THF stats

[gott_ist_tot]

Are there any calculations as to what exactly THF/ITHF/GTHF does? Guess the info I'm trying to dig up would ideally be a percentile DPS increase of a I/G/THF warrior over a featless one, attacking one target only. Assuming standing still in place. TIA.

If your attacking one mob you should be twitching not standing still. Standing still with GTHF would reduce your DPS rather than increase it.

you get zero glancing blows while moving.

The following changes have been made to combat for better game performance and balance:

• Attacks with two handed weapons performed while moving no longer perform Glancing Blows

See here

The Greatest thing (about the still bugged glancing blows, was GTHF was the feat that kind of pulled it all together)

I took off all my THF feats to play with it, I have just put them all back on and am seeing for myself the increase/decrease in dps

there have been dps calculations that moving now lowers your dps, versus before when the twitch vastly improved it.

yes, I am sad for our loss as I play almost all THF toons (exception --> twf ranger)

The question is, whether attack speed gained by twitching increases DPS output more than glancing blows (still talking about attacking one mob).

The matter I'm trying to poke is: what numbers are hidden behind "Allows you to make additional glancing blow attacks" flavor text on each of THF feats, and what it means DPS-wise. How much damage would deal un-boosted otherwise class (say, cleric) with, and without THF feats.

Link me the calcs please.

Link me the calcs please.

its in that big "U5 killed TWF" thread

the result was that standing still with GTHF gives more dps then twitching unless you got eSoS and that twf is still ahead of thf

it now basicly is: to i want more damage and spend 3 feats for that or am i fine with less damage but save 3 feats

Link me the calcs please.

hope someone can do this

*at work, don't have bookmarks*

I will grab them when I get home if no one has linked them


I did a quick google search trying to find it, not sure if this is the right one.

scroll down, he has more calculations in other posts


***Regardless***
it's fairly obvious that no glancing blows is less dps than some glancing blows (I am one to NOT stand still, the FPS in me won't allow it)
