    [QUOTE=winsock;2303019]This isn't correct. Det isnt impacted by mind. An increase in magic dmg increases the effectiveness of det.

    Wrong, but your mistake is very common.
    You have to look at it as overall effect rather, not linear increase.
    For example if 1 det = 1 hp healed for a given spell. When you heal for 100, 1 det is a 1% increase. When you heal for 1000 it is a .1 % increase. While a 1% increase in casting speed INCREASES the HP amount in the same increase in this example. Spellspeed has a diminishing return with itself, but not with MND, WD and DET, it actually an inverse relationship relative value with all 3.

    Using a damage formula from the forum as reference.

    (WD*.2714745 + STR*.1006032 + (DTR-202)*.0241327 + WD*STR*.0036167 + WD*(DTR-202)*.0010800 - 1) * (potency/100)
    As you can see (if you understand PEMDAS), they are clearly diminishing to each other because they are attached only by addition instead of multipliers or fractions.

    Your debating something I don't think you quite understand.

    Just a note, eventually if gear levels got absurdly high (think Ilevel999 or 9999) 1 point of spellspeed would overtake mind, and even weapon damage in value.
