Longfang over Burst? Why?

So I'm looking at the various SoA DPAs and noticed that Burst had a much better DPA than Longfang, because Longfang has a 2s activation vs 1s for Burst. Is that right? Both Mids' and CoD agree on that stat. All other numbers being equal (and they are... actually, I think the -def from burst lasts an extra 3s...), why would anyone take Longfang over Burst?

Wow, that sucks. Still, redraw isn't adding a full second to your attack animation. Burst has almost Blaster tier 3 DPA (actually better than Power Burst or Shout, worse than Blaze, BIB & Blazing Arrow).

I'll have to try a dual build or load up test once my VEAT hits 24 and I go Crab. Burst might be worth keeping, redraw and all.

I kept it for my crab since their single target DPS aint that great it's good to have for bosses etc, redraw be damned.
