Which weapon from the summer update 2020 is the best for high level Elder Druid and is it good comparing to already existing weapons?

Question

Hello!

So many items have been added to the game with the newest summer update, so I would like to know which weapon is the best for high level Elder Druid?

By high level I understand 800+ :)

How this weapon looks comparing to the already existing weapons? Is it worth to invest in new weapons or druid should stay with ... a bow ?

Answer 1

if you hunt monster that have a lot of hp is better to use icicle bow, because you will have a double chance to active runes and you base hits will be great than rods basic attacks.

Answer 2

This will depend on where you hunt and if you do it solo or not. If I base my answer without considering price I would have to say Soulhexer   You see a soulhexer (Range:6, magic level +5, mana leech chance 100%, mana leech amount +3%, protection ice +12%).

It can only be wielded properly by druids of level 400 or higher.

It weighs 25.00 oz.

To know which rod would suit you best I would need more information but base on ml+ protection and effects this has to be the best.

If you hunt in team a cobra rod would help you with the life leech combined with an armor with vampirism to keep your life up while still healing your knight.
If you hunt solo or in energy library falcon rod with be the most help because it has the most ml upgrade besides the already mentioned Soulhexer.

To be honest I'm waiting for kind of comparision new weapons to the old ones in case of different hunting places (solo and in team). I would like to know if it's really worth to invest in Soulhexer or simple bow is still better during library hunts.

the mana leach is really low and protection only ice, i doubt that if you can buy this new rod you still hunt in ice library, would be better a icicle bow imbue, with diamond arrows so the charms have an extra chance to activate, the damage charms do on creature with that much health, 5 ml extra aint gonna make that much damage
