Item talk:Epic Spinal Tap
Can anyone explain why everyone is saying this is so great? Isn't CON damage useless in epics because nothing can take more than 10 stat damage anyway? Espoire (Contributions • Message) 00:47, April 19, 2015 (EDT)
- You're misremembering... the max 10 damage applies to rednames, not epic creatures. It used to be bad because Epic Ward provided 90% stat damage resistance, most weapons were only doing one point of stat damage per hit, and stat regen on epic was very quick, but the resistance was lowered recently. Since you're doing three points of stat damage with this weapon, it's possible to keep pace with the resistance/regen when beating on trash. Even if you ignore the stat damage, the 5d10 and Bleed effects are pretty good. --Thalone 02:07, April 19, 2015 (EDT)
- It's got double the weapon die of most weapons at it's level, it's got an x3 crit profile compared to the usual x2, it does piercing damage instead of slashing damage, and finally it has an awesome looking cosmetic. 👟 ShoeMaker (Contribs • Message • Email) 👟 09:35, November 17, 2017 (EST)
