Default RK vs RE

Ok well I was wondering what would be faster at killing anything in general, a red katana or a reverse executioner? Lets say there both clean. Be specific please in the stats needed in which either one would be better then the other.

definitely reverse executioner.
because they can level --> which means better stats later on.
and they have a higher attack (108) as opposed to red katanas (82 average)
both of their attacking speeds are fast as well.

its a bit more complicated then that.

red katana's may display "Fast" on the sword but there is actually a speed difference between normal 1h swords and a few exceptions like Red katana, Lunchbox, Hero's Gladius, Trumpet, and the itcg lvl 70 1h sword. They are speed level faster then normal "Fast" weapons.

now in this situation the RE would win for sure, but the problem is that this is not a realistic situation. lets say you have both these swords and also you have a 1000 atk glove (theoreticaly) then you'd have 1108 atk vs 1082atk and in this scenaria the red katana would definetely win because the relatively "few" weapon attack difference wont outdamage the big weapon speed difference (i always use 10% speed diff but this is a very rough meassuring).

now my point is that wether the RK or RE wins is determined by your other attack stat equips. its really hard to calc this but fairly easy to test this out, kill a boss monster with both an RE an a RK and compare the killing times and thus meassure the dps difference. if you are able to kill bigfoot then i suggest doing it there, if not then maybe you can try headless horseman or something else that doesnt stunn or def up

btw to answer ur question, i think if you asked this 3months ago the RE would have definetely won, but since we haver Cygnus buff, Witch belts and vicious hammers now the average player gained a lot of attack so its fairly well possible that a 82atk red katana now equals out a RE in dps.
The reason why not everybody uses a RK is because the weapon attack gap is huge, making your raw dmg a lot less. this MAY give you a disadvantage during the training. lets say a 100% 2hko skele with a RE but when i use a red katana i do either 2 or 3hko's then that 1 extra hit i have to deal to a skele will take me 30% of extra killing time and thus undo the speed advantage of my RK. if you Both 2hko with your RE and RK then the RK is better in this scenario.
Oh and please note that sometimes you'll have a Buccaneer in your party during the bossing, which will give you a speed boost with time leap making RE and RK's attacking speed equal. but from personal experience i have to say that that doesnt happen much.

RK hit 10% faster than RE. RE with lvl, is 112 atk in average, 112-82=30 more watk. Very very few, actually i would say none can achieve 300 total watk in GMS now, without using apple, so at this point, RE still wins.

This is exactly the same as the Skii/Reverse Alchupiz discussion. I personally would make a Reverse Weapon for training and the Red Katana for bossing.

2 hit monster with RK > 2 hit monster with RE
If you 2 hit with RE and 3 hit with RK, the RE winst
If you 2 hit with both the RK wins.
