YAVSD : OpFi^Kiku, soooo angry about being stupid

[mopl]

Current OpFi of Kiku, going Polearms.

I just found a qblade in Lair, and I wonder if it's a good idea to pain-brand it and use this.

I also have a glaive of freezing, but I feel like Op cannot afford the loss of the shield

There are no monsters in sight!

[Sandman25]

Yes, qblade is the best weapon for pain-branding because of 0.3 attack delay. You still can switch to demon trident or something when dealing with rN+ monsters. 8 levels is very cheap.
