Butcher's Block... worthless.

Except that the math you are using suggests equal str/wpndmg/det.
It isn't taking into account an i55 Tanking weapon vs i90 DPS weapon which the two are entirely different.

They are not different. The deviation by job is to the tune of 1-2% and may well be a flat additive factor. All physical jobs, including tanks, ranged, and melee DPS, have the same damage formula. How you've missed this fact in the past 6 months is beyond me.

That only further serves my argument that there is literallyno reason to complain because it means nothing changed.

So nothing at all would change if you made Twintania die in one hit when geared players attack it, because lol they could do it anyway? Hell, you seem to begrudge the act of even playing the game; why don't we just hand you the rewards and send you on your merry little way?
