Shortswords are not really better than wakis. It's just that they are more oriented toward attack rather than defense. But for your needs: yep a club of slaughter is good. But if you've got a decent power set to raise its damage output, maybe you'd want a club of the nimble to really max out your defense capabilities.
In the end you will just need to try it out to see if it goes well or not.

with a rapier of balance majority of users tend to use a Club of Slaughter. possibly with high Butcher/Fatality levels on both. you may also use Axe + Rapier, but apart for needing a bit of Overpower (from my personal experience, 4~6 should be enough) you may need to forge the Axe quite a bit. i'd consider it on higher levels. Shortsword + Rapier seems like a jack-of-all, master-of-none chance. less attack than club/axe, more defense than club/axe. may be viable until you find a club.
also, regarding wakis: waki users don't use them because BW process, ADB or whatever, but for their safety. wakis of nimble currently have the highest parry in the whole game (you can reach 90% on your build) and wakis in general have the highest DEX/AGI rolls. consider that 25 AGI = 1 Evade and 25 DEX = 1 Parry and 1 Crit chance...

Thanks for the advice. I will go for the Club + rapier. I'll start looking for the club, I do not have one (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) That of the axes confuses me a little. At higher levels is it good to leave the Stun for BW?

not for BW. for higher ADB. it's one of those postulated things. still needs to be proven, but on the paper it could work [edit]: btw, interested? https://hentaiverse.org/equip/71345483/535d63b2ddThis post has been edited by Scremaz: Aug 31 2017, 16:20

Which melee style would clear a pfudorfest fastest? (Don't suggest mage please) Even with OFC every 3 rounds, it would still take me around 20k turns (over 90 mins) to clear one.

Perhaps styles other than 1H might be faster at killing monsters, but I highly doubt they'd survive the later rounds of a PFUDORfest. I don't know anyone who's regularly clearing Pfest with DW or 2H. And 90 minutes is kinda the best you can hope for with 1H anyway, unless you get all 9 damage perks and a fully upgraded all savage+slaughter set. That's just how it is.

Friggo is right of course... PFfests last 200 rounds is very difficult. Only thing you could try is gum. But that's not worth the credits.

I Played Dual Wield for a long time (before switching to 1 Hand) with Club in main hand and Rapier on offhand. Trust me, at some point Rapier+Wakizashi will become a must unless you upgrade the equipment a lot, in fact i have stopped using DW completely until i fin a really good Waki for offhand. So, if you can find good equipment at reasonable price go immediatly Rapier+Waki. Or even better, go directly Rapier+(Force) Shield+Heavy Armor, better, faster and much more fun to play.

I'm having 2nd thoughts about 1H tbh. I just found out even with my heavily forged slaughter rapier and force shield, I'm doing DwD PFUDOR slower than an average DW build.

Yes. On the SGs when they're stunned. OFC spam every two rounds after round 120. Still take me 5k turns to clear (about half an hour) This post has been edited by as013: Sep 1 2017, 17:00

Well around 5k sound for me like quite a normal speed for 1H DwD. How many do you need with DW?

I don't care much about the non SG Arenas. All of them together should take less than 1 hour to do.
