Refined Solarslayer to use until lvl 80?

With the sale of dragon orbs tonight, along with the fact that I got a Solarslayer mold relatively cheap on AH, and the fact I farmed all the mats, crafted 2 sockets... I'm really inclined to +5 or +6 this thing and bind it and be done with it. Yes, I already have Swiftwind for decomposing, but the HH70 weapons don't seem like they'd be that much better than a refined solarslayer.

I do plan on mostly PvP after I hit 61, so I won't be leveling so hard.

Any thoughts or suggestions?


edit: Oh, would I be better served not binding it then just upgrading to a wind & clouds?

    Wind and the Clouds for grinding is best, for 70s. If you get it to +5 and 2-sharded, it can service well for 80s, too.

    Well I went and +5'd it...

    +5 Solarslayer is 580-1200 + 64 +50= for a total of 694-1314

    Unrefined Thundercrack is 524-1222+ 139 = 663-1361

    Plus I have the random ability to add slow and +hp which is always a bonus, but at a loss of dexterity... hmm... I think that just might hold me off until HH80.

    If this were my main I'd probably do that for a better long term path, but after I hit 61 I plan on rpk'ing my way onto the leaderboard (wishful thinking perhaps) and won't be so concerned with leveling, so having dmg comparable to a TT70 xbow is my best short term option to quick kills.
