[quote=daniel3b]yeah but there's still no better feeling than jabbing your spear as fast as you can[/quote]
i know, i have been at it everyday for the past 5 years.
but whiping it around is cool too
yeah but there's still no better feeling than jabbing your spear as fast as you can
Would be awesome if it applied to sac as well lol.
and yeah we're now faster than spears at... stabbing. Oh, the irony.
@djp2313: Alright thanks.
incredible, so now polearms are faster at crusher than spears? beaten at their own game, wow.
There's no diff for sacrifice and fury right?(just out of curiosity)
[quote=djp2313]So yeah, impaler is definitely slower than the psb. But si still increases psb higher. So it can't be fast (4) but its still faster than the impaler. Perhaps the impaler was slowed down?
Maybe we have something different with pas vs spears?
I don't know -- my mind is blown[/quote]
maybe we have a fast 5.5 in front of us? i have a GSB, which supposedly has the same speed that a PSB, so, shall we do some tests or something?

the impaler wasnt slown down either, it's definitely faster than a sky ski.
i cant believe you actually doubted me david I thought we had something... something special .
in all seriousness - what atk do you use to test ?
[quote=zgtaf]okay steve you sick bastart. That last sentence is messed up.[/quote]
he's handling mines right now as we speak... no lie.
[quote=chickenpoodl]L> darknightr in game. i have been carrying your impaler.[/quote]
okay steve you sick bastart. That last sentence is messed up.
L> darknightr in game. i have been carrying your impaler.
i am confused, yet with a great interest *goes off for a labcoat*
[quote=djp2313]How sad is it that I'd actually need an impaler in order to try it myself. L > impaler
I think you both are seeing the difference between a spear and a pa. Have you actually timed anything? Have you compared a psb to a super snowboard?
Going off feel has been providing false theories since the beginning of maple. Give me some hardcore stats.
Data can be deceiving to the viewer, it won't lie however.[/quote]
we did indeed time it with an impaler and with a psb - the psb had more hits per minute. I don't know the exact numbers though, you'd have to ask steve for that.
i tried switching from different alien weapons, only time booster didn't cancel was when i switched with a spear with the same name, all the other times, it canceled
My booster cancels when I switch from pinaka to Alchupiz
i'll try it in a few hours i guess, i have a crapload of weapons anyways.
[quote=djp2313]The main problem I have with this is that the fast 5 and fast 4 rankings are in the data. It's as simple as looking at it. PSB is fast 5.
Thanks for nothing Joe![/quote]
Thanks for believing in me Andy, I'm sure it's not just wishful thinking! There really IS a difference.
@david: What about I let you try for yourself - a psb vs. an impaler, and you'll notice the difference for yourself The data can lie.
@Ed: Post-BB booster only cancels if you wear a weapon of a different weapon speed - maybe of a different weapon kind as well, I'll need to try that out.
hrmm i neever tired the weapon switching enough.
i do knnow that impaler to impaler didn't cancel lol.
however using the psb and imapler definitely, theres a speed difference. not joking.
B> new spear.
i blew up my 138atk, 30%boss, 6% TD ski lol. got greedy and went for a 3rd star for some silly reason.
and no i'm not gonna pot the 27/141 ski. lol
Silly Joe, Fast 4 is for heroes!
[quote=djp2313]I thought they were fast 5 o.O[/quote]
so did I o.o but then I tried equipping an impaler (which is fast 5). PSB was noticeably faster. And Steve proved it for sure:
You know how whenever you equip a weapon of different speed, booster cancels itself ? Well, if you equip an impaler, use booster, then equip a PSB, the booster gets cancelled :b
not as far as I know o.o
