Anyways, I completed my epic last night at lvl 53. 2HS skill is only 130 or so, should hit harder and most consistent within a few days. The proc is so nice! It also looks insanely bad ass. Thanks for the replies to the thread!

Also, I think both Knight classes are hugely underrated here. I bet SKs are roughly equal to Warriors both on raids (+15-20 dps from lifetaps if you don't mind medding up afterwards) and for XP (+15-20 dps from the 44th necromancer pet, and don't forget Banshee Aura & Vampiric Embrace taps chipping in). Once the 2H upgrade comes out I guess SKs are closing in on Monks. On TAKP my Monk (17/19+15/18, 3xAOB) would occasionally lose to Rocksmasher SKs nuking hard with a pet.
Sorry knights parse about 15-20 dps below warriors on this box (given both 60, both have good weps/haste/buffs)

Known verifiable information people...

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

I don't know about those numbers, but I am pretty sure that Lifetaps have a (non-classic) much higher resist rate here than on TAKP, making them not terribly useful against raid mobs.

Triple attacking with a strong primary seems better to a few extra life taps to me, but my sk (my first toon!) hasn't made 60 yet.

Isn't that exactly what I said? Remember that unless the SK does the parse their lifetap damage won't show up. And I imagine that most decent SKs are not inclined to time their lifetaps between swings just so their 100 man zerg raid can kill a dragon 0.01% faster anyway and instead are busy helping with the pull. But they could if they wanted to!

TAKP has the late-Velious immunities patch. I was quite surprised the first time I saw an Enchanter nuking Lord Yelinak! So SKs won't be able to tap Kael bosses and such yet. But I would expect that if Shaman slow lands 10% or so on TOV dragons after tash/malo that SK/Necro taps should land nearly 100%. I haven't done it, though, so perhaps a real SK will prove me wrong.

Not just that, but if folks would remember that the game includes more than just raid bosses, Shadow Knight damage-over-time spells, if stacked up, add about 30 DPS just on their own. It's not sustainable long term, but gives the class decent moderate-duration burst if needed. No, it's not a "DPS class", but it's still a handy capability to have, when needed.
