whirlwind axe vs ravenger axe



i spent a lot of time and money getting my whirlwind axe for which i am
very fond.

however, now im venturing in to SM and have seen the potential delights
of boss drops from Herod in ARM i am thinking .....are the days of
whirlwind numbered ? and long live the ravenger axe ?

Or do i use both,

any similar experiences or comments on either would be great before i
spam "neeeeed" on the drop.

Ps its a bad habit of mine, but i pass on all the main drops if they
are not mail armour or weapon of use to me..before i get accused of
ninja tactics..
