1 Handed rosary users?
The thought just came across my head, because shields should be better because scrolling capabilities. Because I already have a decent rosary, and I didn't want to go through the hassle of getting a new shield, I remained with my rosary and 1h mace. I was just wondering if there are any people like me, because it would probably be pretty uncommon

Yea I thoguht about using a rosary because than you can swap between 2h and 1h quickly if the chance happens but the issue is that the terminus shield is the only secondary atm that is in the final potential teir I just bought one not too long ago, im gonna be perfecting it with 60% (maybe a 30% if i can get a protection scroll every now and again )
I used a Lunchbox until it sadly broke not too long ago (*sniff*) and, before I had been hacked, I had a decent 14 atk Black Phoenix Shield. I'd been using an atk 6, atk 3% Bronze Kalkan for a while until I managed to get a hero medallion that was overall stronger (plus froze enemies, which increased my damage moreso).
Even so, I still had an Empress 1-handed sword equipped (replaced after losing my LB). I even managed to get 6 of those 8 atk maple scrolls on it and found a cheap SW 1-handed sword in FM a while back. Just this past weekend, I successfully transposed it as well, giving me a nice little sword with (I think) 248 atk on it. And, since it's completely untradable, I have no intention of changing weapons for a loooooooooong time.
Sure, it's not "optimized", but who cares? Damage isn't everything and besides... the speed boost provides better damage over time and faster combo gathering... and if I can kill whatever I fight in the same number of hits either way, it doesn't really matter, does it?
I'm a seal with rosario combo.
I'm pretty rare myself.
Yeah I was 1H rosary until very recently, purely because my rosary had better bossing stats though.
@LitheMovement: Yep, partially the reason i'm a 1h rosary user myself, haha
I've been thinking about doing this for quite some time now actually, purely for bossing as it is (apparently) easier to get weapon potentials on rosaries than shields. I'd need unique pots to come back once again to do this however.
Playing for looks has me playing with a 1-H and a medallion on my Hero. It'd be the same with my Paladin but he found a green hoflon and I figured that was good enough.
If there are any available and you can afford it, a Terminus Shield is the best viable option. 13Str/Dex clean with 8 Slots, While also being able to have the final potential tier, it seems so much better than the rosary. Just my personal opinion
Well, it doesn't optimize damage, therefore it's not common.
