Tedahmeister's Guide to Tanking (4 of 4) - Iterative Data

[tedahmeister5]

Ok here is the final installment of the numerical analysis.

As a caveat... I will add some additional numbers from Gwarf and Jans next time we do Lord B. and from some other tanks as well to get a good comparison of data.

The following numbers reflect itterative data

730.85 - This is the N number and I obtained this number by subtracting my lowest hit (1003) from my highest hit (15620) = 14617.

Now I take the 14617 (15620-1003) and then divide in by 20 (remember the maximum number of DI values is 20) ---

This gives you the MAGICAL VALUE of 730.85 (a VERY HIGH N value) ... well he is the BOSS MOB.

Explanation:

1) I was using Fortitude and then Final Stand (this means that there was 35 percent damage taken off the original DB number giving me 65 percent of that number (1003) from 1500 (the RAW DB without any mitigation applied)).

2) I didnt add the additional damage from casting, rocks and the like to get a better distribution of the DI random damage hits

3) My AC was 5324 and my HP were 45517 fully raid buffed. Due to the very limited time of getting damage I had a very low DI (the average damage I recieved was in the DI-4-DI-5-DI-6 range per hit) and was healed easily during the remaining 6 percent of the fight on Lord Bretcht.

I need to explain here that the higher the AC the lower the number of extreme values... (HIGH DI-15-20)... AC pretty much lowers your AVERAGE DI value (thus exponential smoothing of a large distribution of damage).

A long set of numbers is needed to show a true picture, but this is what happened to me during the last 6 percent of the life of Bretcht. Anyway without further ado... the numbers dont lie..
