P99 thrives on fast hits - in almost every circumstance the faster you can hit the better. That's because stuff typically dies really fast (even raid mobs). Over a 60 minute time span, sure, the damage is the same or better...but over 20-100 seconds? The misses are going to eat you alive with a slow weapon.

I was thoroughly disgusted with my Tranquil Staff compared to Epic/SoS

Uhg. That's kind of the conclusion I'm coming to. I guess I will just bag the IFS unless I'm in a group and hasted up and have heals but will have to stick with DW for soloing. I guess that also means I need to start saving up again for an SoS. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Ironically, the Quivering Staff seems to do pretty well. It's fast enough to keep the dmg flowing even with any misses. I guess that means the SoS would do really well for me considering the SoS has similar dmg/dly as a 1h weapon.
