Steel Hilted Flint Dagger vs other weapons
 

Anyone parsed this weapon? At 105 dex the proc should add 10.5 dps, 21 at 205 dex, and 26ish at 255 dex.

Anyone know how much a jade mace or something similar puts out at at various levels? What about the raw melee dps of a 4/28?

Basically, how does this thing compare to other pre epic ranger options?

I'd put this in class forums, but they get barely any activity.

I would talk to some of the rangers that have the VP ranger dagger sword whatever it is, but its the ice version-

duel weilding those bad boys should be awesome

I don't have them on p99, but on live they kinda sucked to dual wield ..... nothing for a while (hence very little damage) then 4 procs together and you needed to chain jolt.

The question is, is the threat:damage on the procs gonna be 1:1 to melee attacks? Unlikely, obviously, because threat on melee is determined by damage / delay regardless of hitting or missing but it does make you wonder. If these procs are <1:1, then with heavy procing weapons like these you've essentially increased your threat ceiling, which y'know, may actually matter when mobs start going 300k+ hp.

In my experience spell threat is ridiculously high on 1999 compared to melee threat. Its why warriors here are completely dependent on proccing weapons. However I need to run some tests to really quantify that.

I wouldn't give you 10 plat for it. When you have to depend on it procing 2 times, maybe 3 in a fight forget it. How much damage you going to do if it doesn't proc?

In most groups sustaining damage over time is going to matter more than if you have a few streaky fights without procs. That does raise another issue of proc overkill. If you proc when something has 100 hp left that's a wasted 525 damage. Since procs are normalized on a minute by minute basis that would affect true damage over time.
