Did an unplanned test of FH vs. CD FH

For those of you who don't know, CD set increases attack speed and bumps each weapon's regular stun up one (Fast-->Very Fast and etc).

EDIT: Why increase your speed? Well, it's great for final hit as you can put more hits in. Also, good for boss rush and field bosses (which drop loot based on hits afflicted)

Also; is it a smaller difference than it seems?

Maybe it's your criticals, but it seems you're hitting at least 1.2x-1.5x as fast as he is.

The only difference i've seen is that at the end of the fourth swing, is the recovery from the fourth swing.

Look at Tickled's combo, after the fourth swing he takes a noticeably long time to recover to start the next combo.

With CD though, that recovery time is almost completely wiped.

Surprised this completely false rumor hasn't died yet.

Also stun doesn't change. Knockback rating and speed are the only things that do, and not by "weapon speed" grades.

so what are drops based on? Or is it just a lucky roll? I know once boss is dead your item drops on the ground, but two days ago at red dragon I walked around and started picking up 'other' people's drops

lol.

if u hit it, u get 1 drop, what drop u get is completely randomly, and doesnt matter how many times you hit it

other people probably picked up their drops and tossed them back on the ground

some drops will de-personalize after a certain amount of time
