decided to bust out the editor. Max tigerstrike Max dclaw using nats set got
9k tiger 10k dclaw before charges with all three charges dcalw went to 21k and gained 2k ar.
So i would think that lose of 1k damage for a few strikes till charged vs over double damage in the end and the boost in ar would more that do justice to using it.
Hm, I don't know how you have Dragon Claw and Tiger Strike doing such similar damage. When I tested it with 500% ED Scissor Suwwayah's (equivalent to unsocketed Shadow Killers) I got 8k Tiger Strike and 28k Dragon Claw.
This was with level 35 Dragon Claw, level 35 Claw Mastery, and level 35 Tiger Strike. Not unreasonable considering end-game you get +10 from Shadow Killers alone.
The results I got were:
TS + DClaw: 90k per 26 frames.
8k TS x 3, 66k charged DClaw
Dragon: 140k per 25 frames.
28k Dragon Claw x 5
This is using the maximum damage for all measurements. This is also assuming TStrike works for both claws, which it might not given its history with the other charges.
These numbers shows me continuous Dragon Claw does more than 50% more damage than TS -> Dragon Claw.
I'm still not sure how you got 9k Strike & 10k DClaw. Did you not account for the second claw in your Dragon Claw damage?
