I don't know the answer but from this testing I can't help but be skeptical about its use anymore.
Well the one thing you have to consider is that we're only talking about melee damage here. In many fights (mostly bwl fights) you're getting a huge chunk of the mt damage from shadow flame etc, which cor (and demoralizing shout etc) isn't gonna change. Presumbly there'd be a sizeable dps increase on broodlord (his MS is multplicative, like 300% of wpn dmg), but honestly he's been nerfed so many times, his MS is way manageable no matter what for guilds past nef.

I was more interested in the mobs that currently hit like trucks (ouro, enraged kri, somewhat the emps). Even presumably patchwerk wouldn't fall under this category, since hateful strike is fixed damage and not based on wpn/atk.
