    It is broken.
    34 x2 weapons. 1.2k
    44x1 34x1 1.3-1.4k
    whetestones up
    1.4k

    No idea what's going on, seems to work sometimes anddont work others. I am sure this applies to not only whetestones! I am going to submit bug report tonight as it seems no mod reads warrior forums anymore.

    I just hopped on the server and checked with Fine Whetstones.

    Just tried it as riftblade spamming searing strike using a R6 dagger with a fine whetstone, shield in offhand.

    Searing Strike No Whetstone > Crits for 792 every time
    Searing Strike With Whetstone > Crits for 803 every time

    So is it adding +4 damage instead of +4 weapon DPS?

    Seems rather pathetic/bugged to be honest, but does seem to be doing something.

    I hopped over to my PvE paragon DW spec. I used the daggers first with only one having a whetstone then two. I just spammed dual strike. It seemed like the damage went up with the second whetstone though not by much.

    With regards to your guys parses, can you look at average non crit damage with and without. I noticed oddly that my non crits seemed more consistently higher in damage without the whetstones but could be RNG.

    i honestly think thats a little rng or something.. because it is doing absolutely nothing for me in 51 riftblade.

    whetstones are completely broken, but at least we know DW isn't "nerfed" in pve anymore, it's just our whetsones don't work whereas oilstones do.

    I did ~100 dps less on plut this week than I did two weeks ago, and I've had some minor gear upgrades since then.

    and that's due to the whetstone bug ;)

    by the way, i've noticed this bug for about 1.5 weeks and have not posted anything about it until this thread because i continued to test after the hotfixes and make sure i just wasn't crazy.

    so we've been wasting whetstones (rogues+warriors) for about 2 weeks most likely.

    Since the 1.4 hotfix that nerfed Paragon PVP out of existence, right?

    I dunno, if whetstones aren't working and I was still pulling 2.3k DPS (Pluto, Warmaster etc) my mage buddy will ***** more if they make it go higher!

    That's not RNG ... crit damage should be the same under controlled circumstances.

    Definitely something wrong with Whetstones and it does indeed appear to be giving flat damage over the listed DPS increase.

    Dual Strike:
    1324
    1345 +4 DPS Stone x1
    1363 +4 DPS Stone x2


    Stones are working, whether or not they are giving as much as they should is a different matter.
