Original Post:
about deep wounds, the dps doesnt go up over the fight.
deep wounds does a set amount of damage each time you crit, and this damage doesnt go up over time.
what may happen though is that through repeated crits before deep wound can tick, you push back some deep wound damage, causing big deep wound ticks when you stop critting, and it gets a chance to tick.
you are simply pushing back some damage wich you get from crits now to come in later. thus when you crit and push back deep wounds damage, you are actually lowering your dps, wich will then go back up to what it should be when deep wounds can tick.

your dps will not get any higher over a longer fight. BUT if you manage to have enough crit and haste to keep pushing back deep wounds, so it doesnt tick, the longer the fight, the higher deep wound tick you can get.
higher deep wounds ticks just mean you are getting all the damage from a number of crits over time at once.

so striving towards big deep wounds ticks will not get you higher dps. its still nice to see huge bleed ticks though, obv

and haste and crit are obv still good, but not because your getting bigger deep wounds ticks. simply because you are critting more often, and deep wounds gets you a very nice amount of bonus damage per crit.
