*I tried searching and could not find anything*

Based on attack power and bonuses associated with each class, what is "the best"? Let's assume they both would have cleric subclass.

Please EXPLAIN your choice as well.

I would like YOUR opinion (not "whatever you like best").

Please no flames. Thanks

*This is to prevent future threads concerning this same subject*

it depends on your taste. Do you like tanking and being able to stay alive? Or do you want to trade in survivability for massive damage?

If you want to stay alive longer but hit lower, then go dual axe (although I recommand that if you go warrior, you should go 2hand because the 2hand hits very high as well)

if you want to hit harder but die easily, go rogue

depends entirely upon what you want out of your character.

axes are better in party play.. daggers are pretty good in 1v1

Personally I think both are fail. . with just daggers its going to be hard to level solo or party (well here you could cleric I suppose)
and you don't have KD from xbow, so 1v1 pvp is going to be really kill them before they kill you like a wizard..

axes are pretty good in party play but solo they really can't dish out enough damage to kill your opponent. I think it would be nearly impossible to kill a pure str bower at cap with just axes, but I could be wrong..

My main point being that fast weapon switching and using all weapons in a tree to the best of your ability will give you a very good edge over someone with just one weapon (ie most chinese builds)

lots of hits=lots of crits+gain zerk fast
so it would be possible
and you have bleed and stun

I recommend you go rogue. I have a dagger rogue and can 1 hit anything my lvl with prick and dagger desperate. It's alot of fun, even though you sacrifice alot of defense you can use your cleric buffs to make up for that. I can take giants my lvl if I use bless spell and recovery division - and of course dagger desperate.
At 55 I hit almost 6k to penons. I usually grind at yetis though =] Great exp. And easy exp. So there, that's my opinion.

Yeah, lol. I can almost 1 hit any build my lvl. - If I crit. I crit 20k in zerk at penons I'll try to get a screenie lol

Double Post >"<

Axes there damage suck but they are good for stun here u need to get 2handed skill others u wil suck.
Rogue dammage rock but they defense suck :p

ATTENTION : You DON'T HAVE TO train with Desperate dagger (DD) on

you can do a decent damage (better than the dual axe) w/o DD & still give curses to your target (bleed,dull & stun)

Why does every one think that rogues HAVE TO use extreme or desperate all the time !!!

just to let you know guys Desperate or extreme turns the rogue to a wizard (defense wise) with out the ridiculous continuous damage the wizard has .
