I still maintain JM was in error here. More chances to hit
only lowers deviation from the average - that is, you're more
likely to get average results. Sometimes that is a good
thing, but it is not advantageous as a general rule. A higher
deviation just means you're further away from the average -
you're more likely to do worse than average, but you're just
as more likely to do *better* than average.

I agreed with John here. The higher dmg weapon is better than the faster
weapon when the dmg ratio are the same. I used to used a Demon claw and a
Silver war axe. That was fast. But now that I have the crystalline blade
and the black enamel mace I find the later weapons a lot more efficient. I
have no scientific facts except that with the Crys blade and mace the MOBs
seems to hate me a lot more than when I was fighting with Claw and axe.
Same mob at same lvl.
