I’m going to have to disagree with the weapon choices on the previous poster, though weapon use usually seems to be a lot of personal preference. It also depends on what type of dungeon run you’re doing (speed vs normal exp).

For example, my preferred COF P1 speed run weapon choices are Axe/Focus and either Staff (for when I’m feeling lazy) or Scepter/Dagger. For utilities I usually use wells with ground focusing, but I like to change that up. I always use Signet of the Locust, but that’s because I don’t like being slow, and on a speed run, that’s kind of important. I use a mix of Beserker/Rampager gear. (For reference, our speed runs are at or less than 10 minutes, with 2 wars, 1 guard, 1 ranger, and me.)

PvE I tend to use Axe/Warhorn or Focus, and Staff (because of the range), but I know a lot of people pref Dagger to Axe (to each their own).

For other utilities, I tend to rock minions when I’m doing PvE because I’m lazy, but wells are a fine choice. If you’re going the corruption route I’d consider the Plague Signet. (In my early days I killed myself once and had several close calls because I was using them without any way other than my heal to remove conditions – its a dicey area and heavily dependent on the situation, IMO.)

Anyway, my main point is that I don’t think both of your main hand weapons should be the same. Dagger range is only 130 (Axe is 600, which is mainly why I prefer it), so it doesn’t really make sense to have both your main hands with a melee weapon, unless you really, really, really like to be close.

My friend and I are looking for a new guild! We’re both PST, and currently located in Gates of Madness, but we’d be willing to switch for the right guild.

Him: Lvl 80 Asura Ranger, into WvW and PvE.
PST hours… Weekdays: 7 to 11 or so. Weekends: Anyone’s guess! Sometimes 9am to 10 pm on and off, sometimes not at all.

Me: Lvl 80 Asura Guardian and Lvl 80 Charr Necromancer.
PST hours – Weekdays: 5 to 6pm, 8 to 12pm. Weekends: Also anyone’s guess! Sometimes all day, sometimes not at all.
I’m mainly PvE, but I’ve done 5 or 6 dungeon runs (CoF except for one stint in AC)… I loved it, and I want to do more. I also dabble in PvP on occasion. I only play WvW if I know there are a lot of people on, so I’m not that experienced with it.

We’re looking for a guild that does dungeons regularly, is fairly active, and friendly. We don’t want a guild that has minimum weekly hours or anything like that – we’re both active, but sometimes life gets in the way.

Any questions, reply to me here, or mail or PM in game:
