it adds to your max not every hit... Not true, it hits much higher then whip and is far more accurate. For drags, a ZS doesn't even come close. LS is only good for bosses, but the rapier is better for pretty much everything else. It's been said many times that it doesn't cost 200k/hr to use. Don't make up info. yeah i said combat hours the first time and was too lazy to say it the 2nd time.
