What's you method of play?

[arlee]

Sorry to burst your bubble but I've tested these as i have a set for farming (because i can repair myself) and a pair of jade hora, the jade hora consistently deals more damage on both weaker mobs and the world nms

From what i can tell is the weapon % simply converts the base damage type to another
So if you use an attack from gladiator that says slashing, it still deals blunt if you're a pug using boarskin himantes
Now, if you were to use bahnaks, then you should see some of that slashing type damage
Why they specify a damage type for the attacks, and the weapons is beyond me, unless it was another planned but unimplemented feature

sorry to say but Pseudo is right, from my testing on reg mobs my boarskin+1 will out dmg any other knuckle in game
but as said already the peiste or jade will do more dmg on NMs

not sure if you are correct about the weapon% from what I;ve been told the weaponskill dmg type is constant. So using your example a pug with boarskins doing a glad weaponskill that says slashing will do slashing dmg even though he is using a blunt weapon.
