those are excellent examples, Crow, and I appreciate you taking the time to write them up clearly and simply. As I said, I was curious to see how it went at even levels, and I was completely pulling the stats I used out of thin air.
It's odd to see such a high difference, IE your GC potentially doing 20-25 damage per hit on avg. Where the WaM does a meager 5 avg.
As you mentioned, my thoughts on the setup were my intuition on the outcome since I hadn't crunched numbers. Something to consider that might skew numbers though likely only fractionally ... Do the WaM's stats have to be -exactly- even with one another? Or is there, perhaps, a buffer that they have to remain in line with? Say within 20 of the rest, or 10 etc etc ... It's not mentioned anywhere that I've found, the actual variance allowed or if they have to be exactly or within 1 point of one another. Though even 20 points difference wouldn't make -that- much of a change in the outcomes I feel.
