What if these weapons ARE the new relic/emp/mythic type weapons?
But instead of fancy weaponskills and aftermaths etc, they just have sick base dmg?
Because so far very few of them are weapons that really benefit from raw base damage; unless I missed a polearm for Drakesbane?
There is
so much AGI gear for Exen that dagger base damage isn't that big a deal and such compared to low delay for TP gain, neh?
Though Entropy is good, it'd take a
ridiculous Scythe to make Guillotine relevant again, so once again the high mod of a merit WS makes the base damage increase less than stellar.
Same goes for GS: OAT thrives because of the high mod on Resolution.
Stuff like that.
This pretty much leaves Sword and Polearm lacking a high mod WS that older WS with a raw base damage weapon could be appealing.
