It's possible to get good DPS from a low delay weapon; machine xbow + holy bolts comes to mind, but even that is based more on the insane holy damage than the actual bolt.
yea machine xbow + holy would probably do a better job than a loxely + w/e. holy bolt proc/dmg is great. 30-40s? i think the proc alone can best loxley bow dmg.


casp. my guess it is some sort of check. loxely dmg is so low that even with the best arrow, it just cant mathmatically clear the check.
