-A good early game weapon for Maces & Flails users, since it's good at low skill. Despite being two-handed, they attack both harder and faster than both [[mace]]s and [[flail]]s, meaning it takes less skill to reach a "reasonable" [[attack speed|attack delay]].

 If you are a Maces & Flails user who hasn't found a [[shield]] yet, there's little reason ''not'' to use a dire flail. Even if you have found a shield, a dire flail can remain competitive at low weapon skill. At high skill (around 14-16 skill), it is generally outclassed by either [[morningstar]] + [[shield]] or a [[great mace]].
