+ skill to dw?

[Skaven]

Im 50 DW already, will adding anything to the + skill do anything at all? Ive heard from some quaters it only helps in pve.

My template atm is perfect, but its without any + skills apart from stealth. Just don't wanna gimp myself if its going to be a major factor. I do get +3 from normal RR bonus tho.

 

[swords]

it increases the chance to DW. you should cap +DW.

Nice cheers, you got one for + to thrust?

Would recomend capping Thrust also, it will effect your dmg output, ws and less effected by debuffs over having none.

 

[Gwidoc]

Yes thrust increse your damageout put.. but i think the spec really need to reflect how you play your merc.. if you want a merc with high dam and good in a groupe i would go for 50dw 50thrust and 28 parry..

but if you are more of a solo dude or small groupes, i would go for 50dw 39(slash, thrust or crush) and 42 parry.. i use this spec myself (39 slash)... and im very satisfied with it..

someone once told me that your flurry damage is calc with DW

no idea if its true ;d

 

[Vodkafairy]

dw does work, and you should get +11 to your weaponskill also.. and envenom.. and cs if you specced that way

 

[Osri]

psst, u can save char skill pts leaving dw to 0 !!!1111

asked around in game today, found out that Flurry is effected by your DW spec.. so i would go full DW and +11 in your sc

How much will DR being removed in NF effect Mercs?

If DR is Dualist Reflexes.. then i dont think it would have much effect.. im almost rr7 and have not used any points on DR

It sucks.

Any high rr merc/bm should have dr 3.(especially malice's axe/battler wielders)

Yes cap +11 dw since it's 5.5% more dual swing rate and dualist reflexes being removed too in new frontiers as stated before.
