So? What matters is dps without thrash vs dps with thrash. There is of course an oppertunity cost for all that energy you spend on thrash.
For you with thrash (these sims have around 84% uptime on thrash):
Code:
[DPS] = 414.2K
Mean: 416018 +/- 684.51 (21646)
Median: 414166
25%/75%: 401.0K - 429.6K
10%/90%: 390.2K - 444.5K
Min/Max: 363.4K - 497.7K

Ravage 1.0 430125 100.00% 0.29%
and without thrash:
Code:
[DPS] = 408.9K
Mean: 410895 +/- 662.57 (20952)
Median: 408881
25%/75%: 396.8K - 422.6K

for a difference of about 6k dps or 1.4%. But yes it is a slight dps increase if you can use it well.

I mean, I agree with you. I try to keep thrash up myself: http://worldoflogs.com/reports/ifufr...11038#Inferior
It is a slight dps upgrade on single target if you use it well and not fuck up anything else due to spending your energy on thrash. That is a pretty big if though in my opinion especially if you are a bit new. But calling it a big damage poster just sticks a bit in my eyes. It is less of a damage boost than treants are over Sotf and a lot of people still chose to go sotf.
