Flame Sergeant's Spear VS Ifrit's Harpoon

[Narctiss]

So it sounds like Ifrit's Harpoon may excel slightly in damage, but Garuda's Beak gives +25 Acc., opening opportunities to slot ATK/STR/PIE in other slots to make up for it.

Don't necessarily base your weapon/gear set based upon that post..

Deli said they did a minimal amount of testing, have no parse results to show from it and said he used the same gear set for both (the main thing was to try and see about stat caps and how DPS/base damage affect you, yet the best way to test this would be if Deli changed his setup depending on the weapon, e.g. Electrum Gorget +1 for Garudas, Explorer's Choker for Ifrits). Also mentioning that stat caps are too far from him.

So yeh... Read the full info on the thread to base your choices from that. Not Deli's post. XD

Wasn't quite basing it on his post. I know from my own experience that Garuda's Beak's WS damage seems to be on par or slightly better than Ifrit's Harpoon. Compared DPS and they seemed to be on par with one another, Garuda sometimes slightly ahead. I tested this on Princess. I didn't go far enough to make a solid conclusion, but I think DRG's are fine with either weapon.
