Felk, yes prolly looking at the big numbers from the tick using disintegrate confused me, since at its a lot of little explosions from at, gonna give a shot to a couple runs using AT. Thanks
Questions like this one make me wish there were an easier way of measuring net damage output, but since we don't have that...
Kill Ghom a few times like Felk recommended, probably at one or two Torment levels below you're used to running. Note his health at the beginning of the fight, because it's the same every time. That divided by the time it takes to kill him is your effective DPS. There are a few threads and articles for the Googling about eDPS if you're interested in knowing more.
Thanks zargg for ur input , anyways once i switched arc torrent and disintegrate to E twister Gale force my dmg its insane, better mobility, Channeling spells for grifts arent viable and my hydra can carry me vs hard affixes elites.
Disintegrate counts as DoT damage. It doesn't show up as yellow numbers. As it's a DoT, the white number you see on screen is the combined total number of all active DoTs on a target. If you run Firebird, all the secondary/infinite DoT numbers will stack with the Disintegrate damage numbers, making it appear as if it's a higher number. Same applies to Blizzard and Hydra. Casting them all at once and having them all deal damage to the same target will result in a single massive white number.
Arcane Torrent, on the other hand, does not count as a DoT and will display separate damage numbers.
It's always worked this way since the beginning of D3.
