THE best deal for anyone serious about using Drk 2hr for Zerg damage, but cannot afford a Kraken Club.
Even if your normal hits do 0 damage, your Souleater and Bloodweapon puts out HUGE numbers based on ur remaining hp:
Kraken Club: 17000 dmg
Mercurial Kris: 11000 dmg
Ridill: 7500 dmg
Bahamut's Zaghnal: 7200 dmg
Fortitude Axe: 5000 dmg
70% damage output of Kraken Club, at only 10% the ticket price. AND its still a great toy for any job that can use it in merit parties... WS spam GO!
Merc Kris CAN be a good off hand weapon, even though it can gives massive tp to mobs. But when you're in a merit party a mob dont last more than 30 sec >.> If you can pack up more attack gears and food Merc kris is pretty awesome.^^ P.S: 400+ attack= great Merc Kris :D
Going to piggy back on Vytiss' statement about Kclub damage with Souleater and Bloodweapon... thanks to the edition of the new levels, DRK also has use of Endark for a more lax zerg style that doesn't involve 2 hours.
