Correct me if I'm wrong but my current understanding is that:
Weapon 1 = 800dps with +100-200 lightning damage vs
Weapon 2 = 800dps with +200 min + 200 max damage.
Assuming all other stats are the same and I use lightning and cold attacks, won't Weapon 2 be better since that +min and +max damage will affect both my lightning and cold attacks? Whereas with weapon 1, only my lightning attacks will benefit from the +(100-200) boost?

it was quite a shocker when I pressed ctrl + V and 2 non-english words showed up
I only remember bits of it It's pretty mild though, to the point where reporting me would yield no effect, probably not what you were thinking, aka probably not as *exciting* as you might think it would be

I believe that is incorrect. The lightning damage is just lighting damage on hit with the weapon. Your skills go based off weapon dps, and that is 800 on both of those weapons so they should yeild the same exact dps.

If both weapons are 800dps but one of the weapons is 1.20spd and the other is 1.40 speed then the 1.2spd weapon has the potential to hit harder because it has a higher max dps range than the 1.4spd weapon.
