A6 - Demonslayer

[Dominov]

What effect does the trait "Demonbane", on the Cracked Demonslayer, have? Obviously it grants extra damage against demons, but what are the numbers for that? Would it be better to use the Cracked Demonslayer than the Radiant Soulblade if you were fighting a demon?

I don't have actual numbers, but the short answer is "not much".

Are you sure? Because I've been noticing significantly higher damage with Cracked Demonslayer against demons than any other weapon. Certainly it's better than any of the 11-33 cursing blades.

Dominov -- if you can provide actual numbers -- a few examples of damage with each weapon against the same demon enemy, along with your character's skill levels -- we might be able to try and deconstruct it.

The subject is Zahur Firecaller, the demon in Melanchion's Realm.

 

I filtered out Lethal Blows, but left Quick Action double-hits in.

 

Character has 8 melee weapons, 4 strength, 18 blademaster and is not dual-wielding.

 

Blocked damage is in parentheses.
