I could hold your hand like a kid going into a supermarket Geb, but I'm not about to reveal how to achieve the damage unless I'm paid to do so, or you happen to be someone I like.
That said, I suppose for the sake of others reading this thread, I could give a little insight into the "truth." With a 373 base claymore, with forging runes, with weapon aura, with two +15 stat runes, and with two elemental runes, the sword would beat the damage on my own swords. In Geb's case, he does not achieve my str now as a titan, nor did he achieve my str as a non-titan Ur'Guard (both pre and post buff nerf).

Ok, you stated first that it only took 180 damage broads to do the damage you do. That is 360. Now you are saying 373 base claymore. Now from what I have been told, it is not possible to create a 373 base claymore. Can some one come on and confirm or deny what I have been told? Last, there have been others that achieved your strength as an Ur'guard, and yet still did not achieve the damage you are doing now, none at all. Also, if you can, how about you have someone come support your claim that it is possible to achieve your damage. From what I can tell so far, you evidently do not like anyone since you have not told anyone your supposed secrets. Because frankly, I do not believe you are above bending the truth to support your claims.
*update*
Ok, talked with a former warrior who forged weapons extensively, and he confirmed that the highest the base damage on a claymore can be is 360. A base 373 damage claymore would allow the person to create a weapon with great runes that is 403 damage or 423 damage with dwarven runes. So please have someone come forth and prove that your statement of a 373 base damage claymore is even possible, because right now I am told 360 base is tops.

You need to read my posts more carefully, Geb. I said it was possible to do more damage with 180 broads (note: in two different guilds) than myself as an Ur'Guard. I'm also ignoring the fact that igasho and tae'dae have higher base str than when myself in the Ur'Guard. This means that an igasho or tae'dae in the two guilds would not only beat my str as compared to me as a human Ur'Guard, but they would also be on par with my sword stats.
I assumed your 373 was base, you should have specified whether it was base stat or not, and it was my mistake for assuming. That said, I just checked and a 360 claymore, fully runed, would be possible to equal my sword damage when I was an Ur'Guard.

You just said 373 base would be needed with great runes, dwarven runes, and weapon aura to beat your sword. Now I know weapon aura only adds +10 to each stat, so let's remove that from the equation to put you back where you were when you were an Ur'guard. That would mean that a 363 base damage weapon would be needed with all of the other stuff to beat your sword. So if 360 equals it as an Ur'guard, why did you not say 370 would equal it right now, or 371 would beat it. Why is it now possible to equal it at 360 when you were an Ur'guard?
Oh, and on the part about what I wrote about my weapon damage stat:
"I am pretty sure it is enough to kill decent people, since my damage weapon seems to only do about 1.1k damage to people I fight with health that is greater than 4k. It has 373 damage, and that is with the level 3 stat runes and elemental runes. It definitely did enough to kill your character. "
That is what I posted in response to one of Cuber's response. I would think the second sentence made it clear that my weapon is 373 with all of the artifacts on it. If it was greater than that with the artifacts, I would have said 373 base, or 403 with artifacts.
*note: Does weapon aura give +20, +24, +10 to two-handed sword like dwarven runes?

Read my posts again. Never did I say that a 373 was needed. I used that number because it was what you provided.
To quote myself "With a 373 base claymore, with forging runes, with weapon aura, with two +15 stat runes, and with two elemental runes, the sword would beat the damage on my own swords"
A 360 has always been possible to be on par with my own, given certain runes and conditions as I already have specified.

No they are not, since a person with the same skills you have would still not be on par with your weapon stats as they are now. Anyhow, what is the full damage stat of your sword. Are you willing to disclose that information to the public, or are going to continue to throw up numbers with out a verifiable base for them to be compared to.
