Yea Aary is a demoralizing parse due to the -200attack debuff but it’s generally a long fight and no AE to get torped on. I like Dain for that too.

Nothing to do but melee and wait. Or click weapon slots, as it seems.

Ya dps will be lower but it's good for showing where you can parse, I'm above tstaff monks, couple rogues and wars

Send account info that has a character with those 2 weapons!

Sooo, not tested then?

[Snaggles]

You can parse with any weapons, doesnt have to be BiS. Before vs After, it's about the percentage gain not the end number. Monk 2h and tossing in a SoS for example.

Unfortunately any short parse will more likely show examples of parse scatter than measurable gain. So have fun rapid-clicking for like 10 mins at least.

[Duik]

Wouldnt faster weapons with exteme haste make gains made by swapping more difficult to pull off?
Using a shitty slow 2hs with 21% haste is much more forgiving of a misclick etc.
Zuran seems convinced and him not having access to BIS stuff gave me the idea maybe it works, but at crappy equipment lvls (like mine...) it is worth it.
Just my 2cp.

[Snaggles]

If you pull it off a few times the part of your brain that will use Observer Bias will multiply that success out minutes without a failure. In reality you don’t know how many times you are missing a MH swing because that’s data you are less interested in.

There are a lot of ranger tricks out there to boost dps. None involve quick swapping unless it’s after a slow or tash to a weapon that’s actually good.

It's already been done with other weapons and is basic math what the result will be when upgrading.

Da fasterer da weapons get, the more difficulter it gets to get returns on your "you beaut ye olde weapon swap technique". Now, messa gots no logs/parses to prove/disprove this.
But neeva do yousa.

Now, original EQ maybe. Slower (by velious standards) weapons, less 2hs dam bonus (from recent era patches) and more time from less worn haste and lesser spell haste ya maybe gots a point.

From this point. Proof or shuts up.
