Proportionally how much of dps is db for something like a greatspear (excellent) compared to a hate 1hander (good)?
Troxx is talking nonsense. He has no evidence to support his claims.

https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=211 This post has 1 handed and 2 handed weapon examples with video and log evidence. Both weapons have very similar ratios. I am getting nowhere near a 16% increase in DPS with either weapon via +20 STR.

After 40 minutes of hitting a turtle, I got an average of 1.5 extra DPS with +20 STR. I don't think this shows a very strong argument for putting your starting points into STR.

Dsm i think your turtle logs may be showing that your attack is completely squelching turtle’s defence (always rolling high - thereby removing the DI variable we are trying to measure).

It’s too laboratory mob. You need to be using something that is applicable to levelling.Troxx does a bit better on this (assuming his top secret skeleton is a fair representation kf an xp mob) but really we need to level a knight to like 30 but not train double attack or riposte so we can eliminate some variables and look at how the average hit improves rather than dps.
People keep making this claim, but have yet to provide any evidence as to why the turtle is a bad mob to test on. I rolled 11 max hits out of 496 hits on my 2 handed video. I am not sure why that is considered to be "always rolling high".
