Your Favorite CTA Weapon?

I've seen all kinds of weapons used for CTA. I've always had the Flail CTA, but I think imma go for a Crystal Sword CTA cus it looks nicer :D

I like Crystal Sword because it doesn't require any dex at all, where the Flail might actually cost a few points if you decided to build a no-block sorc or some build like that.

War Scepter's are another decent choice if you want a Paladin staff-mod too, but they require a little more strength than Crystal Swords (not an unbearable amount though).


However, my favourite CtA:

Code:
Call to Arms
Caduceus
'AmnRalMalIstOhm'
One-Hand Damage: 144 to 167
Durability: 70 of 70
Required Dexterity: 70
Required Strength: 97
Required Level: 66
Mace Class - Fastest Attack Speed
Item Version: Expansion
Item Level: 87
Fingerprint: 0x8a49c1d
GUID: 0x16f76d67 0x8a71f93 0x0
+290% Enhanced Damage
Adds 5-30 fire damage
7% Life stolen per hit
Replenish Life +12
30% Better Chance of Getting Magic Items
40% Increased Attack Speed
+11 to Battle Orders
+11 to Battle Cry
+20 to Battle Command
+1 to Holy Shield (Paladin Only)
+1 to Redemption (Paladin Only)
Prevent Monster Heal
150% Damage to Undead
+2 to All Skill Levels
Socketed (5: 5 used)
And no, that's not hacked. The base weapon was found in version 1.07 (where +Holy Shield was a much more common staffmod), and the runeword was inserted in version 1.10s (a "beta" release, where CtA had different stats than the final release version).

Re: Your Favorite CTA Weapon?

I made mine in a flail since i use a phase blade Zeal for main so it was easier to see when it was equipped.. and got lucky enough to get a 6 - 5 - 1 version too :)

so now its some random blue piece of junk .. and i cant make my self sell it either :/

A (selffound) perfect superior +3 bow and crossbow skill matriarchal bow.
You lose 2 skill atmost, and only 1 if you don't have/want the strength for spirit. So that's quite a good option for amazons.

Still looking for the base weapon though.

What build uses that?

I made mine in Phase Blade. I want to hit fast. Not just BO-switch.
114-128 damage (268%)
+3 BC +6BO +3BC

Re: Your Favorite CTA Weapon?

I used to make my CTAs in Double Axes. Same reqs as Crystal Sword and 5 sockets max.
How come they are not used as much as Crystal Swords & Flails. :confused:

Also, is it really possible to 'reroll' a runeword into a magic item? Sounds odd to me..

i kind of like using a Twin Axe for a CtA. it's visually very different to the main fighting weapon of most builds so it's easy to see which you have equipped.

I agree. An axe is generally a good choice there.

Also, is it really possible to 'reroll' a runeword into a magic item? Sounds odd to me..
I guess I'll have to check that out.

Because they are ugly. It's all about being sexi.
Are you kidding? Double/twin/ettin axes look fine. It's war/naga/berserker axes that look bad.
