And while that's more than before, uh... it doesn't quite appear to take SS-induced clipping penalties out of the game, now, does it ._.
Eh, more of a boost than you're accounting for. Recall that there's a subtraction that happens after the potency multiplier (or at least there was in 2.5). This means that your CT ticks should have started out (in a 0 SS build) at less than 35/250 of your CT hits, even after factoring out Disembowel. In 2.5, seeing your Disembowel numbers, I would have pegged CT ticks as being about 113 minimum damage to about 125 maximum. If you manage to get the same STR/DET/WD with 0 SS, those are the numbers I would call even now. So I would say it's more like a 3% or 4% boost.
