Evil Bane or Legendary Battle Hammer?

So i just made it to lvl 120 on my DS (and merc earlier today ). now i have to choose between which weapon to use =/. Right now i have the clean Evil Bane (108 atk) or i have a 103 atk, 15% ignore, and +6 dex Legendary Battle Hammer. the battle hammer is normal speed, but it does have the def ignore. which would be able to outdamage the other? esp in LHC or Ludi

so my evil bane should do more damage dps wise, right? might use that then (and its a different look after using that hammer for 20 lvls... hate it's look ha)

[quote=penguinslol2]If I'm not mistaken, the Evil bane is Fast (5), while the Battle Hammer is Normal (6). Given the fact that Battle Pact increases attack speed by 2, and Focused Fury by 1, both weapons would end up at max speed. Thus, the Evil Bane's speed advantage is moot.. I could be wrong though.[/quote]

No. Speed cap is fastest (2). Booster and focused fury bring evil bane down to fastest (2), while battle hammer only goes to fast (3). Evil bane is still a step faster.

Evil bane is better.

The 15% def ignore is nice, but on LHC monsters which have 20% WDEF IIRC, the 15% def ignore potential only gives you about a 3.75% increase in DPM assuming you start with 0% def ignore. Whereas the +1 attack speed from the evil bane is about an 8% (or something like that) increase in DPM against an equivalent normal (6) speed weapon.
