Rune chopper was cheap and available to just about everyone, and the gear builds were very similar. The difference was, K club maxed out at about 270ish a hit (I was Mithra with 8/8 HP merits so HP wasn't as high as Galka) while Rune chopper could easily top 400+ per hit, making it much more powerful than K club zerg. Not to mention the extra haste you got just from having Rune Chopper equipped.

Note: I quit when the cap was still 75 so the above info is definitely not still true.
Actually Rune CHopper was used before a DRK received Bahamuts Zaghnal, BZ was just barely under KC in all actuality when it came to amount of DMG put out before SE wore off.

And when people bitch about multi-hit weapons, they apparently never played in end game, they were extremely powerful against non HNM mobs, but who really cared about OPness in parties? If you want to complain about that, then complain about SAMs.

DRKs may have had an edge with KC with SE, but, see how long you live when you go all out and you hit the hate cap faster than the tanks.
