Particularly, when you are fighting creatures with d2r items a high resistance to lightning or against lightning immunity which have been weakened by Infinity The -enemy resistance to Crescent Moon will often deal twice or more damage when as compared to a normal weapon for casting.

I came up with a few scenarios using acceptable equipment, Spirit, Vipermagi, Arach, Magefist, Mara's and more. Values will be different depending on the many variables that are needed to address all possibilities however, this ought to at least show the scenario:

The most elaborate way I can think of which weapon is more effective than Crescent Moon is when you already have significant enemy lightning resistance, and you need to sacrifice a number of +skills to get the 117 FCR. Making use of Crescent Moon, Infinity, Shako with 5/5 light facet Vipermagi as well as an ammy of 2/20, when attacking a creature with no resist to lightning (Ventar the Unholy), Crescent Moon will deal 33 percent less damage than perfect Eschuta's using the 5/5 light-facet and CoH and an ammy for lightning of 3/10.

The most improbable way I can think of which Crescent Moon does more damage is more striking. By using Crescent Moon, Infinity, Vipermagi and an ammy with a 2/20 rating for an opponent that has a lightning resistance of 115% (Magic Resilient Infectors of Souls), Crescent Moon will do the same amount of damage, 1,245% higher in comparison to HOTO CoH, HOTO, and 3/10 light ammy. These are obviously very extreme instances, yet the point is that CM can sometimes deal little damage (usually when it comes to weaker monsters, the extra damage won't make a huge difference) however, occasionally CM can cause much better damage (often against monsters that are tough, when you can notice the impact).

More realistic, yet still powerful In the event that you possess Infinity and not the Griffon's CM gives you a massive damage boost when broken immunities are. With the same gear used in that previous instance, when you take on an enemy that has 100 percent resist to Buy D2R items Xbox lightning (Grand Vizier of Chaos), Crescent Moon will inflict 216 percent greater damage than HOTO.
