You may want to re-read what you're quoting. I'm pointing out that even without fistweaving, your math has 2h doing higher DPS than 1h: 28.3 2h vs 27.6 1h.

Nice try! That was a good line of attack on my reasoning. But you forgot to take into account double attack. It's possible the 2h weapon got more than average double attacks in my video. You need to look at the pure swing average if you want to remove the variance from the two tests.

Epic Fist is a 9/16 weapon, and IFS is a 38/40 weapon. 16 divided by 40 is 0.4. This means you get 40 swings of IFS for every 100 swings of Epic Fist.

Looking at a level 52 Monk using the data from this post:

https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=113

40 * 95.5 = 3820 damage from IFS.

27 * 100 = 2700 damage from Epic Fist.

Using the 48% dual wield rate from the video would be 48 swings from SoS.

34 * 48 = 1632 damage from SoS.

You are looking at 3820 damage from IFS vs 4332 damage from Epic + SoS at 100% hit rate. Most likely the dual wield chance is 50%, but 48% is better for steel-manning the argument.

Let's include double attack. Wiki says at 200 skill 50% of swings should trigger a double attack.

60 * 95.5 = 5730 damage from IFS

27 * 150 = 4050 damage from Epic Fist

34 * 72 = 2448 damage from SoS

So you end up with 5730 damage from IFS vs. 6498 damage from Epic + SoS at 100% hit rate.

The damage for Epic + SoS ended up exceeding the damage for IFS more than my original post for a level 52 monk without fistweaving. You laughed a bit too early.
