DMG is so much more important for skill damage that I am glad that you took the time to show what the impact is.

Just out of curiosity, have you figured out what impact the Bonus Dmg stat plays? I thought that it was a multiplier for your weapon damage, but my calculations don't line up. I am usually off by 10-15% which is significant for statistical purposes. I sure wish that STS listed either DMG or Speed on weapons so we can calculate the other values.

At any rate, wonderful work on the guide. Two thumbs up!!
Sorry for the double post, somehow missed yours O.o

Someone told me that in order to have high crit you'd have to sacrifice Dmg on a rogue, but I haven't played rogue much yet so can't be sure. I would have thought Dmg would matter more though, especially with relative low crit numbers.

As for the bonus Dmg, I tried several calculations as well but haven't figured it out yet. And I agree that it would've been nice to get wep Dmg and speed instead of DPS in the description.
