Well the other day Safer asked me about this and I wasn't entirely sure, so I went and found the rounded figures for haste's effect on DPS for MNK.
Code:
Haste 0% 3% 5% 8% 11% 15% 20% 25% 30% 40% 50%
Adjusted Delay 348 337 330 320 309 295 278 261 243 208 174
Adjusted Atk Period 5.80s 5.61s 5.50s 5.33s 5.15s 4.91s 4.63s 4.35s 4.05s 3.46s 2.9s
Attacks/30sec 5 5 5 5 5 6 6 6 7 8 10
Attacks/60sec 10 10 10 11 11 12 12 13 14 17 20
Attacks/120sec 20 21 21 22 23 24 25 27 29 34 41
Utsu: Ichi Recast 30s 29s 28s 27s 26s 25s 24s 22s 21s 18s 15s
Utsu: Ni Recast 45s 43s 42s 41s 40s 38s 36s 33s 31s 27s 22s
So adding up your gear's haste total then factoring in which spells/songs you have on you:
Code:
Haste Spell 15%
Advancing March 9%
Victory March 11%
keeping in mind that Haste caps at 50% total, you can figure out our damage per minute on LBC by factoring in our average damage per attack round.
But then there's the inate ability of double attacking and kick attacking that has to be accounted for as well. WAR sub is what, 10% Double Attack? So /WAR with Brutal earring will give you +15% attacks. Then for kick attacks, the general consensus for calculating the rate is:
[10+(kickMerits)+(gearBonus)
]So if you were using Melee Hose and had full Kick merits (5), then you'd theoretically have a 20% chance of Kick attacking.
So let's see...
In one minute, using
Walahra Turban
Melee Hose
Dune Boots
Black Belt
Brutal Earring
and variable other gear alternatives, with Haste and Victory March, you'd have 43% Haste, a 15% chance of Double Attacking and a 20% chance of Kick attacking (for about 20 dmg more per kick than per fist average). 18 Attack rounds (36 punches) per minute with that amount of haste, ~8 kick attacks, and 5~ extra punches via Double Attack.
Code:
36 Punches @45~55 dPerFist
8 Kicks @65~75 dPerKick
5 Double Attacks @45~55 dPerFist
And finally, the totally variable accuracy stat which probably will fall around 75% on an LBC-type mob.
[(36*50)+(8*70)+(5*50)
]*.75 =
1957.5 Damage per minute!but wait, there's Asuran fists to be accounted for, lol!
Let's just be vague here since, well I want to. 49 attacks @ 4.5 TP per connection with 75% accuracy = 165~TP, so there'll only be 1 Asuran per minute more than likely. Asurans generally do 200~300 dmg, so general concesus is that MNK/WAR is easily capable of 2200 damage per minute on LBC with correct support, with potential to do more.
for NIN sub, I'd probably subtract about 400 damage due to 5-10 less damage per fist and only a 5% chance to double attack, as well as utsusemi casting times.
And now I'm free to be bored again.
