I did some more analysis of this the other day too, and it looks like in a 1-minute interval (compared to imangle) you lose 4 mangles in exchange for 3 normal attacks (swipe/lacerate) and one FF. That actually means that the overall threat gain from having iMangle is less than expected before (I pegged it at around 3% total), since FF is about 75% of a mangle's threat whereas lacerate/swipe is about half.<br /><br />This should likely be the subject of a significantly larger post; I think I'll try and figure out the relative value of threat of FF given that it goes off of spell hit/spell crit values instead of hit/crit values. It might end up being about the same as lacerate/swipe due to missing so much more. Doubtful, but worth the math. :)Kalonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05193899462301079034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1900687619728916443.post-36989652000269913272009-04-23T23:37:00.000+02:002009-04-23T23:37:00.000+02:00@ Anonymous
