Running hammers w/thunderstruck, justice with burst, provoke with charging up. Have +30% lightning dmg on gear, not counting blessed hammer increases, aiming for more.
Weapon 2: (Sheet DPS = 2,614.1)
2395-2834 Damage
1.00 Attack per Second
+1315-1648 Lightning Dmg
Lightning skills deal 10% more dmg
+7% dmg
+3940 LOH (would re-roll for socket)
1% to chill on hit
Getting hit has change to charge you with lightning, causing you to deal 243% weapon dmg as lightning every second for 5 seconds to nearby enemies.
Given my heavy use of lightning based skills I feel like it probably isn't close, I'm just being thrown off by the sheet DPS and the 40% loss it says I will take for going with weapon 2. Granted, neither the 10% inc lightning dmg nor the lightning proc are accounted for in comparisons. However, the massive loss of strength is a real concern in my mind. And losing 200k in front page Damage is also terrifying.
Anyone with advice or more insight than I have?
