Oh this subtle nuance makes absolutely no real-world difference. But since DSM is utterly incapable of admitting he is ever wrong, he's in an all-out fight over whether his Scourge proc does 2.2DPS or 0.75DPS while spamming JBB. Utterly irrelevant.

or 1.46 DPS.

and came up with 0.75DPS.
I find this amusing.

You're still using 2.2DPS for the scourge proc when it should be 0.75DPS.
Bcbrown was the one who started this debate by quibbling over the Scourge proc DPS. I am not sure why he is blaming me for his own "utterly irrelevant" idea. He's the one in an all-out fight. I am just showing you why you are wrong.

Bcbrown is complaining about subtlety, while simultaneously trying to Shave 1 DPS off of the JBB Shaman in this post in a clear attempt to "win" or "not be wrong": https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=523 .

This is clearly projection. I factually admitted to being wrong in this very thread when you pointed out I missed the meditation mana in my older calculations. It's trivial to disprove this kind of strawman nonsense. Making a mistake in a math calculation does not mean I have to automatically concede my entire argument. Troxx had incorrect math calculations too, but I don't see you applying the same accusations to him.

Bcbrown forgets that I am not including white damage from the Shaman hitting the mob while trying to proc, which means you would probably still end up with roughly 2 DPS at minimum using both of his DPS numbers. Regardless of whether his Binomial Distribution math is correct or not, he isn't getting his desired outcome of decreasing the JBB Shaman's DPS numbers enough to give the DoT Shaman the edge. The JBB Shaman's numbers are actually higher since I used a lower PPM value and didn't include white damage, but I don't need to change the existing numbers. The JBB Shaman is already winning with the lower 2.2 DPS value.

He is also mixing Normal Distributions and Binomial Distributions, which I have called him out on multiple times. My calculations are all using Normal Distributions.

The data fully supports my claim that JBB is the best leveling tool from 45-60 without Epic.
