Skewer VS Annihilate

My question: how does skewer's DPS compare to Anihillate? (full charges)

I have skewer with the chargeup advantage on my heavy weapon invuln hybrid toon, but with 500 offense, over 300 STR, and 8 stacks enrage it crits under 6k with 98% severity.

I notice the charge time is less than annihilate by a good deal, is it an ok substitute even for single target if I don't want to knock too much?

    charged Skewer base ~377 dps; add 25% from Follow Through
    charged Annihilate base ~365 dps; add ~10% on knock-immune targets

    Skewer becomes a good candidate w/ Follow Through, but then the issue is it not stacking Enrage most of the time (barring the rare case it hits >1 target).

    On the guy I have who uses Skewer I like to alternate it with Eruption when going against a single target.
