Default Highest damage possible?

I don't have max PvE titles on my assassin and I just wanted to know how much damage Death Blossom would deal against the Master of Damage with the following buffs.

Jagged strike, Fox Fangs, Death Blossom.

Strength of Honour, at 16 smiting.
Asura Scan.
By Ulral's hammer.
Great Dwarf Weapon.

I'd imagine it be way over 400 damage, including DB's double-strike, but I'd like to know anyway.

You'd still get a fairly good idea of the damage output even without the max titles. Unless of course you don't have those skils or you're lacking in any ranks.

Keep in mind you'll need a REAL person to come with you to apply GDW, and preferably a real person if you were to go with the Paragon ideas suggested above.

I doubt though that you'll actually hit 400 with just a single DB strike. A full dagger chain perhaps with the added buffs, but there's really no one dagger skill I can see hitting for that much.

There, added some buffs, screen shows 516 damage, even if semi-obscured.



And now with a scythe, you could do more damage, better runes etc.

I'd imagine it be way over 400 damage, including DB's double-strike, but I'd like to know anyway.
Relatively simple calculation:

Need a couple more variables, so I assumed:
  • 15^50 weapon inscription and you are over 50% health
  • customized weapon
  • zealous weapon (no damage prefix)
  • 14 dagger mastery
  • each hit does average damage
  • no criticals

That gives us:

Jagged Strike:
((((7 + 17) / 2)[dagger average] * 1.15[inscription] * 1.20[customization] * (2^((64[14 mastery] - 60[MoD has 60AL]) / 40))) + 26[SoH] + 20[GDW]) * 1.75[Scan] * 1.25[BuH] = 139.449994 round= 139. (+ bleed)

Fox Fangs
((((7 + 17) / 2)[dagger average] * 1.15[inscription] * 1.20[customization] * (2^((64[14 mastery] - 60[MoD has 60AL]) / 40))) +33[Fox Fangs] + 26[SoH] + 20[GDW]) * 1.75[Scan] * 1.25[BuH] = 211.637494 round= 212

Death Blossom:
((((7 + 17) / 2)[dagger average] * 1.15[inscription] * 1.20[customization] * (2^((64[14 mastery] - 60[MoD has 60AL]) / 40))) +43[Death Blossom] + 26[SoH] + 20[GDW]) * 1.75[Scan] * 1.25[BuH] = 233.512494 round= 234 for each hit.

Total: 139 + 212 + 234 + 234 = 819 (+bleed)
Actual damage may go up or down depending on random rolls for dagger damage range and criticals.

GDW, SoH, Scan, and, to a lesser degree, BuH are reasonable skills that could see action in normal play. Crap like Vengeance is not. Perhaps I'm totally off base here, but I got the impression that Minion wanted to know the max damage on a practical skill setup.

Thanks for the calculations, Cho. More than I was expecting ;-P

That is mad damage, really. How does it fare in UW when we HM it? Alot of the damage is armour ignoring so it shouldn't decrease too much.

Anyway, cheers.
