IFS has a slightly better ratio but 30 delay is about as close to the damage bonus sweet spot as you can get.
Regardless, I’ve always considered IFS the superior weapon because:
A) 4 weight vs 10 (that’s a huge difference)
B) it doesn’t look like dog shit
C) better ratio while also being slower; far fewer ripostes taken; your own ripostes do more dmg; less damage shield eaten
Right now, having owned both I can say that IFS isn’t far behind TStaff at all. TStaff right now is competitive with epic/SoS combo. On average it’s ever so slightly behind but that’s going to change in a big way with new damage bonus tables ... even more so when you consider monks get triple attack innately at 60.
