I'm new to ACT so I'd like to ask: how the encounters should be set up to get accurate readings? So far I've mostly been running it stock with encounter end timer at 6 seconds and merging encounters or using the "all" tabs for the whole encounter with no wipes. But I have a feeling that the encounter end timer might be cutting out DoTs and stopping the encounter timer if there are disconnects longer than the stop timer, thus skewing the EncDPS count by reducing off time, but I'm not really sure how it works. Is it better to have a really long end timer to keep everything in one encounter and then end manually? Or if you keep a shorter timer, that you don't worry about, does it still give out accurate readings?
