    Because I'm not making V16 stuff until all styles are out so I know what I want. Let's keep this on topic though ok? Ok.

    If you don't like decisive don't use it ... other players have use for it contrary to your beliefs ...

    This was discussed extensively in the PTS forums ... but if you ignored what was coming solely because you are a console player then most of us won't have a lot of sympathy.

    An extra 5% attack speed on a 1-handed weapon vs a 1/5 chance to gain 1 Ultimate per attack? I must respectfully disagree.

    It's not about using it or not. I have Decisive Swords because my Swords were Weighted because I wanted the Attack Speed, and I still do.

    Speak for yourself. My NB DPS can gather 100 ultimate in 8-12 secs in combat thanks to this trait (and a lot other gear). This is also a boon for DK tanks and helps maximize Warhorns uptime.

    Is that when you gain ultimate as in 1 or a batch? If on a NB you gain 20 a potion popped do you gain 20x 17% chances? A little unclear as usual.

    No, really. Did you accidentally scale a v15 to gold from your inventory thinking it was a v16, and now you are stuck using it?

    I think everyone is missing my point. I'm not arguing the Ultimate gain (did that already), I'm arguing how underwhelming they made it. Why didn't they just do a flat gain every time? Why all the luck-based horse ***?

    Wasn't the 5% attack speed shown to be .2 seconds or less? Like didn't it do so little that the naked eye couldn't detect it?

    I like it. With my one hand and sheild. DKs finally be able to have great amount of ultimate and they need it so they could get more resources. The speed in this game change. It seems alittle more faster than last patch.

    Why troll? Like seriously I know tons of overcappers who use v15 stuff still. Kids these days...do anything for attention.

    Judge all you want but this WAS to be my permanent weapon until all styles were released. I will have to make new ones now... Armor too, due to all the trait changes. Can't win for losing eh? :/

    Weighed used to increase light attack/heavy attack speed by 10% for two items. But that is useless if you were animation channeling which most people do as you were anyway clipping the animation instantly so the decrease in its animation time was literally useless.

    Spending a few hours in a CP160 zone gets you all the mats you need. I suppose if you never bothered to level crafting you are s.o.l., but gold tempers cost so much more than the mats, it makes no sense...

    Well then we disagree with each other idc.
    There was no reason anyway to run the speed trait instead of sharpened or nirn (or precise). Decisive is at least kinda useful, though it obviously doesn't compare to the other traits.

    Not at all. It still speeds up the attacks regardless if you cancel out or not. Just means you cancel out a bit sooner after all. And for Light Attacks that was where it shined.

    I've already explained why. If ya'll don't get it that's not my problem. Moot point anyway as it's off topic.

    Because weapon speed trait wasn't working right. It didn't work for medium/heavy attack weaving and in typical zos fashion rather than fix the bug they just changed it.

    This lol. That is like 80+ gold tempers only to be upgraded again. Sorry, but I have been playing since beta and never seen this before. I am curious, that is all.
