@above: Highlight it as if you were copy/paste something. Just don't click out of it until you are done.

 The Fireheart Vanguard's special just seems super weak. Like, I've been using it for a little while now and I've not even once seen it do more than an FO armor attack, even though its damage otherwise seems normal. It seems to have a 20-25% rate, which would means its special should be roughly twice a normal attack's strength. Is it supposed to have more hits or was the damage not formatted right?

 @Uskius
Taken from the Master List of Game Formulae: "Theoretical Weapon Special Advantage: *(1 + 0.1/Proc) (Proc is the weapon special rate. For the default 20% rate, the multiplier is 1 + 0.1/0.2 = 1.5. The exact effect is different because weapon specials typically ignore player stats and will do extra base/random damage to compensate.)"

It's highly likely that you have some boosts on your normal attacks that do not apply to the weapon special, which is why it seems so weak relatively. Modern weapon-skill like specials do gain these boosts, which is why they may seem stronger.

 ^Was aware of that. Testing it right now without any boosting miscs, pets, or armor and yup, the special has been outdamaged by the armor every single time, when if that formula is correct it should at the very least be doing the same damage on some occasions. :| Like, I'm seeing double digit damage from the special. It's doing an average of 150-200 damage each proc while armor attacks are doing at least 270. I do have lower DEX right now, but if specials really don't take stats into account then that shouldn't be part of the issue. -_- I think I'll just avoid weapons with special attacks and especially pure damage ones from now on.

As my dad says sometimes, "If I had a brain I'd be dangerous." I somehow accidentally bought the level 75 version of the weapon. Ignore my previous posts about the special damage.
