The base Cleglaw's damage is 3-19, not impressive at all. There is a 50% chance of deadly strike, which doubles the damage if that happens, still not impressive. But when you have a second item from the set, the maximum damage increases by 1.25 per character level. So a lvl 80 barb using Cleg's has a base 3-119 damage, with a 50% chance of double that with Deadly Strike, so it averages out to be 4.5-178.5 damage (3-119*1.5). That is of course before str bonuses (which are less for swords than for bhammers, (10% more for BHammers, which closes the gap a little)), weapon mastery, etc.
The AR bonus is 30% from the sword. The blocking on Cleg's shield is terrible, 30%, with Twitch is comes up to 55%, not that impressive. So
you can use the gloves for the second item, which give the 25% slow effect and a +10 to AR per level for having the second item, which is a big plus in PvP.
Swordback gives good blocking and a source of open wounds, a big source of damage with high-level characters. Here's the deal with Open Wounds:

Open Wounds:
Damage per frame:
Clvl=1-15: ((9*Clvl+31)/256)) * Modifier
Clvl=16-30: ((18*Clvl-104)/256) * Modifier
Clvl=31-45: ((27*Clvl-374)/256) * Modifier
Clvl=46-60: ((36*Clvl-779)/256) * Modifier
Clvl=61-99: ((45*Clvl-1319)/256) * Modifier
Modifier:
Triggers on a Player with attacker using a Melee Attack: 0.25
Triggers on a Player with attacker using Ranged Attack: 0.125
Triggers on a Boss Monster with attacker using Ranged or Melee: 0.5
Trigger on Other Targets with attacker using Ranged or Melee: 1
Open Wounds has a duration of 200 Frames (8 Seconds) and will reset the timer if reapplied. It's not actual damage but a Negative Life Regeneration.

So on a normal monster, an open wounds hit from lvl 90 player would do 2133 damage over 8 seconds, or 1728 from a lvl 80 player for another example. In PvP, divide those by 4 and they are still impressive.
sounds good
