You continue to reply to my posts despite me asking you not to, lol. Whatever. However, you are the target of the trolls. I have never been attacked, and VERY rarely in 13 years of lurking and reading have I seen others attacked in normal gameplay conversations. Honestly, these forums have seen less of good discussion with these "DSM" threads. Good honest questions, good answers mostly, then you post, and it's usually fine. However, once you are disagreed with, you begin trying to refute anything that is contrary to what you're saying. Which makes people want to laugh, point and troll. Then the thread devolves into exactly this.

This is just an opinion. You DO NOT have to respond to it, quoting me and then continuing to be the white knight of saving these forums. If you truly care, let it go.
I appreciate your opinion. I am giving you mine. Letting the trolls run rampant is the problem, whether you agree with that or not.

If you want to solve the problem, talk to the trolls. If you don't, then you will unfortunately see this issue continue. They will not stop if I leave, they will simply find a new target. That is how they operate.

For DPS, what is a greater contributing factor, given similar gear levels? Better worn haste, or better damage/delay on weapons? I have never played anything but casters, and don't understand the math really. Like 36% haste vs 41%, or 5 more base damage or 5 less delay. I do want to learn. I am leveling a monk whos 53 with a T-staff, and its faster and has a great proc, but with the same haste (CocW) why is it more dps than a 38/40? I know that 0.966 is > than 0.95, but it seems that max hits would be more. Is there a calculating best dps for dummies? =)
An easy starting point is weapon ratios.

Lets look at a cracked staff. 5 damage, 32 delay.

You divide 5/32 to get the ratio of 0.156

Haste reduces the delay of the weapon. An FBSS has 21% worn haste. If you divide 32 by 1.21, you get a new delay of 26.44.

Your cracked staff's ratio is now 5/26.44 = 0.189.

You can do these calculatuons with whatever weapon. Bigger ratio is generally better.
