Sad to say, that's not a big enough improvement to make them useful. If you convert 29-36k to dps, it's around 46000 dps.
Dusk's thread compares level 200s, so dropping that to 180 is a matter of -100 primary stat, plus -15 due to MW30. From a primary stat around 1130 for phys. classes, that drops to 1010 or so, for a 10.7% damage discount.
Taking that into account, there's a factor of 0.447 to throw in.
So for direct comparison, divide 46k by 0.447 = 103000. Compare:
+ Corsair 174000
+ Night Lord 145000
+ Bowmaster 135000
+ Marksman 124000
+ Hero 112000
+ Dark Knight 111000 (Berserk)
= Arch Mage F/P 103000
- Buccaneer 102000
- Shadower 90000
- Paladin 75000 (I believe HH does a constant 80,000 DPS so that factors in by replacing 12% of Blasts -> 75600 dps)
This allows them to beat 3 classes who weren't there for dps in the first place...
