i tried to make an example with calytrek mkI but i noticed that on entropiawiki.com the eco on this weapon (and on all other weapons) aren't by just calculate the average dmg / cost.. or the calytrek would had [(31+62)/2]/ 14.93 (cost) = 3.114 eco
but in entropedia say it has 2.881 eco.. so i don't know what other they calculate to find the real eco on these weapon...
thought in entropedia, weapon's eco are without calculate miss/crit chances..
The Weapon Attachments chart (
http://www.entropiawiki.com/Chart.aspx?chart=Attachment) shows stats based on Max Damage.
Note1: The function of an amp is to increase the max damage of a weapon. It's the
weapon that has the 50%-100% spread of damage, not the amp per se. As an example, if the amp were attached to a weapon that had a different spread, the
weapon would be what affected the damage spread, not the amp.
Note2: As an amp can't be used without being added to a weapon anyway, the dpp is only useful as a comparison with other amps.
The relative effectiveness will be exactly the same, regardless of whether the dpp is based on maxed damage or average damage. Questions of over-amping are irrelevant until a weapon+amp combo is chosen, which is outside the scope of the Weapons Attachment chart.
For the Weapons chart (
http://www.entropiawiki.com/Chart.aspx?chart=Weapon) the default setting is to show Effective Damage. (If you want it to show Max Damage, just untick the Effective Damage box in the Settings near the top of the page)
As the text at the top of that page says:
Effective damage is based on average damage and is corrected for the hit rate of a maxed weapon.
Adding an amp to a weapon using the Settings section on that page will give the Effective Damage for [Weapon+Amp] combo.
