Title says most. I've been merching again (nearly made another 1b from scratch[yey, go me]) I'm a dexless (4 dex) aran which means if i go for the arcglaive(both of them cost about 1b ea in broa) I need to go after a HT necklace to fill the 80 dex req. I hear that the 1 speed bonus from using a super snowboard will totally outweigh the atk bonus on the arcglaive. (on a side note i farmed 380 woods and realized i hadnt done ninja quests... fml) this means that I will probably end up with an arcglaive in any cases Should i purchase the super snowboard or the arc? Purp surfboard is almost out of the Q because its not mts'able and I know of 2 people who own it in broa and they are totally anal. does 1 atk speed really make a helluva difference?

I am not sure but I think the arcglaive will be stronger. Not entirely sure.

Arcglaive should have higher DPS; one level of speed shouldn't make up for 23 attack.

Arcglaive > Snowboard with SI. Snowboard > Arcglaive in all other instances. So generally if you are bossing you will want to use the arcglaive. Otherwise for training the Ssb is better.

i think it was like 15 att for a slower speed to make up for it don't quote me on it I'm pretty sure the arclaive would be better

I use an 84attk0 str rsb instead of 125/18 rsb slow 7, and its way sexier. The whole gameplay froma fast wep, is crazy, compared to even a mapleboard,,,normal 6. I crucify skels with the ssb, attk so fast and kill so quickly they have no time to shoot beams. My range with it is just over 5000, and it does the job beautifully.

I'd say a 95 Att Supersnowboard is about as good as a 114 Att Arcglaive but I'm not entirely sure.

The ssb would get you a higher % per hour, but the arcglove would give you an advantage at bosses.

The Arcglaive should have a higher DPM, but the SSB might get you a better %/hr while training. Im not sure, Ive never compared a Fast (5) polearm to a Normal (6) polearm before.
