You won't see a whole lot of boasting on these forums, we're pretty much here to discuss issues, techniques andways to help our profession. Add the fact that server resource pools are different and comparing weapons across these boards is pointless.
I imagine I speak for alot of the folks on this board when I say that the 'best' weapon is very subjective.
What good would a double capped FWG5 do a swordsman? Or, for that matter, a double capped FWG5 for someone grinding through pistoleer that needs to hit as fast as possible to keep up with spin groups? Would a PvP'er prefer a high min. damage weapon or a low SAC? Is the end-user wanting to 2-shot kill critters or solo a high-end MOB?
What I'm getting at is that there is no 'best' weapon, but best weapons for the situation, tastes and playstyles of the end user...sometimes it can also be weapons, too.
Most of us here have had people come to us--loot in hand--and asked us to build them a weapon that has stats we personally would not want, but s/he's the customer and that's what s/he think's is 'best' for them.
Sorry, I don't have any numbers for you, but if you came to me wanting the 'best' weapon I could build, we would have a long chat about what you wanted out of the weapon and go from there.
