Dsm, what does your calc say the dps of just the ragebringer in primary including bs and + attack? Disable any dual wield, etc

Just as a quick note, the DPS calculations in my previous post did not have backstab double attack. I realized I forgot to push the absolute latest code. That is fixed now. The DPS ratios between the weapons wouldn't really change, the numbers will just go up.
Here is Ragebringer and Fang with backstab double attack and without dual wield. The Rogue is level 60, has 255 STR, 100% Haste, and 100 ATK base:
Against a normal level 50 mob with 115 AC:
1. Ragebringer Primary - 109 DPS with Backstab and the + 40 ATK.
2. Vyemm Fang Primary - 110 DPS with Backstab.
Against a 60+ mob with 400 AC and 200 AGI:
1. Ragebringer Primary - 74 DPS with Backstab and the + 40 ATK.
2. Vyemm Fang Primary - 74 DPS with Backstab.
It looks like the lower Backstab damage from Fang is offsetting Fang's better autoattack DPS. Ragebringer does do significantly more backstab damage. It looks like Ragebringer is doing around 80k damage via backstab, vs 45k damage via Vyemm Fang against the level 50 mob.
This is probably why swapping Ragebringer to mainhand for backstabs is a good idea when using Fang. I can't imagine the small loss in autoattack DPS from the swap would offset the higher backstabs.
