My stats in the 15/14/1 MM/rgr/rs are only a tiny bit higher than yours but I parse around the 1400~1500 on the dummy with it, the build has a wide varience of damage and in the first 20s of combat I am parsing just over 1800 due to using cooldowns available if I pop them (Which I usually do).
However, I like you do not like this build and I use 15/10/5 mm/nb/rs (Don't need sab I'm too close to soft cap on crit so I go for heavier AP)
I parse around the same with this build than I do with the ranger build (Note that is without pc crystal as I believe this may change everything)
AP Scaling matters greatly and you have a fair bit, however since you have under the 830ap threshold where skills start changing to what is the highest dps the ranger build in all sense "should" be higher.
The only thing I can imagine is that you are AP low on items, Dex heavy and this build gives you a much higher critical rate so you are seeing RNG in your favour.
To make the 14ranger/51Marksman/1x build work you really need the crystal bonus from at least the 4pc t3 set, ideally the 4pc HK set and the Predatory Greater.
In short if the 5dex gives you the bonus you need then use it, but really you will do better for your raid by spending those 10 points in assasin

It's critical maxed the max, which should compliment the other parts of your build (but you could try swapping the 15% dex for 15% ap to see how you peform)
The 5% critical debuff works for any damage vs the target, which you can apply for burn phases in 20 man raids, it also gets you Expose Weakness. Fun times.
