Also another thing to point out about whether weapon damage is in game or not, when dual wielding the same weapon in both main and offhand, you will always do the same max damage with both regardless of what hand swings. For me with two SSOYs in my hands, I do a max of 36 with either hand with like 225 str and a max of 30 with like 170 str. This shows that of course str plays a part in how much damage you do per swing in pretty large increments, but that damage bonus is NOT in play for seperate hands.

This could mean that damage bonus IS in the game, just applied to both hands, or that it's NOT in the game, and that your damage is raised based on str, level and weapon/offense skill.
Damage bonus isn't working here, but I could have sworn it worked on other emus, thus I was assuming it worked on P99. Damage bonus really needs to be a priority to get fixed here, because it's one of those classic mechanics that really made EQ different than other games, a somewhat hidden mechanic (before it was displayed on the item) that makes certain weapons better than they seem at first (moss covered twig, etc.)
