Re: Mezraq dethroned?

but the attack rating for both polearms should be almost identical when equipped, I haven't equipped either cuz my drg never sees the light of day lol.

Yeah, I call shenanigans on a 4% difference in either direction. The stats are way too similar to see that kind of difference without a second confounding influence.

Damage is a zero-sum game - the total damage dealt by the party to a given mob is limited to its HP, plus overkill (which is always less than one hit). So any change in a party member will change your damage per fight too.

Re: Mezraq dethroned?

I don't think a 4% difference is significant enough to be conclusive. Even if equipment were identical, you'd probably still get a +-5% difference because one person was faster at targeting and attacking or one person was better at knowing when to WS... what would have been nice to see is have those same people parse 50 battles one way and then switch weapons and parse another 50 battles...

Attack is actually less with the Thalassocrat equipped. I think it was one point off.

Honestly, I'll use it because it just looks better. It's not enough of a difference either way to make one better or worse imo.
