slashers have a better proc to make up for the crushers raw DPS as i said before crushers slashers and piercers all even out once you take the procs and delays into account

And i used to make blank enchants the old fashion way so you are talking about stuff you dont know also.

crushers are not better due to the aura nerf you get to use to mess up the whole wepon proc *smash* and what dps are you comparing with? which wepons. make the calculation on the same level of wepons.

the calculations were made of the same level power in the thread about piercer DPS started by poopoo

crushers do have a higher DPS

i was comparing 94 slasher and 94 crusher and last time i checked Mobs dont have anti stun auras

Plus i have to use 2 anti stuns and a Sloth to face a Crusher while when facing a slasher i can use a Sloth, a thorns and a reflect making my dps lower in order to accomodate for the stuns

Pallys cant even get their bonus if they use an anti stun also (atleast not with a full thorns and reflect cause sloth is the best PvP aura) Anyday i would switch my proc with the Crush one or the pierce one

whats the need for 2 antistuns? use thorns antistun and sloth and your DPS takes a minimal change

Well i used to use 2 because against the 59 crushers BOTH!!!! anti stuns didnt even last the entire fight because of the low delay and the epic proc. But also i use 2 now because even with Gem Handling lvl 85 i can go into combat with 1 aura or even none sometimes. So using 2 is kinda like a gurantee of atleast having 1 up cause without it i easily get owned. alot can happen when you are stunned for 4 seconds.

the topic is more for the enchanting issue then the slash vs. crush arguement and anyway they got their own ups and downs

[Lantash]

My opinion on this is very simple - its a way of eliminating possible competition in the nearest future and protecting their investment:
Get to the top asap with relative little effort -> report as a bug -> enjoy being one of few top notch enchanters for LOOONG time...

To make it worse getting 5 TCs for "reporting" something that has been WIDELY known is just outrageous...

even I who is not lvling enchanting knew this...

PS
Those who are calling this threat a "whining" one probably have enchanting also at high lvls by doing this

ok here's my 2 cents worth.

there are other exploits that haven't been fixed and allow to stand when they are clearly abused by one and all when possible.

eg traveling with some one to gain exp in adventuring skills..this was reported many a time and was left as is..let's see.. exploit yes bug no.

using 2 silks which are the most common resoource in the game to make stones and gain exp..let's see..exploit in a way yes..bug in a way no.

there are other exxploit that have been posted and left alone. i think this one should be left as it was. since it is a bug as well reduce the exp from silks in enchanting by 50%.

we are going to end up with an AH with pages and pages of silks just sitting there. people using these for enchanting took a great amount of these out of the game.
