^ If you'd paid half attention, you'd realize that the automatic damage/dps calculators are, once again, completely FUBAR with regard to calculating for a strange weapon.

Exhibit #1:  It shows the fire rate as 1.0, whereas it should be showing 10.0 with this build.

Exhibit #2:  It doesn't/can't take the headshot buff into account.

OP actually posted a very good build for Knell.

Burst/DPS/Sustained being equal in this case (assuming you're keeping the buff maxed) = 168,159.

It's not the highest burst in the game. Off the top of my head, Pyrana can hit around 190k burst for instance (and others may be higher).

It is, however, almost certainly the highest non-melee sustained DPS in the game (not counting exalted weapons of course, some of which can hit north of a million sustained DPS).
