Not long ago, after a long hunt for Yczorah, I acquired the new legendary sceptre (Yczorah nucleus) which I find very interesting to play. But I don't know how to play it (with a shield: black defender, a sword: RoL, HS, Yatagan...)
Do you play it too? If yes, with what?

with the right equipment and 2x Yczorah you reduce move cost down to 1 AP


You see, beside the lower number off attacks per round my char could kill even the demonic arulir with one hit (when equipped like this)
But where's the fun in that?

I was used to hit, hit, hit and hit in any fights, but with this 2 weapons combo I needed to adapt to move, when special conditions disabled attacking. Against high HP monsters and high enough BC its easy to ignore AP reducing conditions or being surrounded by enemies. And for grinding XP this is imho the least fingertip straining weapen combo
