Seeing Red - A Complete Red Mage Guide

[xyaie]

preliminary napkin math off what i have available. Basing it PURELY off just jolt.
This is not stat weights (directly), it's potency per second increase as i dont know the value of int

this is not "for the class", it's done off 1 spell. going to take a lot more work to factor in this all for our rotation. skillspeed is overvalued because of this.

TL: DR
DH: .0118
SS: .0111
CRIT: .0109
DET: .0107

basis:
Crit:
(((200 * Crit-CritBase)/2170)+50)/10= crit rate
(((200 * Crit-CritBase)/2170)+400)/10= crit damage
(base is 364)
source: https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comme...hance/djaaslc/

DH:
37.5 = 1% (after 364)


SS:
66.7 = .01s off GCD (after 381)


DET:
172 = 1%
source (DH SS DET): https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comme...rect_hit_data/

Math:

With my current stats that would mean:
1458 crit
15.08% = crit rate
1.5008 crit damage
1427 DH
28.35% DH chance
972 SS
.0886 seconds off global
895 det
5.2% damage

SO with all of that
jolt is normally 2.5s, 240 potency = 96 potency per second
modified by the above:
4.28% chance of direct crit = 450 (1.5008 * 1.25 = 1.876)
10.8% chance to crit = 360
24.07% chance to DH = 300
60.85% chance to hit = 240
19.26+38.88+72.21+146.04= 276.39
276.39*1.052 = 290.76
global = 2.5 - .0886 = 2.4114
290/2.4114 = 120.26 PPS

adding 80 crit:
15.82% chance
1.5082 crit damage

4.485 chance to DCH = 452
11.335 chance to CH = 362
23.865 chance to DH = 300
60.315 chance to hit = 240
20.27+41.03+71.6+144.76 = 277.656
277.656*1.052 = 292.09
global set to 2.4114
292.09/2.4114 = 121.13 PPS
80 crit = .87 PPS increase
1 crit = .010875 PPS

adding 80 DH (to the base)
= 30.48% chance to DH

4.6% chance to DCH = 450.24
10.48% chance to crit = 360.19
25.88% chance to DH = 300
59.04% chance to hit = 240
20.71+37.75+77.64+141.7 = 277.8
277.8*1.052 = 292.25
292.25/2.4114 = 121.2
80 DH = .94
1 DH = .01175PPS

adding 80 SS
= 2.4s GCD
290.76/2.4 = 121.15
80 SS = .89 PPS
1 SS = .011125 PPS

adding 80 det
= 5.67
276.39*1.0567 = 292.06
292.06/2.4114 = 121.116 PPS
80 det = .856 pps increase
1 det = .0107 PPS

DH: .0118
SS: .0111
CRIT: .0109
DET: .0107

ALL OF THIS IS ALL FROM THE ABOVE SOURCES's FORMULAS
THIS IS ALSO ALL NAPKIN MATH DONE WITH A HANDY DANDY CALCULATOR AT 8:30 AM BECAUSE I COULDN'T SLEEP DUE TO A NEIGHBOR MOWING THEIR LAWN

i'd still shy away from skillspeed, however this would mean DH > crit, which is the opposite of what i've heard
