1st off be nice, this is my 1st thread

in this thread i'm trying to answer the questions man asked since the dawn of time: sin or war (dps wise)
ill be using the 2 biggest DPS powerhouses:
D-slasher
vs.

Moebius/DB

on the master of damage here's: my results:
War:

Sin:

14weapon mastery,15^50, vamp for both (sin damge would even be higher, but Master of damage doesn't add DW to damage.)

so...
War pro's: Able to take Whirlwind Attack/Brawling Headbutt. Infinite "SY!". Doesn't rely on enchantments.

Sin pro's: No downtime. AoE. Better armor due to crit agility. DW. more mobility b/c no flail.

IMO: sin wins

PvE: depends, usually Sin
PvP: definitely War

aesthetic · May 03, 2008, 10:32 PM // 22:32

wars are always better in pvp for pressure but i like sinspliting (dead atm) and BB sin spiking

RavagerOfDreams · May 03, 2008, 10:33 PM // 22:33

^what metroid said

cept that war and sin are equal in pve

not sure on your exact builds but meh...
DPS wise Sin is probably higher than Warrior but the problem is that Sins dont have the armor to stay at the front line and keep hacking squishies.
therefore Sins suck at pressure(cant absorb damage) while Warriors can.
also, DSlasher has DW too, what are you smokin' there pal? ever heard of Sever+Gash? staple of every sword build...

I suspect a few rounds of discussion and then a lock cause apples and oranges are both good and different,

These threads only start flame wars; its really just personal preference and experience with either class. And I only said sins could be better in PvE, because they look cooler :3

Sin has 34seconds of moar damage in the picture.

um sorry, but warriors trump all with infinate knocklock, and invinicible party though SY. even with crit agility sins have almost 100 armour, warrrios have 80 vs elemental, and 116 against physical, also more health via shield.

warrior wins.

FlamingMetroid · May 03, 2008, 10:42 PM // 22:42

time to farm some +1s while people flame, despite the fact that the question has already been answered.

RavagerOfDreams · May 03, 2008, 10:44 PM // 22:44

the question has been answered

but no1 listens

this must be the 3rd war vrs sin thread in 2 months?

Crom The Pale · May 03, 2008, 10:46 PM // 22:46

Your numbers are a bit off from mine.

FlamingMetroid · May 03, 2008, 10:48 PM // 22:48

question's been answered

RavagerOfDreams · May 03, 2008, 10:49 PM // 22:49

haikus are cool

but sometimes they are confusing

refrigerator

(+1)

wonder which mod will get here first

snaek · May 03, 2008, 10:53 PM // 22:53

dslash is used to pump out sy

moebius is used for dmg only really

so while u may be doin an extra +20-30 dps on ur sin...
the war is keepin everyone alive at teh same time while doin dps

FlamingMetroid · May 03, 2008, 10:57 PM // 22:57

answered question has been answered
and i herd sins could use SY! too

aesthetic · May 03, 2008, 10:59 PM // 22:59

SY! is easy to put up on moebius. to crom:were you using 14 sword vamp?i didn't use enraging but that shouldn't be much difference.
