93.5% + Sword Oath (which not many people have put into percents yet. Although its super complicated due to weapon delay+all that Jaz.Wrong, which is why the the Dark Knight 92% and Paladin 93.5% damage reductions are both misanalyses using the same bad statistics. Darkside is a flat 1.15 multiplier to all Dark Knight damage and Fight or Flight is an average multiplier of 1.1 to Paladin damage and both are available in both DpS and Tank modes. While FoF can be played with to get slightly more out of it (You can actually lose 39 potency if you pop FoF right before GB rather than before either the FB or RB leading into the GB), it is still at its heart a damage multiplier so effects the Paladin's average damage in a similar (though not identical) way as Darkside and Maim effect Dark Knight and Warrior damage.
Saying Dark Knight has an 8% damage drop while in Grit is wrong. The damage drop in Grit is ~20% as the Dark Knight is going from 115% (Darkside only) to 92% (Darkside + Grit).
Which is why I said the Warrior's dps gap between stances was much more complicated. Dark Knight and Paladin are both rather simple to get ballparks for. The numbers are not perfect but do give you a better idea of what the relative differences are between Tank stance/DpS stance outputs with out having to calculate the 3 minute rotations of both.
I agree the end result is acceptable, but I'd rather cases of misanalysis be corrected rather than spread. (If they do spread you tend to get people like Nektulos)
I am not saying its right, but its closer then it should be.
