People keep saying its much slower than any other dagger... But the speed is fast? I dont get it. Is it glitched?

Rapptz : umm i think it was fixed a long time ago,roughly around the time that i was lvl 50 which was like three years ago. The thing about shinkita is that the speed is actually 1 level slower than normal daggers (although it isnt noted in the description) so it seems as tho dagger booster does very little. But, if you equip a shinkita and time ur attacks for 60 seconds you should get 67 SavageBlows w/o booster and 77 w/ booster, of course this was all tested for a bandit rather than DB but im sure the results will turn out similar.

[/quote] If an actual glitch even existed then, this is very true. I used a shinkita when I was level 50 which was when everyone complained that it was glitched (at least 4 years ago). Doing any sort of timing test on it though I always came up with a better speed with booster than without it (SavageBlow, DoubleStab, Regular Attacks). The difference was never fantastic but it was always there.

[quote] Chemo12 : i used it on my db u cant rly tell the differance... [/quote] That's cuz it's been fixed a loong time ago. Dual bladers were released after the fix. But seriously, I had it on my second CB and it was really slow compared to other daggers (with booster).

[quote] Rapptz : Shinkita is not still glitched. It's just that booster doesn't affect it as much as other daggers because it's speed is different . [/quote] Fixed.

[quote] smileyx3x : then what speed is stonetooth sword then? [/quote] Fast (5), very good for a 2H sword. OT: Now I think about it, I should've gone with the Sai instead to avoid so much of this confusion AznRyaku , I don't understand what you just said. So you're telling me that it isn't the speed of the Shinkita that affects it but booster? Then isn't it still considered glitched?

[quote] ElderTree : Booster is +2 speeds for every class (except for arans -- they have 1 speed at level 1, 2 speeds at level 10, and 3 speeds at level 15). Speed Infusion (Buccaneer party skill) gives +1 additional speed at level 1, and +2 speed at level 11 (stacks with booster for +3-4 speed total). [/quote] No it's not. It's only +1 speed for every class. But arans get +3 speed, mages get +2. I heard after big bang it changes to +2 speed though.

[/quote] People consider the term "Fast" or "faster" just to be one speed, when it actually is more then one. Booster doesn't effect specific fast items like others, neither is glitched. Back when shinkita's were released, they were extremely slow from a glitch. That is what most people refer to/why they try to avoid using them.
