Not only is the damage the exact same... but the ONLY difference is the vr14 version gives a whopping 7 more points on the damage shield enchant. Every other stat is exactly the same including the set bonuses.

ZOS explanation please?

    Good. The stat gap when it comes to gear that high should be minimal, if not nothing, otherwise in years from now new items will have godly stats. I think its to help prepare for the champion system.

    What the- are you sure you used the same enchant on both swords??!!??!? No way should the V14 be worse. That's seriously messed up. You'd think V14 gear would be at least a little better, not a little worse...

    The V14 gear isn't worse. Same damage, slightly better enchant.

    The vr14 isnt worse...its the same damage as the vr12.... yet in the second example it clearly shows there should be an increase in damage for hte level difference

    Maybe your lv v14 sword was taken from loot then upgraded while the v12 is made from beginning with blacksmith. Tha stats of crafted weapons are higher than looted ones.

    Nope both were bought at seperate times for 248,000AP from PvP vendor at purple and upgraded to gold.

    The vr12 was purchased before 1.4
    The vr14 was purchased after 1.4

    I am commenting in my own thread because this topic really bothers me,

    Does anyone know if this sort of thing happens with other gear? Am I missing something? ZOS?
