Now that's an interesting question. How does a living lightsaber stack up against a living claymore if wielded two handed? Lightsaber has 100% pierce while claymore has 0% but the claymore has the better damage dice. Decided to take Kai and do some damage tests against the enemies I'm fighting in the void which have cap attributes and cap skills. Important here is the cap armor skills.

Both Claymore and Lightsaber are around 420s. Lightsaber I kept ether but applied a craft repair kit. Claymore I used an adamantium material kit and craft repair kit. Both have been enhanced to +10 using the blacksmith. All 10 living weapon levels went to magic damage for both of them.

Despite the living lightsaber having less damage dice, it was doing more damage than my living claymore. I'm thinking it's due to the 100% pierce. In the instance of my pic, total damage for the lightsaber was 1,078,278 while claymore is 752,467. Ignoring the damage with proximity assist, highest crit/magic damage for the living lightsaber totaled 347,027 and living claymore totaled 296,863. Interestingly for non crit damage the living claymore beat out the living lightsaber though.

So now I've went from a living spear, to a living claymore(which currently sometimes does a bit more damage than my living spear despite my sword skill being much less than my polearm skill.), to now a heavy living lightsaber. Anyone else with a two hand build giving heavy living lightsabers a go? Hows your damage? I suspect pierce really matters against enemies that scale.
