Guild Wars 2

Critical Damage: 109% You have by default 50% Critical Damage. 100 Dmg +109% CritDMG = 259 Dmg on Crit.

But lets ignore that for a moment. I am not sure if your/my Dmg-Formula is correct, I’m unable to reproduce your numbers with your stats.

In any given amount of time T [in sec] I’ll regenrate Tx1.212 initiative. Thus, I am able to use Unload Tx1.121/5 times. Unload has a channeling time of 2.25 seconds. That means it will take T x 1.121/5 × 2.25 seconds to channel all the Unloads
-> T – T x 1.121/5 × 2.25 Sec left to use Vital shot. Vital shot has a channel Time of 0.88 sec, so I’ll use (T – T x 1.121/5 × 2.25) / 0.88 times VS.

According to your Calculations, VS deals 339 × 3.15 = 1068 damage, Unload deals 2032 × 3.41 = 6929 damage.

DPS = 1/T x [ T x 1.121/5 × 6929 + (T – T x 1.121/5 × 2.25)/0.88 × 1068]
= 1.121/5 × 6929 + (1 – 1.121/5 × 2.25)/0.88 × 1068
= 2105 Damage/Second

instead of 3133 DPS

That’s a huge gap. Your number is bigger, please find a mistake in my calcs

Wiki states unload as 1 3/4 seconds, has anything changed?

Also, can I ask if there’s any other changes if I use 10/30/0/30/0? Quick recovery + quick pockets = 5 init gain every 10 seconds, or 0.5 init per sec. How much DPS will be gained/lost?

You lose about 1000 DPS if I remember correctly, it was pretty terrible, you gain a lot of damage from the power and exposed weakness.

And you need to extend that period. Its 259% more. As in, two and a half men…erm, dmg.

Funny thing is, me incorrectly calculating vital shots damage, and messing up the crit damage, is gonna roll out similar numbers :X maybe even higher
