Rupturers are hardly MUCH better than twiggs. There is little precedence to base this claim on. As it stands, i don't believe the legacy dropped from ragnar should but a stark upgrade to the durendal dropped by odin which has always been stronger than the legacy (although not really) in the past. Call me old fashioned but this buff is not "fair and balanced".
Whoa, chill. That is a very unnecessarily aggressive tone. The Legacy has end stats of 93 speed, 145 reach, and 69 cut. The Durendal is still high up there at 97 speed, 134 reach, and 66 cut. I wouldn't see that is the Legacy far outshining it. A little better? Yes. It is longer and a bit more damage, but a bit slower. This seems pretty fitting for the Zweihander class. Look at Elegant Flamberge (90/60/166) compared to Elegant Greatsword (97/62/120) and Forlorn Hope (97/62/131) compared to Bidenhander (94/61/142). I know it isn't the best comparison as each matched pair are exactly the same in crafting cost and requirements, but it does show how length, speed, and damage are all moved around to try to balance each other and make the swords unique. It seems a fine change to try to have a slightly slower, slightly longer, and higher damage sword for Zweihander than for all Commandos.
That being said, all stats are subject to change over time to make room for new items or re-balance existing ones. There is no need to make an angry post on the patch thread when you can write a Feature Request showing sound numbers and logic or even just wait to see how things go.
