hey guys can someone answer this for me?

Acid Etched War Sword- 8/24 and procs at lvl 37

Short Sword of Ykesha - 8/24 and procs at lvl 37

Ykeshan War Club - 9/24 and procs at 40.

I get that the war club procs at 40 and has more dmg which is why the price may be different (250-300pp) but why is the SSOY so much more expensive then the Acid etched? Does SSOY proc more?

SSoY is a fad thing. 2 of those swords together are WAY cooler than 2 blunt pieces of wood.

Some of it has to do with the rarity/difficulty of getting SSOY. But yeah, the pricing has never really made sense.

SSoY's have a higher proc chance on swing than the others. It's why it's more expensive. I have found though that the Kunzar weapon (engulfing darkness proc) is 100x better than holding two SSoY. The Kunzar should be in your MH while the SSoY in your OH. The Kunzar has about a 30% higher chance to proc on a swing than the SSoY so it will help you keep aggro a LOT easier. I have done weeks of testing now on my parser program.

Nilbog: All weapon procrate mods set to zero

It may have been true in the past that SSOYs proc'd more often then the other Yak weapons, but it isn't true anymore.

I suppose i could just be getting lucky, but I don't think so. My parsing info says otherwise.

Hell just my proc rate in general says otherwise. I am 100% sure they didn't make every proc weapon have the same rate to proc. If I am wrong then I am getting really lucky in the chance to proc department.

Are they recent parses? This change just barely happened in January, and are you parsing SSOY and then comparing it to yak club ect..? Making sure you're not getting dex buffs or making changes to your dex in general between tests.
