Seal of the crusader gives better dps for 1 handed

Everyone says only to use it for it’s judgement but when testing it’s dps with one handed weapons against righteousness it seems to do a bit more - not with 2 handed weapons though (this is just using the seal and not using the judgement of each one)

So is there another reason not to use it? I know it would be more mana to have a rotation that goes SoR-Judgement-Sotc-SoR-Judgement, but it still seems to do more dps if I use it like this,

Obvs with fights lasting a bit longer, judging with SotC then using SoR is better

Maybe it’s because Im only level 20 so haven’t got enough stats to make much difference yet but with everyone against it, I don’t get why.

Its because you are level 20. SoR has a static spell power coefficient which means it works better for low delay weapons.

SoTC also does not have a damaging Judgement which at level 20 is around 25% of your damage.

By Low delay weapons do you mean faster weapons? Honestly never heard that term before haha.

And I know it doesn’t have a damaging judgement, which is why I thought just swapping to Righteousness and instantly dealing the damage judgement then back to SoTC would in the end give you more DPS despite using more mana

Too mana inefficient and it’s an edge case better handled with Command.

I guess, what did you mean by low delay weapons though I’m curious?

High speed weapon. Sorry I naturally think of weapon speed as hit delays.

No worries, didn’t hear it before so I get what you mean now. Sadly I won’t have command since I’m sticking with the holy/prot route on my Paladin.
I’ll test the SoR and SotC again then in a few levels and see if anything’s changed

Just strange seeing it giving more damage at the moment when it get’s so much hate for doing the opposite
