Yesterday Milla told me about some damage tests she did with her +9 Diamond Sword, +8 SLS and Asword. She told me that her +8 SLS did more damage in every single (PvP) test they did! No way, I said - SLS is 8/12 base while DS is 14/12 base, so a +9 DS should easily out perform a +8 SLS in PvP...
Today we repeated the test, this time with +9 Diamond Sword, +8 Silver Long Sword and +8 Ori-Dagger - to my surprise, both the SLS and Ori-Dagger out damaged the +9 DS in every single sequence by roughly 100HP!!
We tried with full AC and with only -2AC, same result, the +9 DS doesn't nearly as much damage as the SLS or Ori-Dagger!
Is the Diamond Sword bugged?
Well that goes back to what
Well that goes back to what Feilds of love said. THe Diamond sword is junk. It was a nice thought but is worthless.

Looks to me like its bugged.
Looks to me like its bugged. There is no way that a +9 sword with 14/12 base damage does 100HP less damage per 15 hits than a +8 sword with 8/12 base damage in PvP.
only thing i can figure was
only thing i can figure was someone weapon breaked the DS. cause my DS even when it was +7 crushed my +9sls. Asword beats all as far as damage goes tho...
That was my first thought
That was my first thought too but the sword is fine. Can you do some PvP damage tests too, please?
ill test and reply in a few
ill test and reply in a few
sorry took so long. trash
sorry took so long. trash talked some loser on dep then went out shopping with gf.....
umm, from my tests. just str/dex/bless only. I was in the range of 18-23 a hit with +9sls..... using +9d-sword. I was in the range of 20-32.... dsword's damage seemed kinda low. but then started doing nice rolls so.... nonetheless. Still way better than 9sls.... i did no duels testing. just damage per hit. ds seemed to be doing more
Thanks for the info. We
Thanks for the info. We found the reason for the low damage. The sword was indeed damaged and Milla was running around with it forever already x.x
Must have been damaged during the Doom Quest, months ago - LOL!
wow... just... wow. P.S>
wow... just... wow.
P.S> diamond sword doesn' t break on hardskin mobs, he either had weapon break cast on him, or was swinging at a knight with bounce attack cast, to have broken diamon sword.

Diamond is a great thing
Diamond is a great thing that is very hard.But I don't Know about demage of diamond.how it can check??
I've found the Diamond Sword
I've found the Diamond Sword to be a steady improvement for a royal at level 50 compared to any other available sword. The a-sword can yield greater results but given that our royal is usually a secondary source and one of my brothers and I both bring burst damage to the table with his k-edo and my dk sword, we want something more consistent in our group dynamic.
The diamond sword finally brought my +9b-kat that my dad was using to rest... I miss that sword, even if I have upgraded. lol There are a history of kills with it.
The only weapon change I see needed for a royal right now is to allow them to use a rapier. It's the most nobelesque weapon in the game...
crystal dagger is ALMOST the
crystal dagger is ALMOST the same as rap hehe.... but next episode will be way better.
and yah. diamond sword is by far the best sword in game for a lvl 50+ royal.... but as u know how i feel... at higher lvls, asword crushes it. but i do use my d-sword against 70+ knights and seem to fair pretty well damn well. my only answer is that i need to hit 71 now to get rid of it and go back to asword for them :).
The thing that makes it so
The thing that makes it so good, is that its free, just takes a couple days to farm up quite a few of 'em so making a +9 or 10 is very cheap, your basically just paying for the scrolls... at +7 it wouldn't be as good as asword, at +10, its better though. Not as random though, and random is rly what your going for in PvP.... for average dmg over extended time its better though, and is the best hardskin weapon in game (debatably, SoF is very good as well.)
P.S> ori dagger is same small dmg as rap and better large mob dmg, and crystal dagger is better small dmg (ori dagger 7/7 +2dmg ~ avg 6/6 per hit, crystal 10/4 +1dmg ~ avg 6.5/3.5 per hit, rap 11/6 ~ avg 6/3.5 per hit), his point was that rapier is traditionally a weapon of royalty, so it is rather ironic that royals can't use it here hehe.

A +10 diamond sword will
A +10 diamond sword will average 17.5 damage, and an a-sword will average 18. The consistency is really on a mop to mop basis, as the longer you hunt, the more the swords will reach their average.
A +10 is also a bit frustrating to make, we went through like 7 +9's to no avail, 3 of them being given second chances at. On odds, with 10 rolls, we should've gotten 2 already. lol
+10 diamond sword is +7 hit
+10 diamond sword is +7 hit as well, not counting the +hit and ER from the +2dex. Asword is +5 hit.
the ER from the 2 dex alone is by far worth more than the avg 0.5dmg differance, not to mention the diferance in +hit closes any dmg diferance gap.
