Combat Maces? Not popular or not viable?

Post by Maelwys

Last I heard, Sword Specialization has a 6 second internal cooldown. Doesn't that make the weapon choice unpopular or ineffective? It would seem (to me) that Maces would be a superior choice in terms of Combat DPS.

15% ignore armor is not a great bonus in dps. especially for rogues.

this is why maces suck.

in terms of itemizaton maces often have perfect stats for rogues, since there are plenty of maces slower than the average sword, and with a higher max damage. for the offhand, we could go with dual spec (fast sword) or go with a fast mace.

imho also maces have cool graphics :P but this doesn't count^^

if blizz wants to make mace spec viable, needs to change that talent (ap? haste? many ideas)

Maces provides nothing for your poison dmg, which is playing a larger role for our DPS now. Both Sword and CCQ specialization do boost poison dmg. Sure Mace specc does increase our direct and white dmg. But is that equal to the extra psn- and combat potency proccs from sword or the extra psn dmg- and combo points provided with CCQ?
