Calculating average damage

Featured Replies

Since I have a fairly unlimited knowledge about the DW in runescape ...

 

How exactly should I calculate the average dps of a weapon/weapon combination ?

 

For example the Godswords have 1713 damage and 1 attack per 6 ticks, making the damage per tick 285.5.

 

I want to calculate the damage per tick for the combo of Vine Whip + EEE which is 720+428 and an attack every 4 ticks. Now the question is should I find the average of 720 and 428 (574) or use them as a sum (1148) in order to find the damage per tick (143.5 and 287 respectively).

Our knowledge of the dps formulas is rather rudimentary right now. Prayer*(level + damage) seems to work for melee, but it doesn't incorporate other multipliers. We also don't know the att/def max roll formulas. But if you want an idea of dps, try this:

 

1.25*(2*str level + weapon damage + offhand damage)/2*weapon speed
