haste is incredibly important, especially sub 60 when you arent getting raid buffed constantly. the damage output inrease going from 21 haste to 40 haste is.... very easily calculatable. 140/121 is 15% more damage; thats alot. thats more incremental dps than youll get at 60 going from a jade mace primary to a swiftblade of zek primary. as the poster above mentioned... attack is also very important at the high end. generally speaking about 10 atk is 1% increased dps (its much more complicated than this); and once you got your weapons and cap strength and haste, its the last frontier of increasing damage.
