Weapon / DPS ID help

[Duped]

About a week ago, I noticed a 55 bear running in goblin tunnels using a lvl 50 crossbow. Before mocking him publicly, I thought I'd check his stats, and noticed with rage on, he was doing over 400 dps!!! Even after rage died down he was doing 300+. So, I asked which it was. I thought he said Elegant Arbolest of Fortune, but I'm just not positive. Either way, I went down to CS, found one and once equipped on my bear, I saw much lower lower #'s, that closely resembled what you'd expect to find out of lvl 50 gear. Anyone know what he was using? What lvl 50 AUTOBOW could possibly have unbuffed 300+ dps??

may it was a ballista..? what was his base damage...? did u c his effective dmg? dps we all know isnt a number wich says out all.

[Ellyidol]

Pure dex and a recurve maybe, not sure on a crossbow.

[DRONE769]

[Ellyidol]

Whats dps?

Damage per second.

[Silentarrow]

Damage per Second.

[Zaltiar]

maybe additional rings or crowns that add dps? i know my dps is over 300 but i use a recurve lol

the weapon he is using is called mystery bow. he was probably all sparkly. means hes using full mystery set. the dps of the bow is bout 300. its is obtained from a quest. if u need help getting it i can farm wit u will u get.

Bingo, sounds right. I remember the mystery dex set having huge DPS, furthermore if he had rage on and full dex.

Very possible Dex bear?

3 normal attack crits from a dex bear could usually bring down a soft bird/mage, so a beckon + 2 attacks could do the trick.

Purple hat/armor, dmg ring, mystery bow give my bear (half dex/str) a dps of 316 I think but 401 with rage on.
Dont c any xbow doing that.

Guys!! I said it was a level 50 crossbow! He confirmed it was a lvl 50, and what makes it unique was the fact it was a crossbow! not a recurve, or a mystery bow. I know my gear better than that... Just not this good

BTW, like how I capitalized AUTOBOW yet it seems to have made no difference :P

[Kakatoa91]

Just had a drop Pink elegant arbalest of fortune.
Had 280 dps with my dual. If full dex should be well over 300+ so its possible around 400 with rage.

wow this guy or girl must kickass

High DPS dose not mean he doing great DMG ,fight low armor mobs high DPS work fine , but when you fight high armor mobs in sewer ，especially on the boss fight , high dps (low weapon DMG) is doing like nothing (maybe can kill some bins or attack totems and chests)

also as a bear we don't have much rang spell (shot) , also bow or crossbow didn't add any dmg on our Slash , it is hard to say dex gear bear doing good dmg as same as bird in same gear .

a Crossbow has better rang then bow , it's good in PvP , but in PvE , a bow are much better then a crossbow at most time , i have mystery bow set and i am duel bear , in that set i got over 300 dps , but dmg are not that good , in lvl50 weapon Gurgox hammer of the rift are the best DMG weapon , that is what a str bear really need a slow weapon with great DMG not fast weapon with high DPS , that hammer still the beat melee weapon in game so far ......

so next time when yo sew that bear , don't call out he is a noob , we need play nice , but he maybe is a noob just keep it in your mind ,ok

I'm sorry buddy, but a crossbow doing 300 dps is still a very damaging weapon no matter how you slice it. A crossbow isn't a dagger (high dps but a worthless item IMO), a crossbow is the best ranged weapon, and it has to be doing a boatload of damage when rage brings your dps to over 400. I know its not elegant arbolest of fortune, my dual bear was only pulling low 200's with it.

Agreed, if a crossbow indeed has 300-400+ DPS, that's huge!

That's what makes me question though, 300-400 DPS, even with Rage on, sounds like it's a pretty fast weapon, yet crossbows have one of the slowest speeds in the game..

Will check more when I get on later

Reread my posts.
My dual bear with my gear setup (purple dex lvl55 hat/armor + dmg ring) is doing 280 dps with that 'pink arbolest of fortune' WITHOUT rage!
You r doing 200... thats 80 LESS???

With my 'mystery bow' I do 316 dps rage off (401 rage on). So its not so far.

EDIT:
Here r my numbers,
Mystery bow
201 - 241 -> 316 dps
261 - 301 -> 401 dps
(85 dps gained with rage on)

Arbalest of fortune
159 - 163 -> 280 dps
219 - 223 -> 384 dps
(104 dps gained with rage on)

So a full dex bear would reach well over 300 dps rage off since dex ADD a lot more dmg and be at 400+ rage on.
