No it will not. You are incredibly lucky if you see 1 double damage proc before the aftermath wears off. Your cloudsplitter will be 400-600 damage behind your rampage. (600-800 behind on anything with shell or magic defense bonus) So you need 5-7 double damage procs to beat rampage. At a 30% activation rate that's more than 15-21 swings of just the main hand weapon in 30 seconds to beat rampage. Or about the same speed as hundred fists.

Farsha is absolutely worthless except as a high base damage weapon for rampage, and several other weapons beat it there too. I feel sorry for anyone that wastes time getting it. I feel really sorry for those poor stupid bastards that went to all the trouble of getting an Alard's axe.
You have no cloudsplitter set and you are not paying attention.

Cloudsplitter has both str and mnd mods at a higher rate than rend's chr mod. Also the tp modifiers are higher, even though 100% is a little lower. and Cloudsplitter has Aftermath.

The 1200+ rampages outside abyssea are not on anything close to an even match. if you want anything EM or higher, Your rampages will not often break 800. They certainly don't AVERAGE 1200. Whereas the magical WS will be consistent.
