So I am sitting here itching to know what to put in my WWS to reach that magical IAS break point AND max my damage output on bow. So I held an invitation only contest for the contestants who were in the contest. And the contestants are:
Vermilion jewl of Fervor - aka: the Max damage mainiac. A suitable first contestant with the ability to add 15 points to your WWS max damage and 15% IAS. :thumbsup:
Crimson jewl of Fervor - aka: the Thunder from Down under. Our second contestant bootst the minimum damage of our WWS and if this somehow brings the minimum damage higher than the listed max damage, add 1 point to the minumum damage and that's your new max damage. Don't forget the 15% IAS. :uhhuh:
Ruby jewl of Fervor - aka: Mr. Popular. :clap: Our third contestant is widely regarded as THE socketing jewl of choice for any socketable weapon. Bringing to the table 40% Enhanced damage and 15% IAS.
The mighty OHM Rune - aka: Mr. expensive. :D If you can afford him he lights up your WWS with 50% ED but no IAS.
and now the numbers:

WHAT!!! did you see that! OMG!!!
and now for the post contest review:
Ohm/Ohm wins the Average damage contest by 8 POINTS!! score 985.5
Second goes to 2x Crimson jewl of Fervor with a score of 977.5
and a distant third to 2x Ruby jewl of Fervor with 912.5
2x Vermilion jewl of Fervor takes the max damage crown with 1224 points.
Ohm/Ohm comes in a distant second with 1080
2x Ruby jewl of Fervor places third again with 1000
with 30% IAS on bow you need another 75% to reach 8 frames per attack and 33% to reach 9. something you have to think about.
IAS Frames per attack
0 % 13
9 % 12
20 % 11
37 % 10
63 % 9
105 % 8
200 % 7
20% gloves
20% ammy
15% helm (ias jewl)
40% helm (mav helm)
55% helm (mav helm w/ ias jewl)
10% helm (Stealskull)
25% helm (Stealskull w/ ias jewl)
10% belt
Lastly we should take a second look at the 1x numbers because realisticly one socket with be for shael and the other needs IAS too to make the breakpoint not so hard.
766.5 - 40% ED/15% IAS
748 - 15 max / 15% IAS
705.5 - 8 min / 15% IAS
