Weapon spec theorycraft time!

[Otzo]

since Season 2 is coming, i unavaiable to upgrade my Mooncleaver into an Bloodmoon, i started debating about weapons and weapon specs since resillience keeps growing higher and higher:

Axe: 5% more crit always, its a good burst but in season two pretty much every single crit i do loses 20% of its damage but is that not too bad or? :-/

Sword: well with a shaman sword spec + windfury can be nice burst but so is axe + windfury already and so on. :-/ i've always digged swords but best spec matters always, having alot less crit kinda blows but with sword spec being yellow damage its kinda nice.

Mace: i have _never_ been maces but the stun must be a nice extra pummel, but what about the dimishing returns? since fights get longer and longer.

diminishing returns reset every 20 seconds or sth, so that shouldnt be your problem. The Big Question is, will the Arena2 Weaps be better than the tier 3 craft weapons. Thats what i hope, because if not i gonna respecc to mace and buy me the thunder tier 3 upgrade, because 13% + stun is really sick.
If not my favorite will still be Axe, because its not just the 5% chance from the other weapons, your whole crit chance increases, actually ive got 40% with mongoose up, thats still 33% (theoretically every third hit) with 300 resilience and iam fine with my burst and overall dmg.

I am currently using the BS axe, but I think Ill switch to gladiator sword and the T2 chest when arena season 2 starts... good idea?

nerf this french keyboard layout!

Sword spec proc burst might be nice for long fights, but im still debating it vs. Mace. =/
