2.0 multiplier which is pretty reasonable for a monk with avatar vs a Velious dragon (something like 2.6 is more reasonable vs XP targets and 110ish dps should be possible). Assumes high resists; Fist of Nature actually does 5 DPS from procs alone which moves it up a lot vs XP targets, if you don't mind letting every caster gate/ch on you. Does not include time switching out to primals to proc; if you are pulling a lot Gharn's/Primal is probably vs spending 50% of your melee time trying to proc a primal with Abashi's.

Facesmasher has a worse ratio than the bo staff, so it's not surprising that it's pretty poor. Also note that even with the boosts Rogues should still be 10-15% ahead, which is pretty balanced.

What equation are these calcs based on?
