well, talking about statistics... referring to post #79: the general point of averaging is correct, but the point *when* you average in your calcs is not. the average number of hits it takes for a char with an arithmetic mean of (max+min)/2=731 effective pvp dmg to take down an opponent with 4000 effective health is not 4000/731=5.5 but rather 6.0 (exact values may differ by +/- 0.05 average hits to kill based on the ratio of max/min). this means your average effective pvp dmg is 4000/6=667; this value is overestimated by the arithmetic mean you used as basis for your calculations by 713/667-1=9.6% which is quite a large relative error (considering that people in this game want to optimize their build to the sub-percent range)!

using distributions that are symmetrical with respect to the arithmetic mean is a crude approximation and can yield high error margins. dont do it
