Subject: Re: 1H Slashing Magical Weapon List - Read and comment


Question about your formula for dps... And maybe it's a question about
damage in general... : )

(damage*2)+1 Where'd you get the *2? Doesn't STR get factored in there
somewhere? I am extremelly curious about this as I am probably over
obsessive about Stats. : )

If someone could break down how my Mino Axe with a damage of 8 does 18 max
damage for me, I'd appreciate it. :)

I have a base strength of 95, going as high as 112 with buffs and equip.
