I'm very curious what you believe impacts your max damage. Weapon, strength, level, anything else? Does offensive skill matter?




I would love for someone to fully explain the Damage Interval...

Seems to me that DSM's approach is indeed more accurate, but that the (2*DMG + bonus) / delay is so much simpler with only minimal loss in accuracy (32.1 SBoZ equivalence at 40 delay instead of 32.4...

Back-running your calculations, I think a 32.34/40 weapon would be equivalent to SBoZ, meaning SBoZ is better than a 32/40, but worse than a 33/40.

Using (2*dmg + bonus)/delay, 32.34/40 comes out...

Your calculations are different than Snaggles, and I understand why, but both calculations come up with the same result: SBoZ is the better weapon. Is there any example where your calculations come...

2h pure ratio? Wouldn't damage bonus make e.g. a 30/30 2h better than a 51/50 2h?

Edit: ah ha, since damage bonus is delay-dependent for 2h, that's not true. Now I understand why you say 2h pure...

What a world we live in, where someone can think "I didn't mean to troll you" is an admission of trolling.

I was leveling my bard in Crushbone on Green something like 4-6 months ago. Lullaby wasn't resisted too often. This was at level 15-20 in the throne room.
