The biggest sword in game is one of the weakest swords in game! That's not right.
Before I get Triglav ASI VH, I was using Divine Avenger ASI VH, and first thing I noticed - was great difference between them in attack speed.
I though "Oh nvm.. it's looks so awesome.."
But then I noticed another bad thing - Sealed Line always prevent monsters attack with second swing, but Troika Line - not. So almost every combo makes me dead.
I though "Oh no worry, maybe its just a bug" and I made this topic http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/27541 where many users of this swords confirmed this issue.
Today I was in a JK run, equipped with maximum damage bonus, and at depth 16 I tried to check my damage:
• Triglav Complete 165/200 to all
• Faust 5 lvl 153/204 to constructs (they take its damage normally)
I though "ORLY?"
pc. I'm not talkin about charged attack, u know how bad it is.
Listed below Divine Avenger damage is to slimes and fiend which don't have resist or weakness to it.
• DA first + second swing do 597 damage
• Sudaruska first + second swing do 579 damage
• DA charged attack do 600* damage with swing + 131 multiply projectiles hits + multiply knockback
• Sudaruska charged attack do 468 damage
So the suggestion is easy. Just make Troika Line same with Sealed Line in average damage per second.
+ improve charged attack and add stun bonus to sudaruska as it was on troika/kamarin.
Also Sudarsuka should have a chance to receive stun from charged attack, same as curse from GF charged attack. I think it's fair and balanced.
Charged attack should have a bigger radius, because its almost impossible to hit monsters with it now.
It's boring to see everyone with DA and GF only because they are usefu.. ups! only because other heavy swords is underpowered.
Thank you.

The status lumbers attacks have high chances of causing their corresponding status affliction AND STUN.
The troika lines needs to be made more attractive to use..... and negative billion to the idea of nerfing the sealed swd lines if this suicidal thought was EVER brought up.
