I'm glad I'm not going to deal with this after the update.

Now I thought this was obvious, but once again everything I have said and am about to say is based on damage while in Hysteria. This means usefulness of the weapon outside Hysteria was not considered.

In regards to DPS, Hysteria's attack speed is unaffected by your weapons attack speed or attack speed mods so every weapon results in the same attack speed. An increase in damage per hit leads to a proportional increase in DPS.

Atterax isn't much better than DC or PDC while in Hysteria but it is better. Atterax does 7218.88 at max power strength while the DC and PDC only do 7125.28.

All numbers I posted are Average Damage per hit. This was determined using the formula of...

(BaseDamage * Chance Normal Attack) + (BaseDamage * Crit1 Chance * Crit1 Multiplier) + (BaseDamage * Crit2 Chance * Crit2 Multiplier) = Average Damage per Hit

Until the update that makes Hysteria treat mods the way Exalted Blade does the best weapon for doing damage while in Hysteria will always be...

Scindo Prime with the Manticore skin using PressurePoint, SpoiledStrike, OrganShatter and TrueSteel.
