7000*.032 = 224 DPS

Guren is 4/3 stronger than 2 shintens, so.....
224*.25 = 56 DPS.

So my guess from my earlier post was a bit too high. My estimated DPS loss from using 2 shintens instead of guren is only about 50 DPS. That tiny margin only matters to the absolute top of the player base, not the rest of us scrubs lol
in other words no point in worring about it enjoy the game -.-
