Grief has damage to demons/level, which makes it better than even a theoretical perfect rare Legendary Mallet.
Depending on your build 2 handers outclass Grief I suppose, but I assume you're speaking about 1 handers.
Not true, on weapon damage is much stronger on Legendary Mallets than Grief PB, it greatly outweighs the demon ED. Demon ED is considered as off weapon ED.

grief outclasses any rares for pvm. rare erep fools weapons may get an advantage in melee pvp because they provide a huge AR boost which results in a higher chance to hit and thus more effective damage. this is however useless in pvm since monsters have quite low def (baal has around 2.8k iirc)
EDIT: 2H builds can be an exception, but there are few viable builds (charger is for pvp, maybe fury druid)
Legendary Mallet is stronger than Grief. Grief builds can still easily compete with Rares because Grief user can use Angelics and has 20 extra native Deadly Strike. Thus Highlords isn’t used in Grief Melee vs Melee.
