It can be difficult to figure out what is better when you have to choose between 30% more damage or 30% faster damage, what will give the most damage output?

When using melee at an attack speed of 1,5 attacks per second and a weapon that deals 1d6 +5 damage, we will have some random damage and some set damage, but the output in 10 seconds will always be between 90 and 165 damage before adding anything else.

Critical hits, these influence damage output greatly. So let’s use a 2x…
