Fire Mage Weapon decision

[Deleted]

Today i got a new Weapon -> Rathrak (The Dagger)
Old weapon -> Lightning Rod
Both are from Normal Mode

So i reforged twice for both weapons and screened my Stats:


For Rathrak.... it did 150k Dmg over 282 seconds -> ~ 530 DPS

i cant decide between the Weapons, but i prefer the Lightning Rod -> Stats on the right

Please help me,
Thanks

I'm assuming that your numbers for Rathrak was done on a target dummy?

Realistically, it's a bit fight dependant. Rathrak is an AE proc, so on fights where you do a notable amount of that (H-Yor'sahj comes to mind) it'll probably excel. On single target fights like Ultrax, the lightning rod is probably a touch better. Neither are poor options however.
