SK DPS broken?

[Lemonhead]

30/39 is a pretty poor ratio also. I looked at SK 2 hander and notice they don't get a lot of options. But, you would be much better served going to 2HS. The 2hb velium weapons are overpriced because Druids and Casters can tool around with them.

There's a 32/38 2HS and 30/35 2HS for reasonable prices. And the 32/36 if you get 10-12k. As is stands now an Ebon mace (0.79 1HB 5kpp) beats ur 2hb (0.78) so maybe switching to that will improve the RNG game for you.

i too experienced poor returns on a velium stick, think i had the 32/39 one. traded it in for an ebon mace and an atra shield and havent looked back since!

This seems to be the case with all 2H weapons for Knights. Sorry to say 2H damage feels very under-powered for us right now. The miss rate is crazy high and even more disappointing is the average/max hit damage. I highly recommend switching to a 1H weapon, op.

Just get a Palladius Axe. Seems to be working well.

Yeah, I like my reaver a lot more than I like my noctivigant blade. Big spike in dps parse. I'm sure it'd be better with a better 1h but I certainly don't feel like 1hs are inherently superior. I expect 2h weaps to be even better once we get the extra 2h bonus in the next patch.

I believe around that level range Knights damage tables fall behind pure melee a small bit as well as the mob toughness jump. So the combination of the 2 may make things seem rough for the time being

swish that is TOTALLY unacceptable. Remove this post immediately or you will (again) be a former member of Europa.

It's an example of the mentality of people playing the game... they play for pixels they don't need.

The point is SKs aren't there for "dps spec", the dps isn't as low as a paladin I think but still the focus should be raiding to be a better tank rather than adding "+7 str" for an extra 3-4 damage a swing or whatever.

I can't remove the post, it's been longer than 30 minutes and we can't edit after that.

I was expecting a forums post from the BDA members forums.
