as i keep saying to you matt
with a few people assisting you the extra 20 damage you do from using a side style isn't worth it

When 1.64 comes and a 3.9 spd thruster is available you will soon change that comment, besides it's certainly not true on mid chain anyway, maybe on hibs yeah.You haven't played a merc that long so....

Bind it to one of your button on your keyboard?

Nothing to do with side styles. It's to do with not seeing "You hit for 200 (-150)" on healers.

you ass xD besides thrust is the best especially with 1.64 coming the slower thrusters... it does take getting used to though..

Just like when you were still slash, wielding a bastard sword in your main hand and a quickness as low as possible for doing as much dmg as possible on one (VERY slow) attack.

I'd rather do a little less dmg but hit a lot more in a fight.

If you want to do a lot of dmg with a slow attack play a pole armsman imo

 

[old.mattshanes]

I had cap qui as slash and always have had capped qui.....(once i was going to have a sc set with base qui too but never did, that's probably where you got that idea from)

Bastard sword+haste+jambiya=cap spd or near it with 210-220 qui...

Slowest mainhand+fastest offhand=best damage especially if the merc is 50 dw+reflexes 3+

 

[wildsorcerer]

dont forget the new neddle mace 4.1 sped 16.5 for mainhand and the 2.5spd Albion Fortified Hammer 16.5 also ....

Thrust gets a 3.9 and a 2.4 so the damage will be close even with hasteeffect mercs get

Yep like i said, that crush combo for example you stated would even be very good, 4.1 spd be a nice mainhand damage hit.... offhand never styles so doesn't matter.

4.1+2.5/2=3.3 spd with base qui on dual swing.

Now with capped qui that's about 2.8 spd or so....but when buffed it's probably 2.3 or so, if the merc haste's the offhand and dot mainhand for example, when that proccs it will be 1.5 spd.

0_o nice link matt thx

does this take into consideration merc duel weild natral haste effect ?

 

[old.mattshanes]

Yep now you see why i used bastard sword, it's more dps overall with haste.Although in 1.64 a slash merc would probably use the 4.0 spd as mainhand, that should be good spd with 2.6 offhand.
