is dual wield calculated in that? not from gear but from natural traits?
not that it'd change the difference that much but still should be accounted for 240 delay for the NIN says yes.

You know i actually agree with you, but on average SAM>WAR if WAR pull their finger out though they rape... only things i have seen Warriors do in Meritpo 1K+ Kings justice and 700+ Raging Rush (Ok some bad ones, the odd 150 LOL), and if they have the right gear, they can attack pretty fast too, with high double attack rate, but yea on topic, NIN Ftw! ;o

WAR < SAM < WAR
Samurais pull ahead on high level NMs until WARs get a barrage of buffs (ie 3 brd rotation) because their multi-hit weaponskills start to outshine SAMs. Otherwise hagun SAMs pull ahead thanks to the stupidly high accuracy of single hit weaponskills.
Samurais offer more tools than WAR. The ability to generate TP without having to strike mobs is a great tool for both limiting mob TP gain but also to generate TP while on the go (ie Nyzul). Plus SAMs are better equipped to handle blink tanking compared to WARs.
* Naturally everything in this post is subject to both the SAM and WAR being equally geared and skill set being similar.

Post was called Nin cant DD, (which it can). Not Nin can out DD a sam.
Just because a Nin cant out-parse a similar equiped sam does`nt mean it can`t DD

1 handers are not respectable DDs since the 2handed update. No matter what people say, 1 Handers do not compare against 2 Handers unless you put an ungodly amount of effort to bring them up to par. Even then, if you put half as much work into a 2Hander you'd be legendary.
TLDR; Nins will never be considered powerhouse DDs, so don't fool yourself into thinking it's possible.

It isn`t about comparing the jobs, nin can DD, just not as good as 2 handers, no point comparing them because they`re not the same

1 handers need to embrace sushi/pizza

@Temaruma, quotes not working but I do have Kikoku, so assume differently. Still I'm just saying what we are all saying, nin can dd. Topic is a lie!

Since dropping club merits it's pretty dum to even take to birds. Mamools idk, with good food I guess it might work, gives me something to do tonight.

E-rated weapon for a job that does very little WS damage and is mostly DOT damage, no point in using a kclub.

I forgot the set bonus,
But breaking the set = -5
Turban = +2
Byakkos = +2
Dusk+1 = +4
So 3 haste.
Depending on hit rate 3 haste could well bead 9acc.

dusk +1!
:(
Generally, its 2% because dusk +1 isn't common.

Bare this in mind. How many times you going to get decked out dd in a pickup meripo? So far most of the sams on bismark like to use great katana on birds over polearm... Well in the meripos that I have been since I came back.

~3% difference in haste (if wiki's right about full set being 13%) then DW trait from body. I don't think full usu's ever been better than mix+match for nin with gear options that have been available since it (usu.) came out.
Thats what everyone says anyway.
Had an ls party on birds and I went as nin just for fun, and parsed it.
result:
bobbys: WAR
Wesknight: SAM
Sesshoummaru: RNG
Zanno: NIN
Murr: SCH
Asayla: BRD
inb4 "the others must suck"
They all had avarage gear, and my nin doesnt have anything special either really
