Got a Gold Rarefied Rooted Gloom, and here are my current thoughts:

It crits far less often - owing to the fact that it is merely relying on the vanilla elemental crit-chances to dish out a critical, which I have observed happens only on occasions. To this effect, I was not able to make much observations on its critical damage capabilities, as the bullshit I've been encountering for the past hour has been mostly Garms and Undead, who are all resistant to Dark if I'm not mistaken. However, a crit triggered on a giant undead ONCE and only once, and it died instantly, this says something special that I'm willing to try out again tomorrow.

It doesn't help however that most support mage pawns out there are weapon enchanters, effectively rendering the dark-based crits redundant. I'm gonna have to use my own mage pawn, and slap on a dark enchanting spell.

Meanwhile... In the Iraklis side (which I brought along because the pawns keep giving my Gloom light enchantments), a condemned gorecyclops had SEVEN whole bars get taken out from a SINGLE successful arc. Of course, since it's just an Iraklis, the cyclops wasn't really visually phazed by it, no stagger or anything, haha.

Also, I'm going to add a side-note to the info: "The weapon has a higher-pitched longsword swinging sound." (Just like the Dragon's Flight is lower pitched)
