Is the Bard 200 weapon worth getting

[NineMurcury]

Hey guys I am in a tight spot I currently have the 190 hive bow which has pretty decent stats and I can't decide if the stat boosts from the 200 bow it's worth getting because it's stats are terrible in terms of what it gives you. any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.

+2 Weapon Damage
+9 DEX
+32 DET
-83 CRIT
+64 SkillSpeed (roughly -0.02 GCD)

... I would take it.

You loose a huge amount of crit that's for sure. Not certain if the +2 damage is a huge change, have any perhaps done tests?
Curious myself as i was just going to go for Hive over the other weapon.

+2 wep damage is worth about 20 mainstat (dex)

I went with it for now until Relic comes out in 3.1. Did not have Hive weapon yet and so the upgrade from my iLv180 was well worth it.
