Archer/Slinger %DPS comparison: 1st-4th job

Yeah...how can you include expertise when it only affects range and not % output? O_o

An approximation.

With 60% mastery, total damage has an arbitrary multiplier of 1.54
With 90% mastery, total damage has an arbitrary multiplier of 1.81
1.81/1.54 = 1.175
Adding 10 attack is anywhere from a 4% to a 10% increase depending on equips and apples - that gives anywhere from a 1.22x to 1.29x multiplier. I used 1.25x, which is somewhere in the middle of that range.

Slightly rough, but 4% either way won't make much of an impact on the ranking.

The real reason why BMs have a better overall damage output is because Hurricane + Hurricane > Cannon + Rapid Fire
