Im thinking of selling my SC to buy a BFC and I was just wondering if there was a cheaper alternative to it that doesnt take away too much attack...a 9 iconer should be fine but I already own both a stone club and a golden compass...is the ice club a good alternative to the SC? or are there other items that may do better replacing a SC?

SC was my main attacker, combining with either a stone club, or golden compass for icon variety...

dual duties are fine...i train defence and if it helps, i have a gelert, though i think its only useful for its healer, right?

if possible, i want something buyable but if i have to i dont mind going above 100k... im also NOT a big fan of those fractional dual duties that do only 7.2-7.6 damage..CWoS, FWoC, etc...unless someone can convince me otherwise...
Cloudy Wand of Storms and Frozen Wand of Crystals are both designed for their dual-duty aspect, and as far as dual-duties that knock Earth and Water. They're backup weapons anyway.

I'd probably recommend a second Stone Club as opposed to Ice Club, given that Water runs into Burrow/Sink. Psellias Fighting Fan (looks like they're priced just above unbuyable right now) is another consideration, semi-replacing Scuzzys Comb but making all three of your weapons Air-reliant. Then again, Air isn't easy to block.
also, is the black frost cannon worth 100k more than the rainbow? especially since, a lot of ppl say the rainbow's actual freeze percentage is 21% compared to the 17% suggested by IDB...?

if it really is 21%, i would buy the rfc instead....100k is a lot when you only make np from stocks

EDIT: just checked...its 200k difference not 100k!!!
