always assumed that was because half of THF's big WSs (Evisceration for example) are crit based, while Rudra's loves its WSD, so SE split the difference.


There's your WSD +11%!


edited to reflect those smarter than the Indica I'm currently enjoying.

I'd be ok with RDM (and MNK) getting.... like 30% WSD

(provided theyre never going to fix mnk ws)

THF got 11%... not 6%

I got it monk will have 30% WS DMG but -300% movement speed !

So you slowly walk towards the mob to finish it at like 1% hp.

Also while under Boost movement speed is reduced by 10%

Generally, if a piece of equipment says "Enhances X" it's just increasing the effect of that ability or trait further. If it says "Augments X" it's usually adding something different to it in some way.

I keep hoping they added something to it that's interesting enough for me to remember to even use it. Ever.
Maybe heals allies for the damage done? :o

Maybe 1/5 of my WS are stacked. We got 6%, not 11%.

You should be using evisceration more

At the bare minimum 1/3 of your ws should be eviscerations

Samurai snapshot?! Amazin-oh wait. If SE puts sam WSD piece as the legs, there will be rage. All of our high WSD armor pieces (ambu, AF+3) is already on legs. Body makes the most sense given overwhelm, but my trust in SE is not very high on this. So again I say inb4 sam's WSD is legs making us the only job with 1 WSD piece.

Sure, if you're multi-stepping use Evis. Otherwise Rudra's damage potential far outweighs it.

In most situations the difference between Evis and Rudra's shouldn't matter or you should be multi-stepping.

We have basically zero information on this month's ambuscade. Wait until we have information rather than clueless speculation.

With basically perfect gear for both WSs, I get about 40% superior damage with Rudra, so I can't agree with the difference not mattering.

You're holding tp too long if you see that much more damage and/or your evis set isn't as bis as you think it is
