Are the visual bars on the weapon statistics accurate when compared to one another? in particular im interested in the Attack values
i.e. the Leviathan blade's stat normal attack value bar is barely lower than the Khorovod, does this correspond to the damage numbers?
Ty for the all the answers
i see, thanks for your input ramune!
does anyone have any insight on the actual damage numbers between weapons on neutral damage monsters?
If I recall correctly, Vog Cub gives +2swdspd on each piece and the Swiftstrike gives +3. It caps at +6, so... yeah, you're wasting a point there.
One theory:
The attack bar corresponds to how much damage is done in a total combo, hence why Leviathan, Khorovod, Divine Avenger, etc. have similar attack, yet different numbers in each hit of course.
Though I guess the cutter series would break that mold...
There's been quite a lot of discussion about this on the forums, particularly about the Leviathan versus Cold Iron Avenger...
But if you're looking for attack speed bonus, you should know that there is a limit on how much you can increase. If he was using a Vog Cub set and the Swiftstrike, he might've (sorry, I'm no good with numbers, and I don't actually know the limit) already reached the limit, hence, both swords might have the same attack increase. Now, that doesn't solve the question as to whether they're the same speed...are they? Nobody knows, unless they've used both. The bars can be off by quite a bit, and some things that seem weak are actually much better than others. I'd recommend asking around here. Eventually someone will know the answer, as per actual use of the weapons...
