Was wondering if this sword Emil's Brand was viable for ret pala's? Instead of the BoA axe
Oh cool, might look into thatAs Weiss said it does less burst however you can have other players put frost oil on it via trade, which works as a slow somthing pallies lack.
It's definitely comparable to the heirloom 2hs, but the axe still pulls ahead. Going from Brand to loom axe/sword will not be a huge jump in damage, but the fast weapon speed of the Brand makes it slightly worse for damage output (with Wrath mechanics, the Brand would probably be better, but no longer).
I would say Emil's Brand = Reforged Truesilver Champion < Bloodied Arcanite Reaper.
