Well since War Sword prices are officially through the roof here in Ruairi, I've been thinking of an alternative supplement for my ego 1H.. and i was thniking specifically about Beholder Sword.

I remember back when Dual Wield first arrived in NA Mabi, there was talking about a 'rubber band' lag that occured when DWing two different speeds (read about Broadsword + Dagger I think).

Ran a Stones HM mission with my guildmate's Beholder Sword (thanks Zx! :3) and a Broad Sword and encounted no such lag though... did some N+1, Smash, and WM.

Just wondering if anyone else has made observations about this...
After all, basing a conclusion only on one sample is a bad idea :what:

Fear not sir! for rubber band lag is a lie, the speed would be that of the slowest weapon.

rubber band lag was a way for people to get out of looking like fools (with their pants on the ground) when the died cause they didnt understand duel wielding combos and structure yet... and iria lag... yipes >_<

this has been the history of excuses with card :3

np zat, glad you got your solution to the problem here. that form of lag was interesting but glad to hear it was a hoax.

How much are warswords in your server? My guild is only one really producing them here (7 so far) and I don't think we sold any. I spent 5 mil though and didnt get one QQ.

Stock stats have sold for 10m, a +3 max sold the other day for 16m?
