DPS performance against raid targets is in-scope for this discussion.

Good to know. That wasn't noted in your original message.

Typically a level 51 Ranger is going to be using weapons to level. Raids typically don't want level 51 Rangers DPSing, and will ask you to switch to another character instead. It isn't a leap to assume you are mostly leveling at this stage.

You've been talking a lot about your damage formula but you haven't done anything to answer the original question: which of those five weapons should I be using? The question has been answered to my satisfaction (keep using the Woodsman's Staff), but if you want to talk about your formula, you should explain how it answers my question.

You should actually read my posts and you'd have that answer. You can use a damage calculator and a formula to figure out which weapons have better DPS. DPS is a factor in determining which weapon to use.

Please read next time.
