Which is better Between Licorium or Esquim

As the title says....

Licorium Each successive Skill hit deals 10% more damage.

First hit of a Skill applies Mark.

Second hit of a Skill and following hits don't consume Mark

Esqium

On turn start, consume each AP above 4 to gain 50% more damage per AP consumed.

On Virtuose, all hits apply Burn.

Using a Skill that costs less than 4 AP applies Mark to all enemies

Now naturally befitting these weapons coming from Versos drafts and that area in general giving drops focused on Multi hit builds I use those,Frenzy,Feint,Draining cleanse,etc

My question is what does objectively more damage

If my math is right,on its own at max 9 Ap,Esqium gives you a flat 250% damage increase

But Licorium seems to be so much better,despite me seeing people say to use Esqium

Licorium

Mark applies 50% more damage per hit,but with Licorium marks just keep adding on per Skill hit

Whos damage also multiplies by 10% each attack

So Licorium just seems better on paper

Any additions I may be forgetting or am I correct?
