Since I lack the 08s spear for the best stat weight, which variant is best at this stage? The higher crit? Thanks in advance!
In my opinion, the difference is rather minimal. You either lose about 100 DH to gain 100 crit, or the other way around.

According to Nemekh's spreadsheet about stat tiers
At 2000 crit, gaining 100 crit translates into +0.71% damage.
At 1500 DH, gaining 100 DHit translates into +0.65% damage.

You're potentially losing 0.06% damage multiplier before raid buffs. If you're doing around 6k DPS right now, you'd gain 3.6 DPS by going the crit way.
So... Pick whatever floats your boat /the cheapest / easiest to get, you won't see the difference anyway.
