Thank you all so much for replying. Also I am not quite sure how to tell if a weapon is an upgrade or not. would a 6/42 be better than a 4/29?

If you promise you'll gear for HP/resists and tank in groups with your bard I'll buy you a good starting weapon!

Bard tanking is fun. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

As for weapons, grab a calculator. Divide the damage by the delay. The higher the result, the better.... So a 6/42 is slightly better than a 4/29. Slower weapons are known to be spiky though. A few misses in a row can really hurt you. A few hits in a row can really hurt them. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'd probably stick with a faster weapon for now though.

Divide the damage by the delay. The higher number is the better weapon.

So 6/42 = .14285
And 4/29 = .13793

So the 6/42 is the higher DPS weapon, though only by a very small change. Also being a much slower weapon, when you're low and you tend to miss more often, it may actually lose more DPS than that small stat increase would account for.
