Just looking for some advice where to go next, I want to stay down this sort of balance. Slightly more str or dex? Also 2 weapons vs 1 weapon and shield? Thanks for any help

Its just my opinion, but 1 weapon + shield is always better then 2 weaps if you going balance.

You'll be wanting silver katanas next, you could freak them now relatively easily (grab a duskdeep and tearhaunch). Then jupiter edges > gold katanas. I can't remember exactly, but I think two weapons are better until something around 200 dex. Especially if you are scoring

55% block is usually where I start to use a shield. That's mostly for training though, don't know if it's the same for scoring.

If you are attacking, i'd use two weaps. If you are defending (dumping), i'd use a shield.

Alright thanks for suggestions there, I'll let you know how I get on if I ever level. By freaking I guess you mean having a weapon at some stupidly low level? Is that actually better than the armor rating?

Freaking means equipping items that give lots of str/dex, buying a weapon, then putting on better armor's, normally something with high defense, con and maybe dex. You (probably) won't have the stats to equip the weapon afterwards but it's still equipped
