If the above post was TL;DR for you, here's a summary:

High crit weapons used to be superior for Hysteria because the Base Weapon damage was not considered previously. But now it does. And let's not forget that the multiplier is affected by Power Strength. Therefore weapons with high base damage would scale better than with High Crits.

Therefore Dragon Nikana is the best weapon in terms of raw damage output. If you'd like the CC, Jat Kittag (Its base damage is prettty high too) and Amphis will do nicely too.
