I'm yet to see a "convincing" WWS parse showing 15/51/5 as an overwhelming spec. For me 18/51/2 performs above 15/51/5.
I'm also seeing a DPS increase when switching to 18/51/2.
Basically it increases the percentage of armor-ignoring damage you do, and that's also why it's value starts to diminish once you near the ArP cap.
