I am mainly just wanting to use Sword Sword as one weapon set but im unsure as to what to pair it with, obv i would want a range option for kiting and range poss but i was unsure as to what spec to focus? atm i believe i need Prec mainly for Sword/Sword but is it possible for other options?

you want to stick to power based weapons.

Your options are scepter/pistol, sword/focus and greatsword from what i’ve seen.

scepter-pistol is the more defensive option (another block and a semi-cleaving cc to add to your block and invulnerability and a power-based phantasm)

scepter-focus is a more group-centric option with warden’s feedback (another block plus a lot of projectile reflect)

greatsword is a more offensive weapon (auto attack hits harder and has 3 chances to crit to proc on-crit buffs, many abilities are aoe and can stack might)…
greatsword does have some kiting tools, but if you prefer to be in close, scepter-pistol or scepter/focus might be a better option.

For the record, I run sword/focus with greatsword.
