kraaken 0 Report post Posted December 20, 2014 I am trying to figure out the basic math behind the prismatic crystal and its not making much sense to me say you are doing 25k dps, the crystal last 12 seconds 25k*12=300k the tooltip say an extra 10 percent damage 300k*1.1 =330k so every minute and a half you are doing an extra 30k? in a 5minute fight you use it 3 times 3 x 30k=90k 90k/300secs =300dps even if you are saving all your cooldowns and doing double that 50k during crystal it still seems very underwhelming, not sure what im missing. is the whole point of prismatic crystal to trick the meters because its doubleing the damage between the crystal and its output?

Chrizesu 10 Report post Posted December 20, 2014 (edited) Most damage recording addons have been fixed and no longer record the damage from pc twice. (Checked with recount and skada running together and both were listing similar numbers.) Edited December 20, 2014 by Chrizesu Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berlinia 168 Report post Posted December 20, 2014 Doesnt work like that. Dps is Damage/ time. Within a certain time period you can be doing 90k dps (a.k.a your burst) and within a non bursy period you do 10k dps (averaging out to your 25kdps). As such you want to have procs etc for PC to maximize that 10% Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
