I play a Stalker and i use Celestrial Fury, but if i was to dual it with Crom Faer would it really be that much more powerfull, im using Foebane/usonos blade/Agruvandale in my good hand and Celestrail in offhand, so if i was to know out usonos blade and throw in Crom Faer would it be smarter???:

crom faer and celestial fury is probably the best combinations of weapons there is. always have the crom faer in your off-hand, you can switch the other weapons around, but always keep the faer in your off hand.

The best ability of the Crom Faeyr is the 25 str. It adds a lot of damage and to-hit, especially the jump from 24 to 25. Wear it offhand because it will help your other weapon a lot. Celestial fury is perfect unless it is someone who is immune to stun or +3 weapons.

So definitely Crom in the offhand and use whatever on your mainhand...

Crom Faer improved my main hand weapon's thaco from -7 to -10 (due to the Strength bonus for melee), so I agree on keeping Crom Faer in your offhand.

k this thread is about CF anyway so i have a question:
I have -with my blade- Blackrazor, Celestial Fury and Crom Faer,
wich weapon should i use in mainhand, Celestial Fury or Blackrazor?

Due to alignment, I usually don't get Blackrazor, but I looked up its stats and I think it's better than Celestial Fury. Of course, you can also wield Celestial Fury until it stuns an opponent (even if it is for only a short period of time) and then switch to Blackrazor (you can even switch back to try and stun your opponent again, once the effect wears off).

It seems that nobody likes the hindo's doom katana... why?, It's a great weapon - gives immunity to death magic and 10% or 20% mr

works well with cel.fury!

Crom is the ultimate in offhand weapons due to the STR bonus, and also great as weapon/shield weapon for many SoA fights where high ac really matters (Mind flayers for example). If you're high level kensai then you may gain more from a +1 attack offhander plus a str girdle. For stunnable opponents who dont have uber saves cel fury is very good primary hand weapon. In the case of your stalker I'd recommend celestial primary and Crom offhand for general fighting against decent opponents. Against hordes of wimpy ones something more like Crom primary belm offhand might be better (assuming you have at least 2 stars in hammer) as you'll dish out a fair bit more damage per round and lack of stun wont be too important.
