Now lets take a quick look at some of the end game WL axes:
[EDIT: these numbers are without any talis or crit chance]
Chraceaxe of the Sandstorm
79.8 Dps
3.2 Speed
+ 75 Strength
+ 5 Melee Critical Chance
+ 65 Melee Power
=> Pure dps: +107,8 dps(ability dps) + 14 auto attack dps
Akure, the Destroyer
82.7 Dps
3.9 Speed
+ 52 Strength
+ 35 Melee Power
=> Pure dps: +100,1 dps + 8,7 auto attack dps
Arethel, Fury of the White Wave
87.0 Dps
3.4 Speed
+ 68 Strength
+ 28 Wounds
+ 46 Weapon Skill
=> Pure dps: +100,6 dps + 6,8 auto attack dps.
As stated before Arethel is more or less a fail axe compared to the 2 lotd axes. The only good thing about Arethel is the proc slow.
If we compare Arethel with Akure you just need a +3 str/melee power tali to make Akure better and ofc you can slot undefendable proc/crit talis in Akure.
If we look at Akure vs the chraceaxe you need slot +39 str/melee power to out dps the chraceaxe. Ofc if we factor in the +5 melee crit on the chraceaxe the difference goes up to around 115 str/MP (in a non-crit/loner/pack synergy build). [EDIT: Note: if you go for a crit/loner/pack synergy build then the crit value rises]
If we look at Arethel vs the chraceaxe and factor in the ws, the chraceaxe is still better on high armour targets because of the higher baseline dps. Ofc against low armour targets the the chraceaxe gets even better compared to Arethel. When we add the the chraceaxe +crit its just a way better axe.
Note: the autoattack speed dps is only important if you are running a autoattack build and then its very important.
