The longer delay you have, the more likely you are to proc normalized procs. Again, the disadvantage is nullified by the advantage.

And same goes for the pure autoattack aspect. A miss with a long delay weapon is more lost damage than a miss with a shorter delay one, but in turn the shorter delay one swings more often and thus misses more often. Once again, the disadvantage is perfectly nullified by the corresponding advantage.
Perfectly nullified? I doubt that...

As perfectly as 1 - 1 = 0.

That's why my dps increases a shit ton when I am hasted, Chix. By your logic my dps should normalize around hits, misses and procs.

Where you pull that BS from anyway?

if you have read around a bit you know that after lvl 70 no swash would use the fencing line so I guess you are still levelin up, in this case yes prolly you wanna try a high delay weap, maybe 6 sec if you are farming trash quest mobs.

dual wielding does not require all that math, the choice is much simpler: I time my CAs in between AA like most of the swashes -> offhand delay must match primary weap.
Someone is not using the mythical because it's difficult to pair with a Nathsar Longsword ?

What?

No seriously - what?

The topic isn't whether haste helps DPS or not, the topic is about the difference of BASE delays. Try again.
