Merton's firepoker deserves an honorable early game mention. It's not great and you'll outgrow it quickly, though it isn't half bad. Also Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you as well! I didn't mention it because Its an early game weapon so I didn't even think about it. But totally agree with you. Its my favorite early game weapon tbh.
When i first tried hardcore mode in outward. The skycrown mace as well as wind infuse just yeeted to big enemies with ease. The skycrown is just the best vanilla-outward weapon.
It has a ridiculous amount of impact for how fast it swings. And its only downside is its length which doesn't even matter once you learn how to use it properly.
This is one of the Top 5 Top 5 videos. Point of fact about the marble morningstar, it is one of the few main-hand weapons that can easily inflict confusion. This makes it valuable for dagger builds which want to inflict pain and confusion to get that huge damage multiplier, without fiddling with weapon slots in the heat of battle. Maelstrom Blade is better for this but it's an endgame craftable so it won't be available for most of the game. Edit: also Mace Infusion will imbue your dagger as well.
Something I only realized after recording the footage is that the marble Morningstar is also much longer than Skycrown mace. There were several situations in the footage where I could easily hit and enemy after staggering them backward with the Morningstar. however, Skycrown is just short enough that it often hits enemies out of your range when it staggers. So the Morningstar is kind for that impact damage even though Skycrown looks better on paper. Kind of cool.
Great vid, as always. I enjoy these top 5's. You mentioned the tsar mace for a physical build combined with a fechtbuch-enchanted lexicon (too bad you did not try to pronounce 'fechtbuch'), I find the tsar axe works better for this, since the damage bonus from the kill streak buff (scalp collector skill from weapon master in New Sirocco) is greater than the difference between the damage stats of the two weapons.
Ah true I didn't even think of that one. I personally don't really like the tsar axe or the scalp collector skill lol. Which is unfortunate because with what you are saying it could be really strong. I just never got into a grove with either. Might need to revisit them.
It's a very fun element. Lots of the most powerful artifacts deal cold damage such as the frozen chakram. There just aren't nearly as many of them as there are decay or fire.
I have refrained from putting these on any of my top 5s because weapon types in general deserve their own top 5 sort of. The enchantment is always good regardless of anything so its a bit harder to place it on a ranking scale. That being said, they are always a great option. Probably better than some uniques.
I don't like decay damage weapons, because of corruption enemies to be often enemies and strongest ones. Until caldera though. For same reason, one of first good weapons I craft gold lich ones. :)
Lightning and ethereal have a significant power boost in Outward compared to the others. Lighting has the one weakness of the spire of light, but that really is about it. Most things take good lightning damage especially in Caldera. Ethereal trashes always except for the ancient dweller which is weak to lighting. Honestly carrying a lightning and ethereal weapon around make the game easy. Lots of enemies are very resistant to decay although humans die to it instantly which is funny. And then cold is the odd man out being good but harder to buff and nothing being particularly weak or strong to it other than Wendigos. So long story short... decay is the easiest to buff but harder to use.
@SheenShots that makes the rune mages one of strongest. Lighting distant spell and close range pure ethereal weapons. I almost always enchant my weapons for raw damage. 😀
By the time you get the scepter, you most probably have gone through spire of light. Unique/arena bosses that use lightning are a whole other story though.
I’m using Mace of seasons with hexmage/totem and blood infuse. Blood infuse is very late game and overkill but not necessary. What are your thoughts on elemental weakness with totem/hexmage and possibly cabal hermit? Blood sigil might also be something to consider.

Also
Merry Christmas!
going to write that, add the fact its a easy early elemental weapon to get and you are set to try getting some advanced gear.

Finally, the top 5 vid of my favorite weapon type.
Heck ya. Been saving this one for a while!

Marble morningstar with weightless enchantment is so good! Happy holidays!
Its one of my favorite weapons! Hope you had a good Christmas!
Awesome vid again thx for existing man
You bet! Thank you!
The scepter of the cruel priest can almost get 200 decay dmg when properly buffed
If you push it, you may reach over 300 decay damage (reached around 320 myself)
And it's just a fun side quest to make.
Its absolutely nuts how much damage this weapon can do. Very fun when maxing out decay!
Great vid, as always. I enjoy these top 5's.

Isn't scalp collector an "Axe only" weapon skill?
@@nintendoman12111 It is. Try reading my previous comment again.
@@shakzor Ah.
Oops. Sorry about that.
@@nintendoman12111 No worries.
Ah true I didn't even think of that one. I personally don't really like the tsar axe or the scalp collector skill lol. Which is unfortunate because with what you are saying it could be really strong. I just never got into a grove with either. Might need to revisit them.
A cool top would also be a Top 5 of best staves, or a Top 5 of overall best weapon for pure mages.
Despite Frost being only a "Decent" Element it has the Better Uniques of its tree.
It's a very fun element. Lots of the most powerful artifacts deal cold damage such as the frozen chakram. There just aren't nearly as many of them as there are decay or fire.
Amaceing video as always.
Thank you I appreciate it!
What about iron and the unsuspecting strength enchantment everybody forgets that exists

your graphic settings are beautiful, can u give it one day please, and great video
Yes I should probably do a settings video sometime. Go over FOV and things like that. Good suggestion.
This is the most incredible gift for xmas!!! Thank you!!!! ;v
You bet! Hope you had a good Christmas!

I regret selling my marble morning star :(
It's easily one of the best weapons. Unfortunately they also sell well lol. There is always skycrown though!

0.9 attack speed is slower than 1.0 right?
Yes. The fastest is 1.2 and the slowest is 0.8. Anything 1 and above is what I consider fast while anything under 1 seems a lot slower.
MERRRRRRY CHRISTMAAAAAAAS🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
And to you as well!!!!
I would pick mertons Mace instead of the tsar mace
Merton's is very useful and fun to get.
Great Video ! Still waiting for the Bow Top 5 and maybe a Video about Tsar Armor and Weapons in general
Top 5 bow will be coming out soon I hope. Thanks for the suggestions and hope you enjoy the future vids!
