At max gear all of the tanks are really good here. I think the biggest differentiator between tanks is those with a sow sword and those without.
Late velious Monks seem overpowered, but they do have this going against them.

Noone is agreeing with you, though.
Several people have, but that's irrelevant. It's a fact that can not be disagreed with. Correctly using weapon swapping = more DPS.

It's only a question of whether an individual has the ability/willingness to do it (not difficult with a macro, which I still don't see how it would get punished and don't think it should be; highly doubt it would even be detected).

No, YOU have been insulting, writing shit like "just wants to feel superior to others, nothing more to discuss here". I've never said anyone has to play this way or insulted someone for not, stop putting words in my mouth. I've just discussed the mechanic and the DPS increase it brings, whereas you and others have been sticking your heads in the sand about it, clearly because you're mad at the prospect of someone else getting more mileage out of their character if they have better micro gameplay.

"I haven't insulted others"? You're so full of shit...

Your last post was pretty much mocking me for being an Australian and having to connect to an American server.

And now you're insinuating that people are lying to themselves about the ineffectiveness of weapon swapping as a Warrior.

I’m not the only one who loses mouse clicks when clicking to quickly on inventory, am I?

Yeah, it's almost like...it actually isn't a good idea to be weapon swapping in this manner, is it?

Everybody knows this doesn't work. We said as much 20 pages ago.

Another exhausting fast clicking strat is the sword and board dual wield - not swapping a shield in to bash - something new I call the Jimjam Juggle.

Lets say you have a polished granite tomahawk and a cracked darkwood shield, but you want to squeeze out a few more procs.

When primary slashes unequip, swap PGT to secondary keeping shield on cursor, then immediately requip shield and reequip the PGT to primary.

With this strategy you are now dual wielding a single polished granite tomahawk, increasing your rune procs by 50%, adding in some serious bash damage and improving your tanking thanks to shield ac.

It's exhausting and totally not worth it.

not to be confused with the Jumjum Jiggle, caused by increasingly sedentary lifestyles in Rivervale.
