I can't say for certain, but I dicked around with the Magnus Claymore a lot and the WS output was higher than what I had been using at the time, which was a Subduer. And when I say higher, I mean some of my Ground Strikes at 100% and Power Slashes(lol, damn you Razed ruins) broke 2k quite regularly. Course now I get about the same results with the Kriegsmesser(still ever so slightly lower than double damage, yet far more consistent), so I'd assume that with top of the line axes(Guichard's STR path, Farsha, etc.) you'd see the same result as the double damage proc. Plus, even if it is confirmed that it procs DD on WSes, you'd have to mainhand it over things with higher base damage leading to your average WS output going down, because you'll hardly ever have it activate on as many hits as you need it to, to do great damage.
Really fun to *** around with though.
