Are you bowing Zlex out of range of AE or doing in/out with bow?

Nah just bowing Zlex.

I meant compared running in/out of the AE to melee is still about half the dps, maybe less (at least for me).

Argent Protector's higher delay makes it easier to swap in an offhand weapon between attack rounds, creating better DPS than shitters who don't weapon swap with their "better" weapon.

If you root, turn off attack until the button resets, and attack again (joust) your AP is a 42/0 2hs. Good ratio!

Or bow, or fear, etc. Lots of ways to kill stuff with a ranger.

remember buddy velious was beat in kunark gear and nobody was swapping weapons for more damage

you're definitely not a shitter if you beat that kobold down 5% faster!

So what? That has nothing to do with what is objectively better play. Warriors and Rangers who don't weapon swap would be considered low tier players if EQ was an actual competitive game.

For everything outside of shitty zerg raiding, maximizing your character's DPS is highly relevant. Trying to beat raid content with as small of a force as possible, or single-group content, or duo/solo - in all of these instances the difference of weapon swapping or not can easily change if you win or lose, or how much you will be able to farm in a given period of time.

And actually it can still matter for shitty zerg raiding, because a Warrior is building more aggro when they weapon swap and the extra DPS from all the Warriors/Rangers on the raid changes how fast the kill happens, and that could make a difference for being able to move onto another raid target before another guild.
