I've noticed theres a big problem with the individual dps listings of items that proc haste effects. i.e. Dragonspine and Thundering Skyfire diamond. I get roughly the same dps listing as you for trinkets, but in reality Dragonspine is actually nowhere near 450dps. Try this: put on the hourglass instead of the dragonspine. The hourglass should be ~100dps depending on the rest of your gear. Then switch to the Dragonspine. In your 'Rough DPS' field at the top, going from hourglass->dragonspine only gives you about 80dps, but for the individual trinkets, it claims Dragonspine is about 300dps better than hourglass. The same thing happens with a thundering skyfire vs relentless earthstorm diamond comparison. According to the values next to the diamonds, it looks like the thundering is 21 dps better than relenteless, but when you actually do the diamond swap in your gear, my overall dps only increases by 8 or so.
I haven't spent enough time delving into the spreadsheet to be able to explain this yet, but I *can* say that this over-valuing of haste procs in the dps field next to them appears to only happen with haste procs. I don't see how dragonspine could be more beneficial to me than Netherblade chest or legs, but when I take the value of hourglass, and add the delta I get in overall dps when switching to dragonspine, i get ~180dps which seems more accurate.
Is there an easy explanation for why its this way? Or is it just some oversight that can be fixed?
