Here's a comparison i can give for a specific point.

 

At level 130 i made the switch between IB/BB to a DB build.  My IB build had 42 luck and 100 str, my DB build has 100 int/95 vit and 103 dex.

 

With my red twin edge +5 tripple insecticide vs scaraba's i was dealing about 23k damage with IB + 4-6k from BB's that actually worked (frustrating skill to use honestly).  All of this keep in mind is melee range.  All of my gear at this time was + str or + agi/luk

 

Now with my DB build using erde +5 Expert archer 3/4 2x Archer skeleton (prettymuch same damage as 4x Archer Skel pike or Main gauche except you get +50 sp that is modified by your max % sp gear) and related hp/SP increase gears (no +9 carat helm, just +7 turkey with old arta card from IB/BB, peco peco valk armor, regular variant shoes, 2x ur's with only +150 sp chants) im doing about 26k to targets that i have no elemental bonus against, whereas im doing anywhere from 32-41k against targets that are weak to water or fire.

 

Moral of the story?  IB and DB cast at about the same speed, one is melee and one is ranged.  DB opens up more options vs fire and water weak enemies, while limiting you very very slightly against monsters that have natural resists vs those damage types (not many).  I'd recommend having about 45k hp and 2k sp before making a switch from IB/BB to DB though.

 

Also keep in mind that for IB/BB you need to swap gear a lot more than you do with DB for whatever enemy you are fighting.  I had 3 different red twin edges for all the monsters i leveled on.... for DB i just have an erde and a hodremlin valk shield now so i no longer have to think about gear swapping as much.

You forgot the most important part. IB has a cooldown, DB has a delay only. Makes DB much better.
