I can't imagine there'd be many situations where meleeing with the hammer is better than spam-clicking JBB, except for the fact that the hammer procs earlier. You could maybe do something sneaky like standing up between ticks to swing at the mob, but that's pretty situational. For straight swing-swing-swing DPS, there's no way you'll get a high enough PPM for it to rival the guaranteed 8-second cast on the bracer, and your plain melee damage is pretty unimpressive without double attack and with a lower weapon skill cap. The hammer is nice, but once you can use JBB, the two become kind of mutually exclusive because you can't really use both at the same time.

As another posted pointed out, you can swing between JBB casts to get extra damage. Also, if you do the math, it's more dps to forgo the JBB altogether and canni/dot more, on mobs where you can canni nonstop without killing yourself.
