Quote:Geez, I'm not ignoring you - I just don't care about keeping up with every single comment that asks me something in this thread. Plus I have a couple of these uber fanbois that really want my attention.
Here are your answers:
1. Yes, I think the SWF lines are more powerful than the THF lines, because this is what I have data and personal experience for. I suspect that they are more powerful than TWF too, but I'm waiting for the TWF players to provide data and their experience for that.
2. I suggested that THF and TWF were more balanced against each other than SWF is against THF right now. Thunder-forged weapons rely on attack rate, and a TWF build with 100% offhand attack would definitely proc things at a faster rate.
THF did higher front number damage, procced glances, and had longer reach so cleaving mass mobs was more efficient.
Now, we have SWF that has much faster attack rate than THF, can take advantage of way more doublestrike bonus, AND it receives 50% more stat benefit than even THF, so 100% more stat benefit than TWF, already has 20% glancing blow damage. But since the stat benefit is already 50% higher, then that glancing blow damage is even higher, because its 20% damage off the front number - and the front number receives an extra 50% more stat benefit. And, as I've shown it takes care of mass mobs quite well, the only thing THF has going for it is the reach - but that didn't make much of a difference.
3. So lets just accept that paladins and barbarians suck balls. So what, what is it hurting? Combat styles should be superior in different contexts, not getting completely obsoleted.
Stupid question
Ho ho!

you thought I was a fan? well sorry to disappoint you I suspected you were a blustering, posturing, data-slanting post-bully who was committed to protecting his own little patch.
Lucky for me thanks to your "answers", I no longer suspect that. Now I am rather certain you are just so.
How sad that you feel the need to attempt to get Turbine to nerf the fun of others just to protect your own imagined sense of importance.
I don't tend to make these kind of judgments quickly, I watched about half your videos, and even went over to the mother board and read as many of your posts from the past three months that I could stomach and they all point to my conclusion that your a small little man who feels big because he knows how to squeeze every drop of DPS out of the rules, and is now terrified that some other little man will do more then him.
Now don't take this wrong, because I don't mean it as a insult, but you need to go out, and maybe even kiss a girl (or boy if that is your taste) and possibly even give a hug or two, and hopefully that will go well and naturally continue from there Because the tone and rate of your posts make pretty clear to a woman that you are in desperate, desperate, desperate need of a shag.
