Awesome job, Ryoii. That means that against a Lv.75 mob, a 300 damage WS generates the same TE as Provoke. That explains why my Vorpal Blades and Swift Blades (which only do moderate damage; bit under 300 on average) help me hold hate so well.

Think you could look into the CE+VE generated by cures? It'd be interesting to see the ratio of cures vs damage vs WS.

Oh, another thing to consider - assuming no resists, you can get the same number over and over again using magical WS such as Red Lotus Blade or Raiden Thrust. Don't count on doing that with G.Katana though since those WS are mixed damage, not magic damage.
