I have been testing this too long, can you guys with 881 DPS and 917 DPS post please your Skill Unarmed damage, Unarmed Accuracy and Unarmed speed. I am just curious how good stats you have to do such damage.









This seems to be one of the last forums to actually consider DPS a meaningful stat. Its not.


Bottom line: Katarn at 715+120 cold = 835 > Nightblade


715 x 8% = 772 + 120 = 892 = most damage from a Teras Kasi weapon.


The Nightblade is close enough to not be in left field but it does put out less damage than the Katarn.

My rl wife plays as a TKM/Mdoc and I already sliced her Katarn, but last night I fully sliced her Nightblade with 8% damage and the level 1 speed slice and level 1 critical hit slice.


It came out to 820 max damage up from 760 it was when looted. 892>820 no question.

Yeah, it's true, the Katarn is the better weapon. The nightblade, however, is still nothing to sneeze at. It easily beats the crap out of using blaster fists or bare hands, especially if get get a good one and slice it 131. (2% speed, 8% damage, 3% critin non-smuggler terms) I have both now, and I will say that even though the Katarn is the better weapon, it's only because of the extra cold damage. Speed is roughly the same with the +10 speed on the nightblade, or at least it is to me.


I'm still using my nightblade since it's ADK'ed and the Katarn isn't, but I'm trying to sell theNightblade for an ADK + 1 mill so I don't have to destroy a nice weapon toget the ADK back. Not to mention I payed a lot more for mine since I wasn't having much luck getting a Katarn at the time. Then 3 days later I managed to nab a katarn for 3.5 mill.


My speed (unarmed) is 115, 125 with the nightblade equipped, but it didn't seem to change much. Accuracy is 200, 10 of that comes from the PSG I wear.


Stats on my nightblade (damage slice) are 412-825 dmg, 2.01 speed, 80 SAC, base DPS 307.62. With a +20.83% dmg / +6.05% speed PUP, it is 497-910 dmg, 2.13 speed, 397.95 base DPS. Does very nice damage with specials, and I rarely run out of action pool with foods.


To me, it's all about damage per SAC. The Katarn still wins, but not by a whole lot. Either weapon is leaps and bounds better than anything else we can get right now. So basicly if you can, get a Katarn. If not, the nightblade will do quite nicely, and is usually cheaper to buy if you don't have the expansion.

I thought the NGE couldn't be any worse than the CU, but I was wrong.

With my Katarn(dmg sliced/dmg pup) I did moredmg then the Necrosis(dmg sliced/dmg pup). When I put speed pups on them the same thing happend, more dmg w/ the katarn but barely. Overall I use the necrosis in pve(dont want to kill the Katarn) and the Katarn in pvp.

the cold on kk does not at the them max damage of the weapon it the max damge timeswhat ever special then add on the 120 points of cold damge...so adding it into the maxdamage is misleading

I have a well sliced Nightblade and sliced Katarn. The nightblade has the better looking stats for damage, but my katarn does WAY better in all PvE. I am so incredibly disapointed in the Nightblade and wondered why it gives such weak damage overall. Tried it on a lot of creatures from NS to level 50cl mobs, and at times it was giving less damage than if I used my bare hands. I am pure TKA as my combat. The ch adds no spcials. Anyone able to give me reasons?

I have the same problem with Blasterfists too - less damage than I can give bare-handed.
