BLM Fire II incredibly lack luster

[Taemek]

No, this is what you're not getting at. You're doing 106 DPS/mob, but doing 320 DPS towards the total 10,000 health. You don't divide 10,000 by 106. You're not doing 106 DPS towards the total health, only per mob. You're doing 320 DPS towards the total, collective, health that 3 mobs share.

You can't seem to wrap your head around something that trivial. You're doing more DPS towards the entire encounter(10,000 HP), but less DPS/mob.


What you don't seem to get is that, DPS per mob means nothing as long as you're doing more collective DPS to the group.


And you still haven't explained where 350 DPS ST comes from.

Either you are trolling or you simply do not understand how DPS is applied across a group of mobs.

Again, for clarity, 320 AoE DPS does not equal 320 DPS per mob in the encounter.


Simple math implies:

Blizzard II hits each mob in an Encounter of 3 mobs for 200 damage each.

200 dmg x 3 mobs / 2.5 cast time = 240 dps encounter wide

240 dps / 3 mobs = 80 dps per mob x 2.5 cast time = 200 dmg per mob


Using the OP's findings:

320 dps / 3 mobs = 106.6 dps per mob x 2.5 cast time = 266 dmg per mob in the encounter.

266 dmg x 3 mobs / 2.5 cast time = 319.2 dps

This is indicative.


You do not measure anything but the time it takes to drop the mobs HP to zero.

You do not cut a mobs HP by a third simple because there is 3. 3 mobs with 10k HP is simply, 3 mobs with 10k hp. You already determined the DPS on one mob in the encounter and since you are hitting all 3 for 106.6dps which is equal to 320 AoE dps, the fight takes 98.3 seconds in total.

Your issue is, you seem to think you are doing 320 dps to each mob in the encounter when you are not. 320 AoE dps is an accumulative amount.
