hadriel Wrote:[MENTION=2375]Mazz[/MENTION]; Sorry left that message earlier 'cause I was in a rush. Number puncher here to the rescue. Pray that my tables don't fail me again. See this post for the method I'm using.
This table below is for without any Nebs i.e. if you junked your current Neb.
Leafre Phantom Blow Hyper Ambition Lightwash Total PDR on UI PDR Reduction Factor 30% 30% 20% 10% 15% 105% 0.2999
Your current boss damage/blah blah is 209%, so your effective damage rate is 3.09 instead of 1, which is multiplied into your range (which is irrelevant here).
The table shows your effective damage rate factoring in %Boss/blah, PDR and IgnorePDR.
PDR No Nebs 21% IgnorePDR (Now) 20% Boss 10% 299.73 301.68 319.13 25% 285.83 290.70 304.33 35% 276.57 283.38 294.47 50% 262.67 272.40 279.67 70% 244.14 257.76 259.94 100% 216.34 235.80 230.34 120% 197.80 221.16 210.61 150% 170.01 199.19 181.01 180% 142.21 177.23 151.41
As you can see, at a boss with 70%PDR, there's not that much difference (well... 2% more for 20%Boss). Everything below goes to the %Boss Nebulite, and everything after goes to IgnorePDR Nebulite. The breakpoint is actually 78.5%PDR, but whatever.
The rationalisation for this is because your effective gain with the %Boss Nebulite is 3.29/3.09 = 1.0647 i.e. 6.47% increase in DPS, and that is constant for all bosses. That's not a lot, in contrast to taking away a chunk of a boss with massive PDR; at 100%PDR, we're talking about a PDR-ed damage rate of 0.7001 to 0.7631 with the IgnorePDR Nebulite, about an 8.5% increase in DPS from no Neb. This increase scales with the boss's PDR; for the record at 10%, 50%, 150% and 180% PDR, the increase in DPS from IgnorePDR Neb is 0.65%, 3.70%, 17.17% and 24.63%, respectively.

Thank you so much!
Damn, I had no idea it would be so close at ~70% @_@ Makes this decision a little more difficult then, I'll very rarely be killing any bosses with over 70% PDR but the damage difference with a nebulite is pretty huge for Chaos Pink Bean.. it also occurred to me just now that since Nexon fixed the Root Abyss set equips to give base ignore PDR and boss damage, my stats will be slightly different. I'll have 30% more PDR and 40% more boss damage base... if you get a chance would you be able to help once more?
