lw too slow
No?!? Max Smite speed is easy to reach with LW! U never need to switch to salvation...and always have Fanatism Aura including the IAS. U only need some Ias from items (i prefer 2x 15Ias/15@ jools).

it only surpasses grief in case grief's 75% cb setup was at a worst case scenario
No?!? Recalculate ur sequence without Worst Case Scenario.
Vs. Meph with 20% DR it would be a factor for Grief 75% CB of:
Average CB-Damage = (1-((12,5*0,8)/100))*75)+((100-75)*1)) /100 = 0,925
Vs. Baal/Dia with 50% DR it would be a factor for Grief 75%CB of:
Average CB-Damage = (1-((12,5*0,5)/100))*75)+((100-75)*1)) /100 = 0,953125
(Formula: (1 - (12,5%CB-Damage*DR)/100))*probability of CB (75%)) + ((100 Hits - 75 Hits)*1 (not applied CB))) / 100 Hits)
Hope its understandable...
With this average CB-Damage u can easy make a sequence under normal circumstances. It implicates a crushing blow on EACH Hit - with an lowered average Damage calculated on an 100 Hit average. With 100% CB u will have full CB-Damage (factor0,9 vs Meph) - with 50% CB u will have only the half CB-Damage (factor 0,95 vs Meph).
With equal Setups: (Astreons offers 4 more combat skills = 60% Ed Smite Bonus + 20 Base Damage from HS), LW offers 1 more Skillpoint through Mara, all sequences with Fanatism:
all sequences with Fanatism (if someone needs i can repost the sequences)Grief vs. Meph: 32 Hits
Astreons vs. Meph: 32 Hits
LW vs. Meph: 33 Hits
Grief vs. Baal: 52 Hits
Astreons vs. Baal: 51 Hits
LW vs. Baal: 53 Hits
Astreons: 32 + 51 + 51 = 134
Grief: 32 + 52 + 52 = 136
LW: 33 + 53 + 53 = 139
With average Damage: Astreons > Grief > LW
Worst Case: Astreons > Grief > LW
Best Case for Grief: Grief > Astreons > LW
-> Astreons > Grief > LW (as long as u use Fanatism the whole time!)
Again - if u switch to salvation in Astreons or Grief Setup vs. Meph, LW will surpass both setups! (Grief: 38+52+52 = 142 ; Astreons: 38+51+51 = 140; LW: 33+53+53 = 139 )

Why its not an argument?
If u use salvation, u have to do a new calculation where grief is only on "Place 3" from these 3 Weapons. (~ -500% are a lot!)
