Might of the Frozen Wastes is back

And it dipping into all that now (for both weapons mind you because masterfrost isnt back and should stay dead) its only 10% more damage over DW with obliterate. I can see the problem, can you?

It is great that they made the changes with KM so it finally scales with mastery (and razorice).

Show me some numbers from in the game that support this.

Forget it, If you check kellestes character youll see they dont actually play their dk

Dont like math?

Math is good, you can remove variables that can change. Not to mention I would need beta to do so.

Lets take 1000 damage as a base for Obliterate before Might and KM procs. That means its 1250 for 2h and 1000 for DW. A crit would be 2500 and 2000, KM would be 2500 for 2h and 2300 for DW which is an 8.3% difference. This is assuming mastery is at 0, versatility is at 0, no str procs or anything else.

I do like math! I used to teach math, before I became a software developer.

If you need the beta to get the real numbers then wait until someone who does have it shows them.

Don’t make up numbers and claim them as “the truth”

Thats what you got out of that?

On a somewhat related note
is it me or is there a damage delay/lag with the new Obliterate 2H animation?

What I got out of it is that you are making an unfair comparison with your oversimplified example.

the PTR was so laggy, I am not sure I could have determined that haha

No, its assuming that gear is equal so you are only taking the 25% damage increase into account as well as Razorice that DW will always have.

and what if 2H has razorice?

Then it would be a greater % difference on KM obliterates


And what if I take the Obliteration talent vs another one?
How much damage does obliterate do overall? (is the 60-70% mentioned above enough to make up the difference?)

Depends on a ton of variables, but has anyone even looked at the % breakdown of DW? Or is everyone just looking at 2h because of the “new” update?

exactly


Math is fun.

Exactly what? You were asking for me to basically simulate a fight.

Exactly.

Your oversimplified, weighted comparison above does not cut it in my opinion.

So, why not wait for someone with the beta to actually test this out and see? I.e. “simulate a fight”

What was oversimplified?

Someone like Bicepspump, who already explained in extensive detail how and why this “10%” number they keep haphazardly repeating is just unadulterated fake news.
