the analysis of how
EU works have involved the effort of hundreds of people during several years. some parts are already more or less clear (with the help of hints from
MA), while others are still very controversial and stalled from some time. it is great that you think it is so simple, and you're welcome to contribute with your insight.

i'm sorry but this reasoning is completely flawed. "it must be fast, therefore it must be simple", right?. there are thousands of examples of computing systems which are extremely complex and very very fast.
all the "systems" or aspects that i mentioned as examples (loot system, armor decay, effect of attachments in weapons, general weapon efficiency, skill system, etc.) are involved and must be "calculated" for every single mob you hunt at any given time, regardless of how much you think the servers might be stressed

hehe, i'd love to read it, so go ahead please. in fact, your comment reminds me the famous cite from
fermat: "
I have discovered a truly marvelous proof of this, which this margin is too narrow to contain."
