Your 'glaive has better potential stats which would make the evident increase in killing speeds, etc. If you were to cube the psb to the same potential stat's you'd see that the psb'd be kicking the 'glaive in the butt. 20 att<6% attack because it takes into account your total attack. Keep the glaive though because you spent so much effort on cubing it and because you [b]think[/b] and let someone more knowledgeable buy the psb.

The potential is simply much better on the glaive, a true test is one where there are control variables. The glaive's potential doesn't match the PSB's potential so it isn't a fair test immediately. If you want to conduct a true experiment you must have some control variables; this applies in any experiment whether it be testing the rate of photosynthesis or testing out the DPM of two weapons. If you want to carry out a true test, pit a 149 attack PSB against a 152 att glaive (both 50 att above average), the PSB should win by a landslide. You'd get similar results with a clean PSB and a clean arcglaive as well.

By the way, those are some very nice weapons. I would keep them both, when you have speed infusion the arcglaive will be unbeatable. Also try and cube the PSB to have better potential and use it for training. Those are both dream weapons for any aran or drk.

[quote=Elecktique]We already know the answer. We aren't 'smart and right'. We're educated. A 102 att clean glave will not out damage a 99 att purple board. If the board was 156 att with 60% PDR and 6% att she wouldn't have made this thread. (or if the glaive had a 20 att pot and was 149 att).[/quote]

[quote=Yaaarghly]Well I mean, the glaive does pretty much ignore all enemy def... I say keep the glaive for bossing/ lhc then use the psb for training (after lhc gets nerfed)[/quote]

LHC doesn't get nerfed for another half a year though...
Jump =/= Chaos.

[quote=nightdrks]maybe thats for an aran but not for a Drk[/quote]
He speaks the truth.

Which is why I always say:
PSB = DrK
Arcglaive = Aran

But then again your 'Glaive has a better pot lmao.

[quote=oOpoleyOo]i mean i've done 2 timed z runs on each
glaive won by 15 mins each time[/quote]

That's because of the 60% PDR LOL.
Give it to a trusted Dark Knight and let them compare. They can use Sacrifice (which eliminates the PDR for both) and test it.

I highly doubt the glaive was 15 min faster btw. Sounds biased imo.

Your damage may be better, but I think your overall DPM would be better with the PSB.
