Easy Upgrades

So I was looking at the Flintlocke's Woodchucker engineering scope.  It should be a nice upgrade over the slow to proc Gnomish X-Ray Scope, right?  There are a few people with the plans now and actively making them.

The Undermine Journal puts it in the 500g range off of the AH but only costing about half that in mats.

But then I went to femaledwarf.com and plugged things in.  In the hyper unrealistic theoretical world, I'd be doing 27,164 dps with this instead of the X-Ray scope.  How much better is it? Less than 23 extra dps.  Yes, less than one-tenth of one percent better.

That said, it's occasionally throwing small critters so it's gotta be great.

PS: My two-week hiatus here was due to a well-deserved vacation touring England and Wales.  It was "well good" as I heard up in the Yorkshire a few times.

PPS: I got the scope and the squeal sound effect is a bit more noteworthy than the "x-ray" effect.  TBH, I don't even know if the "x-ray" effect has any effect other than the buff icon.
