It looks like if the numbers hold true and/or STWF doesn't go live fighters are looking at 110% 88% for their final attack rate. Ranger Tempests stand at 105 105% (pretty nice deal). Who lost more attacks? The ranger tempest or Fighter from pre/post nerf.
Double Strike only applies to a main hand attacks
At a base 105/105 per minute while hastedQuote:

Using this as a reference: http://www.heartofiowa.net/~jeff_git...tackrates.html
On live we have:
Tempest IIIs
Main: 114
Off: 142 (I've seen 137 reported as well)
256 attacks/minute (Looses 41 attacks/minute)
Pallys and Fighters (zeal and capstone)
Main: 114
Off: 114
228 attacks/minute (Looses 29 attacks/minute)
Rangers lost more attacks.
and doublestrike attacks trigger offhand attacksQuote:

I have tested it and it appears that the second attack in the double strike does not proc offhand attacks. It also appears that the double strike only happens on the first attack in the chain if at all, and always a mainhand attack.Quote:

No it shouldn't if the double strike doesn't proc the offhand then there will be an output loss of 8% for pure fighters and 10% for rangers in terms of damage. Just keeps looking worse and worse everyday.Quote:

the pal14/ranger6 will have 110%/90%, where do you get the extra 10% doublestrike from?Quote:

tempest I is only +10% offhandQuote:

Cool cool, just read through it again on Eladrin's post also. Well, 90% off hand proc + 10% double strike still sounds pretty good. Right now I generally land double smites on 3/4 or so attempts (gets rough to time with lag). Looks like I'll have around a 9% chance of landing a triple smite.Quote:
