In groups you will be the lowest dps in the group (unless you also have a paladin). If you have an ench or necro charming your dps is likely to be less than 10% of the total dps. If a small SK, having a 1h and shield allows you to interrupt spell casters. Since aggro isn’t a problem for a knight I wouldn’t overthink my tank weapon. Trying to do dps is a noble goal but not your priority…keep aggro, snare runners, pull if needed = amazing SK.
Soloing, it’s all you and later your 58 pet. Cutting 25%+ of your dps means longer fights, more damage taken, more casting spells, more medding. With a slow 2h you lose less dps between swings than with a 1h. Leave more in the bank for a solo 2h…reaver, narandi (55+), even an Argent Protector or Exquisite 2h. The Exquisite Lance is significantly cheaper. While the piercer path may be less ideal you do have a 1-skill path: 25/30 carved dragonbone spear - Exquisite Lance - Narandi - Lance of Thunder or Dawn Spear (if raiding). Heck, Kael even has a pretty cool 1h piercer you can get for free via quest or just killing the NPC and getting lucky. I also like the Blood Fork as a throwback OG sk weapon. | ||

Go camp this and save your 7.5k - I managed to get mine on my SK when she was level 5 so I know you can do it if you put your mind to it.
Tips: have an evac plan (hammer/cap) https://wiki.project1999.com/Sword_of_Pain I really did do this at level 5 - here is a copy of my post on how to do it 1) Must be level 5 to enter Velkators Labyrinth 2) Group comp I used was Paladin/Cleric/Shaman/Monk/Enchanter - Enchanters are awesome down here because they can illusion and be non KoS... Makes lulling/pulling very easy. Personally I think a 3 man group is the sweet spot but our 5 man made things a EZ mode. 3) Clear the ramps of all Blizzard Stalkers (they see invis) 4) Invis level 5 SK and run him to pit area and camp (this is a safe spot). If you have the kill force to easy clear the ramps then this part is easy. If not then it is a giant pain in the ass. I ended up dying and getting rez'd in the safe zone after some creative training and camping to get the cleric up there 5) There are 2 dogs when you drop in the pit, pretty easy to break in. I was able to drop in with the level 5 taking no damage at any time. 6) When you go up the ramp from the drop in room, the dog at the very far end that you will be staring directly at is the PH. He spawns in the center of a room down the long hall way with 2 others in his room. 7) Dogs are on a 30 min respawn 8) The named does not show a sword graphic in his hand even when he has the sword. 9) Use Leatherfoot Raiders cap to gate out of pit after looting 10) Slaughter monsters with your new weapon

Everyone should work towards their epic. If you play a lot, raid a lot, and are lucky it still might take a very long time. You don't just kill hill giants for a week and drop by the tunnel... | |||

But regardless, if you want to MQ an epic, you can always cut down the cost by collecting whatever components you can on your own, saving plat or enlisting guildie help for the ones you can't do on your own or the bottleneck spawns, like Trakanon. If he wants to buy the Reaver, fine, he can afford it, and it's a good weapon. He "should" be working towards his Epic as well. I suggested more budget-friendly options for him in case he wants to save his plat for something else, and also because I prefer weapons that have stats on them like Str/Sta/HP. I don't just concern myself with the ratio and nothing else.
