Accelerated Durability Eating?
Bash definitely increases durability loss, far faster than normal attacks do. Using slow 2-hit weapons with Bash and only doing the normal Bash attacks (no double-hit), durability loss is way faster than just using normal attacks at the same speed. I'll try to get some actual numbers later once some things are fixed.
Alright, got impatient and grabbed the durability numbers out of RAM. Bash seems to always use the max value for melee attack (-0.015). I tested with a 2-hander and with 2 1-handed swords to see if that made a difference but nope. Will add the info to the page now.
Might be intended, given that Bash was meant to be used with the Celtic Royal Knight Swords which have durability reduction set effect. (Totally not because Bash is OP)
Also, let's not forget that KR's been throwing bug fixes all around since Renovation, so if it were bugged they would have already fixed it by then.
Did some testing myself. Used two blessed Fomor daggers, and used up 1 dura point on each, one with bash and one with normal attacks. The one I used normal attacks with ended up with exactly 3x the proficiency of the one I solely used bash with. Also felt like it took about 3x longer to drain the 1 dura with normal attacks.
