[IMPLEMENTED] Type 16 Damage Augs?

[Mojak]

Hey gang, I reported this and was told to ask the general population for an answer.

I recently got a 2handed sword out of VP, and noticed it had a type 8 and type 16 aug slot. Upon investigating the alla clone here I found that there werent any high damage type 16 augs. (skip to the TLDR if you dont want to read all the gibberish in between)

My old 2hander (which the game magically deleted while using the bandolier) was the Rod of Frozen Power (webtools/items.php?id=120045). It has Type 4 and a Type 8 aug slots. I had placed the Sharp Froglok Eye (webtools/items.php?id=17199) in the type 4 and the Claw of the Arbitor (webtools/items.php?id=7969) in the type 8 slot.

As you can imagine the increased damage on these augs, plus the 3 lure procs now on it made this weapon fairly powerful for its tier and ease of access to get.

The combined damage from the weapon + 2 augs is 151+20+25 which comes out to 196/35.

Now, my new weapon which is from VP: Aged Frozen Zweihander (webtools/items.php?id=69420)

It has a Type 8, and Type 16 Slot. The type 8 is all well and good.. can get another Claw of the Arbitor, or better for it... Here is the bad part. I cant find a decent +dmg type 16 aug. The highest + damage I've found is +5 dmg. So lets take the weapon damage of 155 + 25 + 5 = 175/40

Am I missing something, or does a Tier 5 weapon with a Tier 2 Aug, and Tier 0 Aug out damage a Tier 6 Weapon with Tier 2 Aug and Tier 6 aug? Seems to be some re-balancing needed there.


Also can someone point me in the direction of the post that has the Dual wield vs 2hand parses in it? I cant seem to find it, but keep hearing that dual wield out dps's 2hand, but my own parses had me averaging 3200 dps from the front using my 2hander (that got deleted by the game) and 1700 dps from the front with my current Xegony MH/Sharp blade of hate offhand.


TLDR - Are there better type 16 dmg augs than the 5 damage ones I found, and where is the dual wield vs 2hand parse thread?

There's only one good type 16 weapon aug for 2handers. It's webtools/items.php?id=121284 and it drops in Halls of Honor (t8). The rest are pretty weak and 1h-centric as far as 2h is concerned.

You can always donate for some killer weapon augs, too. That would solve your problem for sure.

Also depends on your class. If you are a DPS class and are looking for straight dmg it is slim picking.

For a tank class I have my eye on webtools/items.php?id=121433 for my type 16 because of the AC. Now if it would just drop.

I've book marked this and will take a look next week and see what I can do

yeah I'm speaking from a straight dps stance. I dont always tank on our raids, so I need some low threat weapon that does good dps.

I do hope to one day have a 2hander I can tank with, but taking the fact that you can have 2 weapons with 3 threat/life procs on each that proc like machine guns, they cant compare to the threat of a 2hander yet (unless 2handers have a proc mod on them I dont know about). I do miss my blade of war

see ya'll in game

Went through and added a few new 2H DMG augments this morning.

These will be in the changelog for the next reboot.

o Claw of The Junal received a damage increase to 38, AC increase to 50 and is now useable in slots 8,16,17, and 18.
o Dark Fang of the Blood Drinker is now usable in slots 8,16,17 and 18.
o Added Stone of Hoshkar to Hoshkar's loot table in Veeshan's Peak.
o Added Claw of the Enraged to Zi`Thuuli's loot table in Dreadspire.
o Added Stone of Oligrath to Oligrath's loot table in Nadox.
o Added Fang of Seravince to Seravince's loot table in Halls of Honor.

Like Definition of Power, it would be nice if the two hander damage augs that drop in Nadox, DSK2 etc. would fit into the 1HS donors that replace the Epic 2.0s of SK and Pallys.

[Vaion]

That's not possible due to restrictions set by the code to prevent 2H augs from going into non-2H weapons.

If you choose to donate for the SK/Pal donor you will be limited to either weapon only or 1H augs.
