    [​IMG] Sort of having a toss-up between what weapon I should choose for my assassin. Choices are either: Angurvadal +5 or Spectral Brand +5. (Or maybe something else? [has to be backstab-able])
    I have Kiel's Buckler and the Sling of Everard also reserved. (Possible better ch

    They're both good -- Angurvadal give a 22 strength (which is not counted in the multiplier). It's a great off-hand weapon.

    Spectral Brand with it's armor piercing strike (+10 to hit), when combined with improved haste and assassinate is definitely the way to go.

    Other good options are the Staff of the Ram, Celestial Fury, Hindo's Doom, and Blackrazor.

    Wow ... I LOVE those two weapons!

    If you're not dual-wielding, take Spectral, purely because of the armour piercing strike, and a bit of extra cold damage. Angurvadal is still a very good weapon anyway, and for an assassin to wield either is great!
