It is possible that the size of adjectives varies for defense vs offense. This should be clarified, and the "numbers" should be specified with units (defense points vs % increase) --Pauling 05:06, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

This seems unlikely considering data, but if it is the case, it means that attack speed reductions and damage increase reductions are actually further apart in terms of DPS, as at maximum attack speed boosts increase DPS by 1.32 and attack damage boosts increase it by 1.42 (assuming abilities are additive), whereas in this situation it is 1.28 and 1.50.
