/c your an ib so your natually tanky, and you get grumble n mutter if you know what your doing you can take on 2-3 people in a row

and you still have access to all your buffs so you can still be useful in parties

Had the same dilemma throughout all the years playing on live servers. Ended up having both but slayer was rr70+ and IB only got to rr55+.

To keep it short: as an IB you'll be able to drop squishies pretty fast but don't even dream about about getting close to slayer DPS output. You'll shine at supporting a slayer with guard, armor debuff and oathfriend buffs though — that combo is really strong

Click here to watch on YouTube

its a matter of knowing your class, and picking your battles

the guy in this video was guy was RR58; an he is using Invader/Sentinel gear killing higher lvl rr players

sure you cant do slayer dps but your much more durable than slayer and still put out good dmg for a tank
