Dusk Wrote:Found a quick solution for DoT:
The least common multiple of all F/P timers is 120 seconds. So for 120 seconds of Paralyze spam, I figure how many times each DoT will be cast and add that to the total "cycle" time. The end result for Paralyze DPS becomes (spam DPS)*(120/(120+8*Fire Demon cast time+4*Meteor cast time....and so on)).
I don't think that's totally accurate but it's what I'm using for now.
How often do Battle Mages Teleport? I find it difficult to do more than Attack -> Teleport -> Finisher, especially at Faster (2) speed.
For DoT what I did for my calculations is this:
1. Suppose a stipulated simulation time (say 120 seconds like you said)
2. Consider you will be using each DoT attack as soon as it wears off
3. Divide the simulation time by the delay between casts of the DoT skill (say 120/15 for Fire Demon)
4. That number is the number of times you'll use fire demon during the simulation.
5. Multiply that by the cast time of the DoT skill.
6. Repeat steps 2-5 for each DoT skill.
7. Add up all those times and subtract them from the simulation time. The remainder is the time you'll have to use your main skill (big bang or paralyze with teleport)
Finally you can add up however many times each skill was used, multiply by their damage and then divide by the simulation time to have the DPS. For DoT DPS just add up the DPS from each skill.
