Share with us the results, oh please. My guess is it would work sweet with very high dexterity.

what i am asking, is even with bare minimum stats a 750k weapon should perform better than a 120k weapon with no stat requirements right?

2:50 pm SuP3Rn00b attacked you and lost. Zerkin still ain't easy.

My friend, the key word here is "Potential".

A 750k weapon has a much better potential than a 120k weapon. No doubt about it.

However, will the 750k weapon out perform the 120k weapon? It got a lot of variable there. Skill, Overall stats, and specific build will play a role in this performance that you are speaking of.

With a low stats, you have a chance of not notice the difference between the weapon. Due to the fact that the 750k weapon might require a higher stats to unlock its potential.

If I want to manufacture biological weapons with my copy of iTunes, I will, fascists. Ditch this bullshit.

Well it looked like the weapon almost never missed or has a faster attack rate then other weapons... considering the number of rounds and the # of hits unless zeon was hitting someone that had a crapton less dex than him.
People are always too concerned with top crits. Just because it doesn't have a high top end crit doesn't mean it can't be good /shrug.

I didn't think the shogunate was near good enough to justify the price since it seemed to hit for 50-150 95% of the time with random huge crits once a fight or so but people absolutely love it because the top crit is so high for the stats needed etc.
