Well, that would be correct (in my eyes) in terms of the normal attack combo only (and considering all gears acquired, esp. knuckle gear)
But in terms of DPS across all PA's as well, IMO, it's either Double Sabers or Knuckles. Double Sabers can dish out looooots of numbers combined with Tornado Dance and/or Deadly archer + DS gear, but knuckles
can do damage equivalent to 2 or 3 hits of some double saber PA's OR MORE, per hit of some PA.
I reckon, in the short term, knuckles would be better but in the long run, Double sabers would be better for damage output.
However I wouldn't say Double Sabers would be better
overall; from experience, none of its attacks can be cancelled while they're being performed, neither do many of them have parrying properties (I've only seen acro effect do that). It's for this reason that I never boss with a double saber, which sucks since I need to kill a fang banther on VH with double sabers for the extra 5 SP... (only for the killing part, that is...not the whole fight
)
They do nuke the little critters quite well though, :P
TL;DR - DS has great potential, but it's either you dish, or you miss.
