I would go with the bigger offhand hits for less DS damage, etc. I don't follow the woodsman's staff cult following, though, but I will have to level my ranger and parse to see for sure. On paper, fast one handers appear to deal a lot more damage than the staff simply because two-handers have crappy damage bonuses at this point in the timeline.

Fun fact: Did you know that at level 50, with a damage bonus of 8, a Revultant Whip will cause around 650 damage per minute on a dark blue con mob, at 50% haste, just using its damage bonus by itself? There's a reason the mosscovered branch got nerfed to offhand only.
