What he's saying is that [lamentation] won't equal wurmslayer until level 58+. From 20-50, wurmslayer should have a very significant lead.

Correct.
Another example. At L40 primary hand bonus is 5, so:
Wurmslayer's 25 base damage gives 55 modal (25*2+5), 55/40 = 1.375, vs.
Lamentation's 9 base damage gives 23 modal (9*2+5), 23/19 ~ 1.211
At L40 wurmslayer should be ~ 13.5% more dps than lamentation in primary hand, it's popular as twink gear because it works. (Note: with very high str and/or when smashing green cons wurmslayer should have an even larger edge due to the damage bonus making up less of the total damage output.)
Such a pity wurmslayer's so incredibly fugly. Every time I see a dwarf with WS equipped (fugly squared!) my eyes reflexively defocus to save me from the horror.
