On a questions about Whirlwind of Steel

Daevryn answered in a way that make it seem maledicts do work on mobs. Although mobs likely have higher stats than a player character of the same race would have.

At high levels you probably should assume mobs have more like 25 dex (or overmax to about that point depending on how you want to look at it.)

So really your question is more: is 23 dex vs. 19 dex enough to justify taking this legacy? I'd say no. There's probably about 20 legacies that would do more for you."

In light of that, I agree with dagger over spear if someone is going with sword for tanking anyway.

For PVE, debating whether to go swords/spear for bleed or swords/flail for control (eye jab, choke, pull). Thoughts? Assume high str race. (n/t)

Any spec is fine for PvE. You can play all kinds of wacky shit and you'll still be able to kill mobs. (n/t)

Eyejab combined with good regen is very powerful.

For me in area explore situations, landslide was pretty helpful.

For PVE sword, go axe spec for disembowl

If you want to regen faster than a mob take whispers, it's great

It depends on what you considering PvE
