Swordsmith or MacesmithFollow

#1 Mar 24 2007 at 8:34 PM Rating: Decent
I'm a 45 holy paladin at the moment, currently I'm a 265 weaponsmith and can't decide on whether to go swordsmith or macesmith. Any ideas on what to go?

The popular choice seems to be mace for thunder/deep thunder

Thunder have 3.80 speed and Lionheart have 3.60, only 0.20 is not a big diference, too small dmg. Thunder have a chance to stun and it's very good for JoC. Lionheart have a +100 strenght chance and this is very good too.

Get what you like more.

So of the top 3 weaponsmithing weapons (Bloodmoon, Stormherald, and Lionheart Executioner) you guys are saying that it doesnt really matter which route you go? I'm currently and Axesmith 300/375 but was thinking of going Hammersmith... do any of these help you more in the end-game raids than the others? Also, should the one you pic be based on your talent build?

Im going hammersmith myself.

Having a big 2 handed hammer that gives +str,+agil and +stam on a weapon thats 3.8 speed and has a 4 second stun proc just apeals to me for some reason...

i would say macesmith because then when you hit level 60 you can get Sulfuras,Hand of Ragnaros alot easier.

NEOzen,

The 3 kind of weapon are great.
The stun efect of Thunder/Deep Thunder/Stormherald don't will help very much in end-game cause a lot of elites and all boses are imune to stun efects. Is more usefull in PvP.

But to me, lionheart have a better look. (and have a chance to get more 100 strenght for 10 sec.)

Stendarr,

The Hand of Ragnaros is a quested crafting item from doing lots, and lots, and lots of MC runs, which no one does anymore

What? Sword and Board paladins get no love? Why haven't any of the 1handers been talked about?

BlazeFury?
DragonStrike?
Wicked Edge of the Plains?

I myself am between sword and hammer, the swords give some decent stats which i'm normally a little deficient in (agi) but Dragonstrikes, chance at +200 haste rating stacking with reckoning makes me drools a bit.

Lol... sorry for not mentioning the one-handers. I'm Ret specced so I was just asking about the 2-handers.

Good point! Ok so Hammersmith for 2-handers is out for me... but why Lionheart over Bloodmoon? I'm liking the +crit from the axe.
