@iAmFear; To be a little more precise, it depends on your total WA and total primary stat before any %blah, and figuring out the relative benefits of one EQ over another. The %blah simply amplifies that benefit. The complication comes from the fact that the variables are non-separable...
By a good approximation, we can ignore the contribution from DEX, so x is all STR sources, y is %STR, a is all WA sources, b is %ATT:
(x*y)*((a+4)*b) < ((x+6)*y)*((a*b)
y and b are unchanged, so the inequality reduces to:
x*(a+4) < (x+6)*a
base component of x*a is unchanged, so it cancels out, and we now compare marginal benefits.
4x < 6a => a > 2x/3
Just how little STR or how much effective WA do you have on your Kaiser before %blah?? Or do you have so much DEX it no longer becomes small? My Lumi has about 1.5k INT after all the %blah, but I'm hardly close to 1000 MA! Clearly something is wrong... did you forget to tell us anything or did I forget to consider something? 1000 base stats with 100% stat => 2000 stat on your screen, and 6 stat => 12 effective stat, but the ratios are still identical i.e. 6/1000 == 12/2000. It takes a hell of an amount of WA for 1WA = 1.5 STR.
edit: if you want I can work out all the variables on your Kaiser with a few numbers. All I need are 4-6 instances of your max range with 1) no buffs, 2) with NW only, 3) with a WA buff only, 4) a %dmg/%att source only. I can deal with some mix-and-match but they can't mix up too much. You can do the same thing fully buffed then taking away individual buffs too, which is more realistic in battle, but at least tell me what you're buffed with. Uh... maybe you should tell me your DEX on-screen too.
