I was wondering what some veteran infs think is more effective due to the DW change and the 50 thrust ability being 5 seconds.

I found this spec :
saracen

35 Stealth
39 Critical Strike
1 Slash
50 Thrust
27 Dual Wield
35 Envenom

Would it be more effective to lower thrust to put into dw/cs?

Also, does more duel wield give you haste or quicker attack rate?

I have also been considering:

35 Stealth
39 Critical Strike
1 Slash
44 Thrust
36 Dual Wield
35 Envenom

thoughts?

afaik what DW do is increase the % of hits with offhand, and the styles ofc

rr5

35 stealth
35 poison
36 weapon (imho better thrust)
50 cs
leftover points into dw

My problem with bringing CS up so high is that I feel its REALLY hard to land a 4 skill chain on someone in PVP..

To land=

hamstring > leaper > rib seperation > ripper ... would be a near miracle with all the strafing and movement going on in PVP..

I was considering going:

35stealth/envenom
33dw
50 thrust
34 CS

Yeh I know 50 thrust is crap but a 2 skill chain much more likely to be landed then a 3/4 skill chain not to mention more armor penetration/weapon skill

defense penetration does not work on uthgard -> you will evade cleric as much as warrior

Good point about the def penetration not working.. so does that mean the rr5 ability Overwhelm (a 15% increased chance to bypass their target’s block, parry, and evade defenses for 30 seconds.) is useless for inf on this server?

This ability doesn't exist on Uthgard. It has been introduced way after the 1.69 version which is the target version of Uthgard, even after 1.80 (some 1.69-1.80 changes have been added on Uthgard in the past).
