1h vs. 2h after BB

In terms of formulas, you can look at it like
fast 4 1h: 1.2*100 = 120 per minute
fast 5 1h: 1.2*91 = 109 per minute
fast 5 2h: 1.32*91 = 120 per minute
normal 6 1h: 1.2*83.3 = 100 per minute
normal 6 2h: 1.32*83.3 = 110 per minute
slow 7 2h: 1.32*80 = 106 per minute

So in terms of average equal weapons,
fast 5 2h sword & fast 4 1h sword > normal 6 2h sword & fast 5 1h sword > slow 7 2h bw > normal 6 1h bw
This is neglecting the benefits of a Shield - so it's pretty much always better to use a shield and 1h sword.

Which does mean that the Crushed Skull has a 10% damage disadvantage against regular weapons, and 20% disadvantage against the fast ones.



Red Katana and Reverse 1h have a 25 atk gap - so the 10% damage advantage means you're looking at around 250 total atk for the Katana to be stronger. I don't know about KMS's attack buffs but with a 40-50 atk buff this is not difficult. With onyx apples I'd like to say it's guaranteed but I know some people don't have very good stuff.

The highest attack buff we have is +30 attack - it is a weather effect bought from the cash shop. Also, shouldn't you still go with the reverse because it has a higher potential ability?
