===Build Comparison Formula===
This is an in-depth formula for comparing builds. It can be written as:
<br><code>1 + ( ( (1 - $\sum_{n=0}^{4}0^{|PulseRate-n|}$) * (1 - CritChance)) / PulseRate + $\sum_{n=0}^{4}0^{|PulseRate-n|}$) + CritChance) * (1 - CritDamage) * (1 + rawDMG) * (1 + AttackSpeed)</code>
