What Is Better?

so I have no idea which one is better, i can jitter click pretty well so the super fast attack speed is very convenient for me and it gives me +5 agility points too! so i can't really choose :/

Spoiler: the weapons

 

I'd go with Almuj Daggers. Stylist's Scissors has really bad spells while Almuj's Daggers has speed, agility, and good melee and spell damage (put a thunder powder on it instead).

 

Well, I'd go with Stylist's Scissors. Even with two unused powder slots it has a much higher dps (already including poison for Almuj's Daggers), better spells, xp + loot bonus and with two powders it will become even better. While Almuj's Daggers only has the 5 agility (which don't matter much) and 14% walk speed.
This is how you can compare the damage of two weapons (not considering things like damage boosting ids):
Calculate average damage per hit:
Stylist's Scissors: (28 + 48 + 18 + 54) / 2 = 74
Almuj's Daggers: (7 + 11 + 5 + 15 + 8 + 12) / 2 = 29
Multiply it with the attack speed:

Spoiler: Attacks per second

Super Fast: 4.3
Very Fast: 3.1
Fast: 2.5
Normal: 2.05
Slow: 1.5
Very Slow: 0.83
Super Slow: 0.51
According to this thread.

Stylist's Scissors: 74 * 2.05 = 151.7
Almuj's Daggers: 29 * 4.3 = 124.7
This is your melee dps without considering identifications, skill points and such things. Your spell damage is also proportional to these values, so Stylist's Scissors has not only higher dps, but also better spells.
Now we can also take poison and attack speed bonus into consideration (which only affect melee dps).
Stylist's Scissors: 74 * 2.5 (one tier higher attack speed) = 185
Almuj's Daggers: 124.7 + 40 / 3 (poison damage per second) = 138.03
Stylist's Scissors is still better, even without powders.

 

whoa thanks, that's a very in dept explanation, very useful.

 

an easy way to compare weapons accurately is to bonk them onto wynndata and checking the numbers there
stylist's vs almuj's and what do u know it about matches the explanation the other dude gave on this thread, making stylist's scissors stronger in terms melee and spells. on top of base damage, stylist's also comes with 2 powder slots instead of just 1 like almuj's, so you can add more base damage from powders and ofc access the powder specials if u have enough high tier powders to spare

 

just use http://wynndata.tk and see both dps
