These formulas are inherently flawed as they fail to take into account accuracy. Theoretical damage per second is meaningless if in reality a character misses have the time with a supposedly "faster" weapon. If both weapons have the exact same accuracy modifiers then this forumala would be valid. Often I see to many people overlook the vital importance of accuracy on the quest to obtain an "uber fast" weapon.
