hi, im not trying to argue with anyone but,
when you shoot an m16 with a grenade launcher, well, i think you want to know that when you pull the trigger, bullets will come out. and when you pull the trigger for the greanade launcher, you dont want to have a water balloon or a stream of bear repellant coming out, you want a freeking grenade to come out hehe..
Serious pvpers cant be depending on the scimmy to put out an AI or a bleed or a feint, randomly.
How devastating is a 25ssi katana with hit spell and hld, AI AI AI ing you all in 5 seconds or less?
Compared to a bleed, feint and another bleed from the randomnly generated scimmy?
The hit area attack is BAD mojo, if you are blue and in yew, you will flag on all the reds and then you cant run to GZ or house hide if you were the one who was originally flagged on.
For the whirlwind attack, a battle axe is much better, higher base damage equals higher damage to the mob.
JMO, but i think its a great PVM wep, as I have several from when I was doing spawns and such, i ahve one with ML, LL and dispell, ssi, it was perfect for the revs and the spawn from the DF
and its a great necro mage weapon with the sc,magewep, dci properties.
Please note, I havent PVM in 3 years, so im pretty sure alot has changed.
