nice test --- ironic how the test is a far better than indicator than opinion --- gj guys on getting some info and testing

i still stand by a 118 ee polearm --- 336ee staff equivalent which is impossible at that lvl --- hitting every 2 seconds versus the 118ee sword hitting every second

but in the end it is preference and why i lub the game --- if we were all the same --- life would be pretty boring

great test and good info

three hundred and thirty wait what? where'd you pull that from?

heavy weapon is equivalent of 100 ee base weapon --- i believe polearm is staff so base polearm = 100 ee staff
118ee polearm --- where each 1 ee from heavy translates to 2ee on normal weapon so 118x2 = 236 + 100 base so 336 ee staff equivalent --- plz correct me if I am wrong anyone

you're close
it's more along these lines
staff = 100 (base) + 118 (EE) = 218
polearm = 2( 100 + 118) = 436 (of a staff)

so a polearm with same EE does exactly twice the damage
as you would expect

I would only assume AJ that this is why no one likes you.
