Hahahahahahaha
Nice argument, but youre forgetting some things.

those 7% more damage per swing, youll win some damage dealth per hit, but will loose same 7% on combatspeed. On the contrary to the combatspeedloss of 7% you wont have a 7% dps increase. Its gonna be lower because dps is defined by how many qui you have, and qui reduces damage per hit, while increasingdps. So in clear words, while youll win roughly 5% dmg per hit, youll loose 7% swingspeed.

There is no big difference, 2% are only 2% and with a little luck youll overcome it, but its not an issue enough to customise uth weapons system because of some lack of slower weapons.

Pierce has a huuuuuge advantage vs blades and blunt. While blunt is a good weapontype vs stealthers for all 3 realms in general, pierce is a good weapontype against armored targets(tanks, support), especially if youre hib. And blades beeing the mediochore choice, good vs midstealthers/offtanks & good vs hibtanks/supporters while neutral to albs.

Pierce being 50/50 dex/str based can be a defensive advantage but also an offensive disadvantage, it's all about how you look at it I guess.

I'll agree that pierce is by far giving the most advantages in Hib compared to other realm's pierce armor bonusses.
