    Well, the best I can get without just making a whole new AP/Det point and trying again is the 2.4 doing about 87% of the damage of the 2.72 when it should in theory be just over 88%. That's using Venom and Venom+DE numbers to weed out some rounding issues. I mean, that's still pretty close, but I'm not yet willing to say they're equal. I might go get a whole new data set, though…

    Well, my only assumption going in was that a higher Auto-attack stat would lead to a higher auto-attack per hit. I only referenced Dervy's formula after realizing that this was not the case. And Dervy's formula makes the same prediction I had going in, which has been shown inaccurate. Any references I've made to it since then have only been to reinforce that it makes predictions that don't pan out in practice, which Dervy is working to fix.

    Edit: Well, a second assumption I had would have been that equal WD would yield equal DPS.
