Dual wurmy's was pretty bad in my experience as a 60 ogre war. When I parsed 2 wurmys vs seb sword mainhand 10/21 and snare whip 14/28 my dps was much better until zerker. Once I hit zerker I was getting nice crips but it didnt make up for it by that much and aggro was horrible, honestly I remember it being even during zerker and less not zerker than seb sword and snare whip.

But that was with me soloing and tanking the mobs in KC. Is a really slow combo but if you like big hits, go for it. I didn't like the results, expected much more. Sold it the next day.

Wurmslayer just isn't good dps in Main hand. With the damage bonus of 11 at 60 (if I recall correctly), it works out to a 36/40 weapon. Compare this to a Lamentation for example, which becomes a 20/19 weapon.

You will get some big hits with dual wurmslayers, but you'll do more damage with a faster weapon in the main hand.

This is incorrect from my test. You do +11 damage to your hit not +11 damage applied to your main hand weapon. When I attack a sitting target with my main hand WS I did 153, with my off hand I did 142.

Your two previous posts just contradicted themselves. a 40 delay 2H would have a damage bonus of 17-18 or so, not 11.

I more than double the DPS with dual WS of the other warriors in VP who use malevolent runeblade and sword of the shissar

Then something is wrong with the accuracy of your parses or the game mechanics and I'd imagine it's the former.

Are you certain you're stacked close enough to the other warriors throughout the fights to register all of their melee damage?

Yes, wurmslayers currently are getting damage bonus for the delay which should only apply to two handers.

not that i disbelieve this guy, but this is the sort of thing that could use verifying from a second person. anyone?

awesome if dual wurmslayers is working out better than anything else, but that does go contrary to the currently understood game mechanics. sorry for questioning if you are indeed correct, sir [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
