For PWS, you can do the math yourself or download DrDamage to get a half-decent look at what your PWS should be capable of absorbing. Absorb counts have been much improved, but it is still possible...

Same way we do for DPS. theorycraft, sim and estimate (the comparative static estimation a la shamanHEP is most promising). The goal isn't to gather a complete accounting but to get a little beyond...

Before I do some crunching on my end, can I get some confirmation on relevant characteristics for DA?
