Honor >
Yeah, Honor is good once I look beyond the Level 25 and below Swords.
I ended up making Honor in a Zweihander at Level 27, and it was a small upgrade over the King's Grace that I'd primarily been using.
I kept testing out the other Unique Swords as the became available, but it wasn't until Level 36 that I found something better than Honor, and it was a bit of a surprise. Heart Carver. The raw damage for 1 handed was slightly better, but then it had more Deadly Strike as well.
I used that for a few levels, then felt that Headstriker was a bit of an upgrade, so used that for two more levels, before I made Unbending Will in a 13% ED Dimensional Blade at Level 41.
That's basically where I'm at now. I did think about making Hustle to see how that compares, but don't think I have a good 3os base. I'm thinking I might put Hustle in a Merc Weapon instead, maybe even a Lance, which is very slow, but between the Runeword IAS, Fanaticism, Treachery, and a 15% IAS Jewel in VGaze, the attack speed will actually be the 2nd fastest breakpoint.
The whole melee builds suck thing isn't really applying so far. Yeah, I'm twinked, but not with any rare gear, and so far Players 8 all the way has been a breeze. I'm sure that will change in Hell though....
