Some pve Dps questions

Guys i have some questions regarding Dps in pve setups.

Firstly i need to know if there is some sort of chart or online file where i could know how much power contributes to damage dealt with our powers.

basically i need to know how much would 500 or so more power would contribute to actual dps in duelist flurry.

I was thinking mcs 4 pc set bonus is sort of trash as 5600 damage every 30s sounds like <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> but if i think about it, my main role in dungeons is murdering the boss so want to figure out how much swashes 4 set (around 500 more power lets forget about the recovery part for now) pans out damagewise in say a 30 sec period of duelist flurrys (thinking i could be landing some 5-6 chains in that time accounting ill have to dodge some <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>).


The other question would be about weapon enchantments, so considering i have 50% crit chance a lesser vopral would be a 6% effective damage increase.... it sounds inferior to plaguefire, where the damage boost is just 3.5% but in just 3 hits ill have his damage resistance reduced by 15% which at 2500 arp means a 15% damage boost.... plus the fire dot. am i missing something?

coz plaguefire looks much better than vopral for sustained damage in dungeons. I know that for big burst damage like in pvp vopral will outshine it, but not for dungeons where u will be battering monsters and debuffing for the whole party.

by the way do various players plaguefire debuffs stack?

thx in advance.

    A friend of mine went from 4500 ish power down to 2500 while picking up minimal crit/ArP (mostly HP/regen) and said he couldn't even tell the difference, but I don't know the raw numbers. I know power is <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> on a lot of other classes.

    Plaguefire is very nice to have in PvE, but you only need 1 of them, and it's common for GWF or CW to have one, so if you bring a 2nd one to the party as TR you will see very little bonus from it.

    ok, so plaguefire basically doesnt stack so ill have to check with my guildies to see what enchants they are running, i know one of the gwf i run with uses it, good that when we are running cn he uses his cw... but it might be more of a problem in mc though as we tend to share targets there. a lot of the other dungeons i tend to be the only one on the boss though, so it might still be ok there.

    the power thing is confusing me though as i do think im dpsing more with the 1k power i have gained lately and our guilds top cw just pisses on everyones dps and he is very power focused (6k plus) and he doesnt even use hv.

    its not what i was looking for exactly as i was hoping to have a relationship of power scaling with the powers themselves too, but again thanks as its still somewhat usefull.

    Thank you for this! Are there spreadsheets out there that show the same sliding scale with all of the other stats? Such as armor piercing, life steal, etc.

    This is the most accurate and comprehensive NW stat calculator. You can use it to figure out diminishing returns in your own builds:

    However, I have never seen any calculator that takes into account class-specific details such as Powers or Feats. They would also be out-of-date soon or not take into account undocumented aspects, especially from feats that can make a large difference.
