The other thing is that the 2265 haste plateau is irrelevant: with 2+pc T13 we will never want to fit 4 CoS in between ESs; depending on your haste, you should be gaining ~25 focus per CoS, which...

My Survival DPS of 36202 (http://www.femaledwarf.com/?setting_id=51076) (post 26) is still better than Daddy's. However, it does not respond well to his fix, losing 250dps in the process.

That said, it's relatively easy to figure out how much...
