So i was away fro few years and now that i started playing again , was thinking to build up some strength and HP , since at level 58 Laser Pistoleer , the skilling is pretty slow for the mobs i usualy hunt.

I tried entropedia and it says that Archon Sword ( that i consider buying ) cannot be used with Melee Amps . :scratch2:

Is that true? Any owner could plz confirm this?

Ty in advance :tiphat:

afaik, no NI Greece item can be amped

I can confirm, and in the case of Archon..the eco boost would be to big so its likely a balancing thing.
 
With an eco of 2.989 without amp its still a good choice =)

:twocents:
 
Be a man and skill maces :) Mace MKIII and higher you can amp any melee amp you'd like. Mace mkII amps up to VIII amp and mace mkI amps up to VI amp.

PS: I too am level 57 pistol and switched to melee.. and I am very very happy with my decision.
 
If you want to use amps i can suggest the arkadian blades. Afaik they all can take amps. The drawback is the low TT so i suggest to have a portable rep terminal on you or carry more blades.
The cyrene blades are also quite good and cheap to get.

I am searching for some blade around 30ish dps, so when i put a melee amp get that 40+dps for average 100-200 hp mobs.

Archon has a great eco and wouldn't like to drop under 2.93. Any suggestions in specific ?

Thanks :D
 
How about these:

Longblades:

NameAmplifier nameDecayAmmoCostDmg/PECDamageMax.DamageEff.DamageMin.DamageRangeAttacksDmg/sec
Lokabhu Electrifier SwordMelee Trauma Amplifier IV15.081015.0812.94964.0064.0044.4832.006.051.037.81

MAKO FAL-5 SmugglerMelee Trauma Amplifier IV20.886020.8862.92888.0088.0061.1644.005.548.048.93

Ozpyn RLB S1X2Melee Trauma Amplifier IV25.194025.1942.924106.00106.0073.6753.005.033.040.52
note: MTA VI 2.937 dpp @ 43.58 dps

I checked most against MTAIV, but depending on base damage buying MTAVI instead makes more sense

Shortblades:
Aakas Fire DaggerMelee Trauma Amplifier IV16.483016.4832.95270.0070.0048.6535.004.063.051.08

Leoi Shock DaggerMelee Trauma Amplifier IV13.856013.8562.93458.5058.5040.6629.254.061.041.34
note: lose 0.5dmg because overamping, but still seems the MTAIV the best choice

Ozpyn RSB S1X2Melee Trauma Amplifier VI20.209020.2092.95886.0086.0059.7743.005.044.043.83

My personal favorite at the moment is the Ozpyn Shortblade. It was cheap can take amps up to MTA VI, has decent eco and dps i fit the lvl reqs and has a decent TT for decent sized runs.

Of course you can check out yourself with the weapon compare tool:

Very useful thoughts there, i am thinking to keep Archon till it gets to T3 and cehck again . For now mobs with 200-400 HP are going down nicely , but with MAVI droping in price i start feeling like going for a bigger DPS, even if is SB
