Comparative efficiencyFollow

Just wondering how the two values "Comparative Efficienty" and "Offhand Efficiency" are calculated.

Example: Exquisite Puresteel Fistwraps
Comparative Efficiency: 139
Offhand Efficiency: 65

I found a new weapon in GoD, not yet listed on Allakhazam, and I would like to calculate CE and OE - how do I do?

Click the help icon (the light-blue question mark across from the item name) for more info on what the values mean.

From the help file:

Quote:
Comparative Efficiency:

A Meta-value designed to give a relative weight to the pure melee stats on an item. This is NOT a Damage Per Second value. This value is calculated with the following formula: (((damage * 2) + damage bonus) / delay) * 50. The goal of this value is to allow a rough comparison of a weapon's stats beyond simple ratio.

Offhand Efficiency:

A Meta-value designed to give a relative weight to the pure melee stats on an item. When wielded in the off-hand.This is NOT a Damage Per Second value. This value is calculated with the following formula: (((damage * 2) / delay) * 50) * 0.62. The goal of this value is to allow a rough comparison of a weapon's stats beyond simple ratio.

Ok, silly quetion: Why is that formula used? Heck, I could flip things around and make the offhand number bigger and claim I am correct.
