2-hand mercs still get additional 2x power?

it states that 2-hand and dual sword mercs get 2x power more than any other weapon mercs. When I tested this out with a staff merc and a 2-hand merc, both powers doubled. Is this information out of date?

P.S. ~ also, does motion locking happen at 1000 ASPD or 1100 ASPD?

 

attacker mercenaries always get double atk, while defender mercenaries get double hp.
(their base stats are doubled)

the number displayed on the hiring list is the doubled atk.
DW hit twice with each attack.
2h deals double damage (double the displayed number, so it's quadruple atk power).
every weapon type probably gains a special effect. staff gets 12m range even without power wave (and no damage reduction like power wave).

the attack recovery time becomes 0 at 1000 aspd.
at 1180 aspd you get +1% motion speed.

 

I meant motion locking with mercenaries, where they don't run away after each attack. It sounds like you're talking about speed with your own character?

 

mercenaries are our own characters
you can't see their aspd stat, but it's the same as when you play the character yourself.
