Amazingly enough, if one reads the thread for said spreadsheet there is a convenient discussion on that very subject, with a rough estimation of what the value is, but no, he needs an immediate answer and cannot search/think!

I've been using your spreadsheet and advice a lot, and I'd like to be able to figure out my own theorycrafting problems so I can figure out issues specific to my character and help the community in any way I can.

Thanks,
