    I'll help you out. Using only raw dmg and ignoring elemental

    Knight shield specialist is 25%*311+11aug/32 vs warrior 85%*169+11/24

    I'm on my phone and I don't want to use the brackets for the right equation but knight ratio comes out to 12.57 after aa meanwhile the warrior weapon comes out to 13.87

    My math could be wrong I haven't done these calculations in a long time.

    5 warriors (3 being conveniently anonymous) keep crying about how life is unfair now they aren't way ahead of knights for tanking, based on class descriptions of 1999 (a game that no longer exists given all the changes that happen) and parent class/hybrid things from that same era. Some other people (including some knights but not all) still bother replying for some reason, like it's going to bring some of the 5 warriors back to reason or something like that.

    Let me help you shiftie. Do you feel that knights should mitigate the same as warriors AND also out dps them? Is that what your idea of "balanced" is. Keeping in mind warriors only generate weapon damage, warriors do not cast nukes.

    What cant answer the weapon riddle?
  5. shiftie Augur

    I answered it for him. His tail is too far between his legs for being so laughably wrong on weapon ratio and feeling slighted he doesn't have the knight 1her. I'll happily exchange my ratio for their aa if it weren't for the need to thread spells between swings. Which is the reason our dmg is so high in the first place because we are swinging much much slower overall.

    But it takes a modicum of understanding and honesty to have that conversation. I won't even trouble his pretty head with hhe calculations.

    Every couple of years some newbie gets on a rant about knight weapon dmg tables. I guess it was his turn.

    No that's why he already jumped to the next fail boat argument.
  7. Mistatk Augur


    Thats bull. I'm not gonna link it all but there is a knight only 2h that is a better ratio then any warrior weapons. Talk to me about ISS and 2h weapons?
  8. shiftie Augur


    do you even understand how eq works at all?

    Such BS. I'm not into any next topic. Knights out DPS warriors. Say 1 time you don't believe that, and i will then concede I was wrong. Say for example, in my raids, warriors normaly out parse SK, and I will say ok, you were right I was wrong. In fact, give warrior Harm touch and life taps, since were all going to mitigate the same.
  10. Warpeace Augur

    No he answered it for you. You don't appear to understand how weapon ratios affect their intended classes. Not just the JELLY factor of my ratio is better than yours.
  11. Mistatk Augur

    As I said. Again. Say one time, that you believe warriors normaly out parse SK in raids, and I will concede. Don't dance around it. Don't change the topic. Say, warriors are higher dps class then SK.

    These last 2 pages have been the best yet! :D

    No you just bounce around trying any and every Knights are better or to close to Warriors excuse. Bringing weapon ratio into this is a screaming you have no clue.
  14. Mistatk Augur

    Of course nothing to say. Because the whole idea of Warriors and Hybrids Mitigating the same is the failboat.

    Warriors are not supposed to Out DPS SK's. And obviously Warriors outdps Paladins.
  16. Mistatk Augur

    Be HONEST just one time. Say Warriors are better DPS over all then Shadow knights. Since they mitigate the same now. Say it?
  17. Mistatk Augur

    So, they need the better ratio weapons because with out it, they would'nt do MORE dps then warriors with ISS? ok, now i get what your saying. I wasn't looking at it like knights should mitigate the same, have spells, and out damage warriors. Now you made it more clear, yeah i was wrong and the weapon ratio thing cuz i thought that was for balance.
  18. Warpeace Augur

    Your funny Honesty.... and you don't understand why warriors don't get Knight ratio weapons. Your the person that brought them up to try and validate your complaint.

    Admit you were wrong with that poor argument.

    I guess Warrior DPS sucks so bad because they are all standing around doing nothing so they can tank next.
