One hit for every two, huh? Know many people that use base speed 4.0 weapons, do you?
Here's a few interesting points:
- Our best weapon has an unmodded speed of 2.0.
- A decent quality Pikeman or Swordsman weapon has an unmodded speed of roughly 2.4, and about 1.4 times the maximum damage of our best weapon. Because these weapons are crafted, they can be tuned towards either frontloaded damage or repeating damage instead of always being exactly the same, like our knucklers.
- Swordsmen get higher natural speed mods from their skill tree than TKAs do (10 points more, to be precise).
- Even if you did hit twice in the same time it took your opponent to hit once, which you wouldn't, this is not the same thing. If you aren't familiar with the difference between frontloaded damage and repeating damage in pvp, you are not a veteran/experienced player by any stretch.
All you're doing is regurgitating the same old generalised nonsense that TKAs have been deluding themselves with for ages. The fact of the matter is that we have very good defense and abysmal everything else. The selling point for our profession is readily available to anyone with 39 skill points to spare. We need either better crowd control or better offense to balance out as a standalone profession, and if it's all the same to you I'm quite happy to continue posting on the matter until something's done about it.
The one hit for every two was just to symbolize that we ARE faster at dishing out attacks. Symbolization.
Idiot.
symbolization........lol
"moving on."
For the love of everything holy, move on.
