Don’t rely on procs. Get the best possible haste you can. White damage is the most reliable.
Yeah, like Scepter of Destruction

^ Bump ^

This guy is 100% right! In every mmorpg ive played a tank and just your white damage output alone is usually your best reliable threat. So warriors get that ATK up! fk those rogues

blanket advice like that isnt helpful, not part of the discussion point really.

i know white damage makes up more than 1/2 your aggro and maximizing haste to improve it further is key to holding agro. this is a question about a specific weapon and its odd and poorly documented proc. the fact that its an 11/18 weapon already means it has great white damage. already have haste.

the question is really closer to 'is this better than other comparable ratio weapons with a typical spell effect proc of 400 + DD aggro, or is the dot/heal of the mob actually counter productive compared to more easily acquirable weapons'

The heal does not reduce hate, there is no such mechanic related to reducing hate by healing NPCs in this game.

Feverblade is second best threat generation in game behind SoD. That does not make it the best tanking weapon, though, because it lacks good tanking stats.

Im not sure if the devs capping proc aggro to 400 includes capping the dd hate as well or what. Idk if theres a way to reliably test or not otherwise its just what someone thinks.

They have been testing weapons using that high hp turtle in Iceclad.
Found that the lowest delay wep offhand is better agro regardless of proc. And for primary the vp weapon is best (besides sod obviously), because the hate generated is by how many times you swing and not the weapons damage ..

So best setup for agro is currently pox blade primary, krez flame offhand or nev horn (15 delay is why, the proc doesn't do much).

I still use red blade primary/ trident or jaleenas katana offhand and do just fine though /nod.

After overpaying for a fever blade it is all I use now, not even joking, the agro is way better then red blade and to be honest I'm about to bank the red blade...sad but the agro from fever / katana is just so much more reliable
