Aterax isent better then ichors :)

You have to take stance into perspective. Ichors stance make them bypass the aterax by far.. they have like 80% higher dps.

Also ichors have (or atleast had) a hidden passive that would make them glow when attacking. This glow is a stackeble 1.1 damage multplier (1.1-1.2-1.3 etc.) that will make the ichors slowly deal massive dmg against high lvl enemies.

Annd lastly attackspeed is better than raw dmg, as you proc more often. (ichors have equal if tipedo uses flailing branch and tipedo is faster when using flailing branch)

Tipedo will be bypass ichors against highervlvled mobs because of the higher status chance.

As far as scindoprime goes, it has the highest DPS of any melee weapon, BY FAR. The Cleaving whirlwind and Tempo royale, has 400% and 500% dmg multipliers to the already heavy damage.

Pont is theres no point in dealing 500k damage when an enemy only has 50k (typical lvl 60-100 enemy) health. right? Actually there is. When hitting amored targets the extra dmg will make the scindo oneshot more or less anything, but against lighter amoured targest the massive damage wouldnt really be better than the attackspeed of atterax/ichors//tipedo.

Conclusion: Ichors good all around weapon that can kill early game content and late game content extremly fast. But they arent the "best" weapon ingame anymore, but could rather be described as "tied" with a few other weapons

atterax: The worst of the 3 weapons, good for its mastery rank requirement.

Scindo Prime: Massive dmg, but quite pointless to use over a faster weapon at early-mid content, and/or if the mobs dosent have a lot of armour.

Tipedo: havent used it yet, but numbers seems like it would be a contenter for best melee weapon in game (still a lot lower dps than Scindo prime)
