Calculation conditions:
- Max pet levels, and max skill levels. One exception, Skeleton - Will of the Crypt, is set at level 10.
- No modifiers from gears.
- base damage for gears, buffs, auras and other sources: 200
% Damage: 3000%.
Attack Speed: 90%.
Cast Speed:45%.
Offensive Ability: 90%.
Critical Damage: 90%.
Monster’s Defensive Ability: 2680 (Nemesis in SR 75)- We regard average DPS of Skeletons (weight: 2 Warriors, 3 Archers, 3 Mages, 2 Kinghts) as 1. For example, Primal Spirit with 8.5 means its solo DPS is similar to 8.5 Skeletons under above conditions.
What we take in consideration:
- Attack Speed, Cast Speed and Animation time.
- DoT and its duration.
- Skills and Their Cooldown.
- Offensive Ability, Defensive Ability, and Crits.
- % Damage and Attributes (Cunning and Spirit).
- Skills which aim only long range targets (like Shadow Strike of Primal Spirit and Sundered Wraith) will be used only once.
- Double hit and multiple hit for some pet (like Primal Spirit).
- For Skeletal Mage - Fireball Nove, we assume 3 fireballs hit, and its short range penalty is -35%. For Briarthorn - Ground Slam, we assume 1 projectile hits, and ignore its short range penalty. Otherwise, its DPS could be even lower.
What we ignore:
- Monster’s Armor. We use “100% Physical converted to Aether” to avoid Armor. Most pet builds will convert Phsical to other type.
- Res. and RR.
- Only solo DPS, not AoE DPS.
- No modifiers from gears.

P.S.
We assume that both pet levels and skill levels are max. However, in many builds, it’s hard to reach max skill levels. This means DPS should be lower.
For skeletens, Primal Spirits and Wraith (the top 3), this problem never matters, as their skill levels automatically increase with pet levels, and max pet levels means max skill levels.
But for Briarthorn, Hellhound, Blight Fiend (the last 3) and Raven, things do matter. Their skill levels are independent, and hard to reach max level.
