My theory is that 100 Potency isn't an *1 Modifier. It's closer to 1.005, or 1.005/100 = 0.01005 per point of Potency.

10 = 0.1005
20 = 0.201
30 = 0.3015
40 = 0.402
50 = 0.5025
60 = 0.603
70 = 0.7035
80 = 0.804
90 = 0.9045
100 = 1.005
150 = 1.5075
200 = 2.01

179.5 (minimum DB damage to match observations) divided by 1.005, times .3015 to get to 30 potency Mutilate dot makes 53.85, but I observed 53's. And they had to be low 53s, too, to be the full spread against the 58 maximum. And the 58 maximum only brings me to 195 instead of 198. This is with a small amount of SS boosting the Mutilate numbers, too.

So, I'm stepping through crit values now, and it looks like it takes about 521 rating before you get back to a x1.5 multiplier for damage.

Oh., i forgot to mention that my damage model minuses 1 at the end of the total calculation

But if you're going to minus something at the end anyway, wouldn't it be a simpler assumption that the potency numbers are a straight multiplier and that there's a non-1 subtraction at the end? >_>
