Can confirm dawncaller in KC is fantastic and before that craslith does the job in unrest.

Wait Vulak sword gets a damage bonus since the ratio is slower? Wow. You guys are convincing me to maybe save more for Vulak Axe. I'm so confused on what to get.

it gets a higher bonus, but tuna sword will outdps it, if you can get one you can get both, so who cares in the end.

it gives 5+ top dmg, worst bonus in game.
If you want to compete where it actually matters: Knight DPS, you've gotta go for Tuna sword or probably even better Meljeldin, Bane of Giants. Attack speed is everything.
For people saying knight dps doesn't matter; you're a Kamala voter and I don't care about your feelings or "facts".
Knight DPS is the ONLY thing that matter.

lol. That's some copium. 5 less damage and terrible stats to swing .5 seconds faster

And the bonus of Palladius is the irresistible life tap proc

Meljeldin doesn't come close to either one in functionality or dps

That's why it's relegated to be equipped by rangers forever.

Its not the ratio its the higher delay.

I know why it gets higher bonus what I'm saying is the dps is still less, with the higher bonus

[Duik]

Larger damage bonus with worse ratio not enough to overcome the lower damage bonus plus better ratio.
At a guess.

Some kind of sweet spot with regards to ratio and damage bonus (like moss covered twig was great in era) /shrug

On my warrior gaudralek out dps's vulak axe. 140 unresistable with more crippling blows and triple attacks.
