:o
The best damage combination.

Hmm
Virulent Quills is quite a lot better when paired with EV as it poisons everyone with the explosions and the poison is stronger (Vengeful has lower damage overall and it will often hit less people due to only one secondary per primary hit). If you use winmillion it is also faster to hit all the quills (though as Draycos has said any autogun is better than both of the swords).

Winmillion?
Is Winmillion's first stroke really fast or something? Its combos are slower than a brandish's:

Hmm
It may have a slower combo but I am counting the hits, which winmillion can put out at decently rate (not the best but I like the "hipster" weapons, where is my winbillion OOO?). While DVS might put out 10 hits it often will miss a few ghost blades. What I love about quills is no matter the damage a quill will break. Any quill type works well with winmillion if you can constantly hit with the disks.

Does anyone else think that the winbillion/winfinity will be released during the inevitable sworder update?
I do.

The reason I chose DVS is it has a higher damage output than an autogun on the non-charge attack, and the number of hits allows it to bypass the terrible 4-hit limit on the Quills. So all 15-odd quills hit, which means 30 hits from quills on single targets plus 10 hits from DVS on everything in its swing radius. Combined with the double chance of poison (quills and DVS) basically anything in that radius that can't dodge or block is dead, especially if you have the right sprite harness. Works best on slimes.

Hmm
The problem I see with that is that you are most likely only going to hit a few people with quills, which means the rest of them must rely on DVS to poison them. While with virulent you only need to pop one quill explosion to get high poison on everyone. If you shoot quills followed by a quick shot of a autogun it guarantees that everyone is poisoned (as long as this combo happens in a EV).
I love my winmillion but even I must say it is really only good for quill hitting, even then it gets outclassed by a autogun and WHB (DVS might outclass it if the ghost blades hit a bit more).

My random guess
Blitz + Blitz + Blitz + Blitz

But Constructs. And Slimes.

Nothing beats a Vortex Bomb and a Brandish line 5* charge. It's the absolute (hands down) strongest combination in the game. Not to mention it can be combined with pet ultimates pretty easily. If using EV and combustion is an option this has the additional bonus of applying all damaging status (Not that it matters since the mobs are likely dead already) to a lot of mobs at once.
Blitz is strong but it is limited due to its lack of ability to hit enemies beyond the ones in its sights while a Combustion charge can annihilate rows of mobs gathered up by a vortex.
I think an autogun would do better than a DVS...
