Apperantly i have been miss lead because this is like my first or second time on this website and ive found A LOT of good info but it seems that everyone wants less delay...i have been told that the more delay....the more DPS....because the higher the delay the higher it crits or something along those lines....Thats why i use the Nathsar Shortsword out of CoA instead of the Cartiocutter.....any opinions on this....do i want less or more delay for more DPS...as a lvl 80 zerker...im not worried about tanking

High delay is good but the CC is just a better quality of a weapon over NSS.

Higher delay is better... you don't want to get absurd (e.g. if you find a 12 sec delay weapon), but 4-6 sec delay is best. The reason for that is 1) your ripostes will hit harder, and 2) your combat arts delay your autoattack, so if you delay an autoattack by .5 of a second, and you're using a 2.0 delay weapon hasted down to 1.0, that's 50% of its delay, but if you were using NSS hasted to 3.0, that would be only 16% of its delay.

Between NSS and CC, they are both pretty close for a buckler spec'd warrior (CC might be slightly better, but nothing worth worrying about), but for a tower warrior, CC is definitely better. Five double attack will make a buckler zerker hit (170/1.65)% (= 3%) harder with autoattack, whereas 5 DA for a tower zerker will make their autoattack hit 5% harder.
