I just switched to the dual scimitars for looks as
well, I'm using the brazen brass kilij (10/35) and the
obsidian scimitar (7/27 +6agil). Of course looks come
at a price, i.e. the kilij weighs 8.5 and the obsidian
weighs 5.0, so yes, jig is in the number 3 slot, but
in big groups I don't have to use it much, due to the
duration of the battles. It's also nice to hit from
18-30, so it 'looks' like your melee is doing
something :)
