Sw vs Ra Weapon

Considering both are the same attack speed which one is better? They both have the included ignore def and boss dmg. I already hat/top/bott for the RA but nothing for the SW.
Thanks!

Fafnir is better if you have 3b+ to buy the weapons in the first place. If you can't afford the weapons then just stick with SW as it's a cheap alternative. 3 piece RA is good enough for the 50 attack bonus. Obviously if you can afford 3b+ weapons then go with fafnir.

fafnir is better because you can also use tyrant equips.
RA and SW both give 30% boss on their weapons. i would get RA to finish the set.

Root abyss if you're not a thief.
sw if you can afford most of the set

You should state what job you are because even though everyone here says RA equips are worth it/cheaper, if the weapon you need is a Fafnir Damacus, you're gonna have to cough up blood for the money and search for a needle in a haystack to find one.

[quote=ZetsubouMark]If you are planning to use it as an end-game weapon; you would benefit from the RA weapon; rather the SW weapon. The RA 4 set effect gives you an additional 30% boss damage, with your already 30% boss damage just by equipping the weapon.[/quote]
Jesus Crust all of those unnecessary semicolons.

RA is much cheaper right now, you get more for fewer equips, 30% boss <3, and only the weapons are expensive(and deflating a ton)
+ if you already have the 3 set for RA< definitely do RA

RA because the set effect. An extra 30% Boss is nothing to laugh at.

Plus, SW is completely untradeable after equipping.

ra weapon is better b/c of the tradeability
sw is only good if you have at least 4 set.

Fafnirs have 10 slots (hammered) and SW has 9 slots (hammered).
