Velious 2H changes

[heartbrand]

I have never seen a damage bonus on red99. I tested a wurmslayer 25/40 vs a Skarlon sword 25/40, both did the same max damage and both parsed essentially the same.

Because of that delay, you're getting way more hits at a higher average, and the 2h bonus hasn't yet caught up.

Edit: my bad... I was automatically figuring in a shield for bash

You just explained why a 15/20 1h would be more damage than a 30/40 2h. But the deathbringer rod has a better ratio than the noc blade, so even though the noc blade benefits from the flat damage bonus more frequently, at 43 the deathbringer rod is still going to do more dps.

Like I said. My 40 SK (just 3 levels below the OP and the same class) does a fair amount more damage with the 29/36 GFG than with the 19/24 ebon mace... and those two even have a closer ratio to each other than noc blade and DB do.



OP: just go get gameparse, turn on logging in your ini file, then xp on 50 mobs with noc blade and then on 50 mobs with deathbringer, and you'll see firsthand which one does more damage. It really isn't a big difference, but you definitely aren't doing more damage with the noc blade.
