So, if I understood this right, Level 30 Intrepid Slash with a (Boosted) Fast(5) sword does (210% * 3 * num_targets) damage every 690ms, making
913% total damage per second if one enemy (assuming no Enrage, also leaving Final Attack aside for now)
1826% if two enemies
2739% if three
Mihile's Soul Driver does, at level 5, 250% * 4 * num_targets every 1350ms, making
740% total damage per second if one enemy
1480 if two
2220 if three
2960 if four
3700 if five
So ghostofhalo is correct in saying it takes 4 targets to outdo IS.
Right now my SD is only level 3, so 190% *4 per enemy, same slow speed. So I need 5 enemies to outdo IS.
And if I happen to have CO, which affects IS but not SD, I might as well not bother using SD at all.
*sigh*
I suppose I must level it to 5, then.
