...like the weapon bonuses, and buffs, from 3 fvs for +19 damage per hit?

...like fighter greater weapon focus?

If you run the numbers, you'll see what I'm talking about is far superior in every regard; DPS included.

You get some boni from FVS, but not 19. You also lose combat DC with Know the Angles, assuming you're running know the angles. Are you accounting for divine might in 19 damage? Is that post melee power?

1 from level 3 thing. 3 from WP. 1 from divine favor. that is 5 damage. with 190 melee power that is 14.5.

The number is exactly +19 damage per hit @ lvl 3 fvs: math is hard, huh?

Lets see the math.

Did you count the Child of Whatever feat, the righteous weapons bonuses, the divine favor spell, and the inflame buff?  I don't work for you...

ehhh. no speed item in gear set atm....could do dodge mobility for the 4 melee power for more dodge cap but meh.

I misspoke: it's +19 damage per hit (and numerous bonuses to hit) counting the elven racial scimitar damage enhancements AND 3 levels of fvs, not just the 3 fvs; my bad.  That's why elf with 3 fvs levels FAR outperforms anything with a khopesh; indeed, it's the largest combination of damage bonuses in the game (elf+fvs undying court+scimitar) bar none.  Combine that with 8 fighter for greater weapon focus, weapon focus, the kensai bonuses, weapon meditation; nigga please, it's scimitar madness making anyone running around with a khopesh in another race look silly!

This build loses a ton of DPS.  You have 1 less on the crit multiplier (and one on the crit range unless you are putting 31 points or more in Kensai, which if you do that, costs you all T5 tempest stuff so now you are losing full offhand damage vs. 1/2 damage, 10k Cuts, and Dance of Death plus the points you want to put in your FvS tree is costing you from DWS.  Which is more DPS loss).

Your build is old and outdated and stale.  Just like the Diceman.  Your name and avatar are appropriate.  Although he actually had a prime.  You've been clueless the whole time.

That build has been around for ages.  It's not current anymore.  Get into the AP spend.  Compare your 8 Fighter/3 FvS build with a 20 Ranger and see which one wins.  It's not even close.  You lose on Crits, you lose on double strike.  You lose on off hand attacks/damage, you lose on Melee Power.  It's a loser pure and simple.  You are the Diceman.  He thinks that he can still be a stand up comedian.  But people are laughing at him.  Not with him.  Same as you.

You're yapping, but I don't see you pointing to anything substantive.  Keep yapping, I'm sure someone thinks it's entertaining.

theyre added to the crits. stop embarassing yourself please. this comparison was 1 multiplier vs 20 damage. 1 multiplier wins easily.

no my equation takes crits into account. youre too much of a fuckwit to math i see. on 20 rolls of a die a scimitar has 19 hits. 6 of those hits are crits, multiplied x2. that accounts for 12 increments of damage on 6 of the 19 hits. on the other 13 hits they are not crits, accounting for 13 increments of damage. 12 plus 13 is 25 increments of damage per every 20 rolls, 19 of which hit. on the 6 crit hits with x3 multiplier you get 6 aditional increments of damage. (25*20)/6 seeker and on crit effect only favor the crit multiplier also. the higher the chaarcters base damage is, the more the multiplier is favored also
