Autocultivation + weapon durability

I have looked through the forums trying to find if anyone else had questioned this, but have yet to find my answer. I have two characters I farm with for auto culti, and have noticed that my sin's daggers will degrade far quicker than my barbs axes. Granted my daggers have 302 durability while the axes have 420, but starting them at the same time, on similar mobs, my sin will always use up her weapon durability before my barb will use up 302 durability.. I understand my sin will kill more mobs in this time, but she also has +7 daggers, barb only has +5 axe... so I would think that my sin would need less hits to kill, thus using less durability than my barb. However I have sat a few minutes and watched how long it takes for a durability to be used on each and my sin still uses her's far quicker. Is there a reason for this, or something I can do to help her from having to town tele every 4 or so hours to repair?

    Sin makes more attacks. Each hit damages the weapon durability. Different grade weapons will have different durability also.

    It's basic math. If you were to count how many hits your sin makes per hour, and count the barbs for the same, you would find that the sin makes a greater number of hits, thus requiring repairs sooner.

    Start auto-culti with chill of the deep, gives you 10 minutes of decreased weapon consumption.
    I'm used to going to city very very often. I usually set my character to auto-culti while flying (Otherwise it eventually gets stuck in the scenario -.-")
