(2*damage + damage bonus) / delay

Dmg bonus at 60. 2h uses the lucy damage charts to calculate 2h bonus. From my understanding that's the commonly used method of comparison.

I noticed for 2handers, usually just checking the ratio between weapons will give you a very good indicator of where they stand against eachother.

For 1h mainhand, speed matters a lot due to damage bonus and ratios are mostly useless.
Ah, I was mistakenly looking at the last column on the Lucy chart, but that's level 65 not 60. Now it makes sense. I agree with you that this is the right approach for getting ballpark ideas on comparing weapons.

You need to re-read my post, as you clearly didn't understand it.
It's been a few months since that discussion, so I'm revisiting your analysis and data and it looks like it's flawed from the very start. I'm using this post for the raw data: https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=402, where you say:

==========================
2h IFS parse on Giants.
==========================
16964 damage over 553 seconds = 30.68 DPS with fistweaving
15023 damage over 553 seconds = 27.5 DPS without fistweaving
207 punch swings / 297 crush swings = 70% dual wield chance.

==========================
1h Epic Fist + SoS Giant Parse
==========================
16712 damage over 552 seconds = 30.28 DPS
305 crush swings / 730 punch swings = 42% chance to dual wield.

==========================
2h IFS parse Corudoth
==========================
31414 damage over 553 seconds = 56.8 DPS with fistweaving
27455 damage over 553 seconds = 49.6 DPS without fistweaving

==========================
1h Epic + SoS Parse Corudoth
==========================
30819 damage over 553 seconds = 55.7 DPS
Given the data in the spoiler tags, I think you messed up the basic counts. For IFS on giants I get the same damage figures, but I count 123 punches and 183 crushes, not 207 and 297. Similarly on the 1h parse, I also calculate 16712 total damage, but 469 punches and 213 crushes, not 730 and 305.

Could you recheck your figures?
