Soo I was doing a jelly king whit my avenger and then a guy with Faust joined I said hey let me see how fast ur sword is so he swing his Faust and then I swinged mine avenger then I said isnt ur supposed to Be faster? He said naa we a pretty even. So I inspected his faust and it was as fast as a calibur. Doh when use it looks like it as fast as the avenger(th avenger is as fast as a troika). EXPLAIN WHY ISN'T THE FAUST FASTER.

The tooltip is wrong, as documented here: http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Gran_Faust

"Avenger is as fast as a troika"

Obviously someone doesn't know a lick about speed.
Faust is roughly as fast as the avenger. Only one issue for their 5* counterparts, GF is slow as heck to charge... whereas the DA retains it's charge speed. That and DA splits to 3 sword cone while GF just shoots massive boolit.

Apart from that, have a nice day being blind. :P

"Avenger is as fast as a troika" hehehhahahahahaha

data

As the others have pointed out, it is well known that the statistics bars displayed on weapons are inaccurate. Do not trust them. As Skold-The-Drac says, DA and GF have comparable speed in regular attacks, but DA is much faster in charge attacks. For detailed "how many can you do in a minute" tests, see the Lancer Knightz sword data. By the way, these data also show DA/GF to be about 10% faster than Sudaruska.
