Black Mage Sanctuary - A Guide to DPS

[Garotte14]

The stat weight of .38 was refuted and revised down a long time ago on reddit, and even then the guy never actually posted his data which was why it was always suspect. He disappeared shortly after. Just as suspect as the other guy on here saying that it was .23, who literally pulled the numbers from thin air.

He did show his data and his work. I even have a copy of it.

I'm not sure about the .23 thing, but I pulled a number out of thin air as well when I wrote the guide. Well it wasn't really thin air, but based solely on my experience with the game and class and how SS affected my actual parses. I predicted SS to have a stat weight of .275. And this was 8 months ago. Of course no one believed me because I didn't have hard data to back that up, and I don't blame them. I only really tried to argue the fact that SS was rated so high, because well...it is.

Who, the .38 guy? Would be interested to see it. I know he posted his methodology but never posted his raw data and sim iirc.

The .23 thing was someone else iirc. But no stat weight can be considered accurate without any math behind it.
