This thread is moot. I doubt smn will be looked at until 3.0 now and at the point all classes are rebalanced. Vivi, give it more time (another week) before you start going hardcore again with the smn campaign. More data is needed to get the real value of the buff. The biggest flaw in puros chart is that you can fudge easily on it. Those who go in with an ilvl of 120-14 have the best odds due to how he rates and maths the stats. (he weighs ss at .25, det at .25 and crit at .25 - and rightfully so it'd be a lot of work to intrinsically place all values.) In other words melding a plat set + crafted set with pure ss values will yield high returns on ss (netting you a nice .12 increase per stat in damage on a stat that already towers to 1k in certain builds). The best way to win it in other words? crafted, not really bis.

At this point in the meta id actually rate raw dps as a better value either way. rather than calculated dps.

The parse bug im talking about isnt just 10ish. Now I'm not saying this is super common but it happens to two people i play with, the ACT parse will sometimes underestimate smn by a whopping 50-80 dps. Mine does this sometimes, others it doesn't, and I do not change settings between parses... Again not entirely sure why. Could be some setting on my side.
