Is there a formula for how delay on waepons relate to swings per period of time? Just curious because I'm trying to get an understanding of how much more delay is worth it for more base dmg. Also, I think I saw it before, but if anyone knows a link or at least knows the formula for figuring out regular weapon dmg (especially in relation to base weapon dmg, and att+ bonuses), I would like to get that as well. Thnx for any help you can give.

Lol, I know I know, I just want to make sure I'm doing the best Dot possible, and I'm the type of person to not just take others words for it.
 
What is the delay/time ratio, the OP from that link stated it was something like 1 second = 60 delay. Is this accurate, or just their specualtion?

There seems to be a few different opinions on this actual number.
 
On FFXIAH.com it says those HQ lv 71 Axes are the best DD axes in the game as there dps is highest, it is hard to work out a working forumal.

DPS is simply Damage/(Delay/60). It's not really an effective description of "best Xweapon" because of other applicable modifiers.

Destroyers vs. Hades Santi, for example. Destroyers beat Hades Sainti slightly in DPS, but theres Critical +6% vs. Attack+7 and Accuracy+7 to take in to consideration. While Hades Sainti could very well be the better of the two, you won't see me using them because of their Enmity+7.

They had another way to work out DPS it came up as weird stuff like

Zoraal Ja's Axe
DMG:46
Delay:276

What would be 46/(276/60=4.6)
46/4.6 = 10

But it has the DPS as DPS: 1000

so there is more then one way to work things out the simple way and then confusing way lol
 
Thats a pretty retarded way of doing things. Maybe they forgot the decimal and meant 10.00
