    DPS Testing

    I thought it would be interesting to see how much the DPS value actually changes damage output.

    I tested with weapons that have the same Delay (Damage/Delay ='s DPS)

    The test consisted of having STR/INT below where it would cap on either weapon.
    Perform Auto Attack with a Parser until DEV was ~9% swap fists - repeat.
    For WS's using Pummel only ~9% DEV swap fists - repeat.

    attack 72 91 81.5 11.656% - 38.00 DPS Lomisan Knuckles
    attack 57 72 64.5 11.628% - 28.66 DPS Cobalt Knuckles
    attack 64 80 72.0 11.111% - 32.33 DPS Pieste Ceste
    The calculated difference is:
    ~0.85%: 1 Damage Stat (used for AA)
    ~2.5%: 1 DPS (used for WS)

    ***This does not include the addition of higher stat caps from higher DPS. This is only higher DPS with the exact same stats.

    ***Also tested this for Gladiator and Lancer weapons. Results aren't posted
