Whatcha using for Ooze/rusty beaters at cap?

So my Lasting Oil Of Strengthening potions are getting pretty low which means I am running out of time where I can be lazy and not have any dedicated ooze/rusty beaters.  I missed out on the broccoli beaters from whatever event those were from not knowing what I needed back then.  I have some blueshine random and crafted clubinators, and sometimes use my soulrazor ooze multiplicatinor.   But none of those really fall into my hottness category for this task. 

What are you guys using/making/farming for this shite?

Farmer, I called those broccoli beaters but the ones you are talking about are the ones I mean.

Zoo,
I have some various crafted and decent random blueshine beaters.  I was just wondering if there was something that was “the best” weapon for this?  Or does everyone just use some crafted or random stuff?  Or if crafted,  what’s the best crafted version?

Special materials drop more often in game now and that includes Crystal.  Crystal is immune to Ooze and Rusty damage. Cannith craft some Aberration bane or Ooze bane and some nice prefix onto a crystal blunt weapon and you're all set.

What’s better, try to find blue steel random drops to use as crafting blanks or to go crystal?  Are there crystal random drops or do you need to craft it into a regular blank?  From what I remember, if the material already had a metal type and an augment slot,  those carried over to the crafted blank and you could spend you materials on all the other prefixes etc.  so I thought the overall weapon would have more bonuses this way?

I just looked on the AH and I found blueshine, but I didn't find crystal, so it looks like I remembered it a little bit wrong.

Blueshine used to be a prefix or suffix or whatever, but now it's a metal type. If you buy a Blueshine weapon off the AH, it will keep the blueshine and any augment slots it has when you make it into a crafting blank as long as it is the new Blueshine material and not the old Blueshine prefix/suffix (I don't rememeber which)

Which means I would pay plat for it, but don't pay any astral shards for it because I don't know how to tell 100% for sure if it's old or new.

Crystal doesn't drop as a random loot item.. only named items and Cannith raw crafted within the Manufactury

In high reaper, there’s nothing quite like dire charging a group of oozes with dual Soulrazors equipped.  Expect anywhere from 3 to 8 reaps to spawn.

People like to stay a bit behind me in the cave section of Final Vintage for a very good reason, lol.

Also, at cap those ferrocrystal weapons in feywild could make effective ooze/rust beaters for a minimal investment of time to farm mats.

You know, I have been brainwashed into no slashy the slimey, so I stopped myself from considering another soulrazor.  I mean, 1, slashing an ooze is like watching sonic the hedgehog exploding coins every where, and 2, ironically in this situation, many of those extra mobs I painstakingly created with love, drop tons of remnants.  My closed minded thinking has held my groups back! 

I didn’t know about the ferrocrystal stuff.  I haven’t purchased “it “yet cause I don’t wanna have to buy the don mega version with a shite unicorn and all it’s other crappy shite package just so I can rip through the crappy iconic lives for the past lives and maybe the active buff.  I might do another soulrazor.  I’ve been looking for an excuse to do it, but I have to ask permission from Rubbins first so he can make up my mind for me. :p.

Even the best crafted weapons I’ve made and used or the best green blueshine weapons feel weak to me and make baby jesus want to cry.  And I think that people are starting to notice me running around avoiding hitting all the annoying shite mobs in all the reaper quests everyone is so fond of doing.  So I procrastinated on what to do and another soulrazor is definitely an option.  Anyone else have any ideas?  I picked poorly when opening my free weapon box so I don’t have celestias which I thought would also work.

In closing, shite shite shite, shite shite, shite shite shite.

If you are 2handing you can use a Crystallized Eternity from mabar event. I've made a lv 20 and a 28 just to deal with oozes.

If you are 1 handing or dual, you can craft gaywild weapons since they are made of crystals....

If you have Improved Critical: Bludgeon, this is pretty effective.

  

Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things.

This is what I am using on my fighter as well. Even without ICB, its an effective weapon for beating down oozes and rusties.

There's a ferrocrystal for every build. Hardly an inconvenience.

There are several upgrades.

First, there's Muckbane (one-hander, lvl 2). Then there's Muck's Doom (one-hander, level 6), Muck's Devastation (two-hander level 6), and finally Muck's Obliteration (two-hander, level 21).

Legendary alchemical with crystal attunement will also work at cap, if you have the base and can be bothered with the effort of crafting.
I also think Shining devastation is hard to beat. I find it better than Mucks Obliteration.

I made an alchemical battle axe for my offhand as I have never made one before. Having never made any alchemical weapons to date and totally prepared for letdown and copious fuckups, I made an electrical wanna be battle axe because I figure all the Thth stuff is electrical and I wanna pretend with my foe thth axe.  Now I can’t find any time where this would be the weapon of choice over my other options.  I might swap out the offhand d dildo in certain circumstances.  That said, I will insanely make all the same mistakes again to make two bludgeoners for ooze beating.


Anyway, I went and made a other soulrazor to feed my instant gratification.  Now on to multiplying my enemies!
