However, there is one constant weak spot: my weapon. This is a story I know many of you are familiar with (certainly one with which my husband’s Paladin can sympathise) as the choice of upgrades is deliberately small. There is no engineering gun this time around, and only one Epic drop in Heroics. I’ve tried, but my luck in any kind of group instance has been just above woeful.
