Hey guys
I am wondering if there are some maths gurus out there who can assist me?
Im trying to balance my stats using some simple formula to calculate how much average damage i would be doing with a particular spell.
i picked shock as it was easy to calculate, but ideally i would like to use force lightning as its what i use the most
average dmg: noncrit damage * (1 + (crit rate * crit multi)) = average dmg including crits
My stats are (self buffed):
Willpower : 1582
Power : 400
Force Power: 1217
Crit Rating : 281 (25.82%)
Surge : 342 (76.36%)
Alacrity : 198 (none from item modification)
Expertise : 525 (10.53%)
So for shock its:
1357 * (1 + (0.2582 * 0.7636)) = 1624.54818264
So is that correct?
Also, Im a PVP'er and im trying to decide which relic to use, looks like i should use the pvp relic which gives power (+355) over the one which crit/surge (+220), even tho my crit chance is low!?
with self buffs + crit/surge relic (+220) + rakata power adrenal (+565):
crit chance: 31.36%
crit multi : 79.06%
shock : 1527
crit : 2734.2462
average dmg: 1527 * (1 + (0.3136 * 0.7906)) = 1905.59240832
with self buffs + power relic (+355) + rakata power adrenal (+565):
crit chance: 25.82%
crit multi : 76.36%
shock : 1622
crit : 2860.5592
average dmg: 1622 * (1 + (0.2582 * 0.7636)) = 1941.79598544
Finally, to me looks like i should lower *something to increase crit, but that it likely power and according to my maths it lowers my average damage
thanks for reading, any assistance greatly appreicated!
