Melee Alternatives Double Attack?

[Takamori]

Can the melee AAs that replace our spells get a double attack?  I.e. if you have 15% double attack showing on your Persona screen, will your feverish strike and other AAs melee attacks double attack 15% of the time?  Coupled with 100% crit, this thought is making me drool.  Almost at 100% crit now, and looking to move down to the double attack AAs after.Thanks!

I believe DA applies only to auto attack.In most situations, a Mystic will achieve their maximum DPS using a 2H weapon versus 1H / DA.  If you look carefully, you'll see that the DA AA requires a shield.

Double attack only applies to Auto attack not Combat Arts. Also Double attack does not require a shield. Only Dazing Bash requires a shield

Thanks for the info.I hit 100% crits last night, so now I have to decide if I am going to muddle through the healing crits to get the end of agi ability, or start to head down to DA.

Oh by all means grab Rage first. It is almost always up, especially when soloing, and 35 haste and DA is a beautiful thing. The extra DA helps, but 16% < 35% last I checked <img src="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/images/smilies/e8a506dc4ad763aca51bec4ca7dc8560.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" />
