Quick question regarding this, if I were to say compare it to a Joyeuse in terms of TP gain math, how would I account for the extra swings? Is it a straight 1/3 distrubution of 1, 2, and 3 swings?

And if so, how does that actually work math-wise, i.e. to find the # of swing rounds needed to hit 100 w/ Joyeuse, I typically take the # of hits needed, divide by hit rate to find the total # of swings needed, then divide that by 1.5. If that's correct, what's the constant I would use for M.Kris, and if it's not, what am I doing wrong?

Edit: So far it seems to me that if 33.3%~ of the time it swings once, 33.3%~ of the time it swings twice, and 33.3%~ of the time it swings 3 times, this averages out to 1.999999999999999999~(I'll call it 2.0) average swings per round. Am I way off or is that usable in terms of making a comparison to Joyeuse?

Re: Mercurial Kris
Joyeuse's proc rate is around 50% I thought?
