[Shaman] Elemental Item Comparisons

This is no longer being maintained

I haven't been updating ShamStats much lately, and going by the number of downloads it's still popular.

Over the last few months I've stopped working on it as a Elemental/Resto spreadsheet, and have just focused on the Elemental side of things. This means I could put aside the switching options, and do a bit more customisation.

Thusly, the Elemental Item Comparisons sheet evolved.

So now, I've got three "values". EP, DP, and SP.
These are Equivalence, Damage, and Sustainability points.

Damage points look at the direct damage done over the fight time frame (which you can specify). This is done by calculating the overall damage, then comparing it with the damage done without a particular stat.
Sustainability looks at the same thing, but via regen mechanics (elemental focus, mp5).
Equivalence points are the the two of them added together. Now before you get worried, you can sort by either EP or DS values.

One of the cool things that I've (finally) added in is the ability to specify individual gems for each item you have equipped (and it'll even make sure you have the right gems selected before adding on the socket bonus).

At the moment I am fairly certain I've ironed out the bugs, so if you find anything, post it here.
Also, I know I'm short of some items from 2.4 (the SSO necks in particular) so links to those from WoWHead would be useful as well (as much information on proc cooldowns would be useful)

Lasty, props to Moshne for helping out with formulae & fixing stuff
