Helwax Mold Equivalent *Possible Spoilers*

[Padraig]

Hello all,

 

Does anyone happen to know if there is an equivalent to PoE 1's helwax mold in this game (AKA a legit way to duplicate unique weapons/armor)? I'd love to duplicate Scordeo's trophy to quickly get stacks of Opening Shot on a charge, then switch to swords for melee (my main is a blackjacket/trickster multiclass).

 

Any answers would be much appreciated!

No need for helwax mold in this case: You can achieve the very same thing by putting any melee one-handed weapon in the off-hand. At range you'll attack with Scordeo's Trophy only, while getting the same recovery reduction from two-weapon style and dual-wielding.

Forgive me if I am misunderstanding you, but wouldn't wielding Scordeo's Trophy in one hand and a one-handed melee weapon in the other only give me stacks of Opening Shot when I start at range? The idea I've been pursuing would be to dual wield two Scordeo's Trophies, each one granting a stack of Opening Shot on a hit. If I do a charge with them, wouldn't it proc attacks with the pistols on each enemy between myself and my target? As far as I understand, that should grant me several stacks of Opening Shot at once, which I can then utilize by switching (with blackjacket's rapid switch) to dual wielding swords. If this won't work, please let me know so I can go back to the drawing board with character builds!
