There is some confusion on how haste works. Even without a haste item the Baton is much much better.

For the Mith 2hander 100% haste would give half delay (20), not 0 delay,
50% haste would give a delay of 30.

31% haste gives a delay of 33.8

A 30/40 weapon will outdamage a 21/33.8 weapon significantly at all levels after lvl 19.

What?
100% haste on a 40 delay weapon makes it a 20 delay weapon.
50% haste on a 40 delay weapon makes it a ~27 (26.667) delay weapon.
31% haste on a 40 delay weapon makes it a ~31 (30.534) delay weapon

The fuck did you come up with those numbers?

haven't looked at haste in a looong time but, i remember item haste affecting damage per hit, not swing delay (swing delay was from spell haste). am i way off with this?

You can argue that haste has no direct effect on delay but increases your number of swings (and as a result lowers your delay accordingly).
