DPS is way higher because its delay is over 40 it receives 2H bonus dmg and the proc is unresistable 80 dmg/80 heal. In long fights 10 procs is 800 dmg 800 hp heal whereas a tunare sword is 160dmg druid root which can be resisted and partial damage iirc and if you're fighting a summoning mob that won't really help much. Not to mention it has +25 dex. Unless you are rolling with a shaman 24.7 most SK's don't have max dexterity even with focus buff

Easiest way to look at it is if you want to do grouping crawling then I'd personally go with a tunare sword but it doesn't mean the axe is any less superior...doubling for 300s+ was fun and the faster you kill stuff means you take less damage overall

The Vulak ratio is significantly worse and the proc does half the DD damage of the swords root (which lands even for a tick on a lot of stuff).

There are a lot of reasons why people should prefer the axe. Ratio wise though it’s way closer to the Meljeldin than the Flamberge.
