I just bought a Flourish in the AH with a Damage Bonus vs Beast: High, and I'm wondering what I should upgrade it into?
My 3 choices at the minute are:
> Final Flourish,
> Furious Flamberge (Fair chance of causing moderate Fire),
> Fearless Rigadoon (Slight chance of causing moderate Stun).
I'm planning on doing the Rabid Snarbolax Shadow Lair, so preferences would go mainly towards this.
Any information & help will be greatly appreciated, thanks! :)
I'll be more affirmative than Bopp in his guide : take Final Flourish. The chances of status are not worth it considering piercing swords kill things so quickly (even in Shadow Lair).
I agree with Fradow, Final Flourish kills Fiends and Beasts (and Gremlins and Undeads although I do have the tendency to miss hits on Kats even with auto target, don't know why) too fast for the fair chance of status to be inflicted. I have Final Flourish and it works great.
Final Flourish all the way. The other two aren't worth the decreased damage.
Thanks very much everyone, and I've started taking it down the FF route. LOVING IT so far! Two more upgrades to go! ^_^
This is a frequently asked question. My answer can be found in the "Piercing swords" section of my sword guide. (Although, if I'm being honest, I've used only BTB and Final Flourish, not the other two.)
