Can someone please help me understand the DPR calc?

Unchained Monk nv 12

Damage Traits:
Quain Martial Artist (+1 dmg Unarmed)

Style Strikes:
Flying Kick
Spin Kick

Damage Feats
Nv 1: Weapon Focus (Unarmed)
Nv 3: Power Attack
Nv 5: Dragon Style
Nv 7: Dragon Ferocity
Monk10:Medusa Wrath

Str 22(without magic itens and buffs)

Flying Kick for Flurry of blows

Attacks:
+19/+19/+19/+14/+9 (and another +19/+19/+19 if I spend ki and the target is stunned, flaat-footed, etc. from Medusa's Wrath)

First Damage from Dragon Ferocity is 2d6+21, the rest is 2d6+18.

How do I calculate my DPR in this case? I already saw some guides but I still can't understand the maths.

And there's anything I can do to improve the DPR(feat-wise)?

DPR is a formula.
The damage formula is h(d+s)+tchd.

h = Chance to hit, expressed as a percentage
d = Damage per hit. Average damage is assumed.
s = Precision damage per hit (or other damage that isn't multiplied on a crit). Average damage is again assumed.
t = Chance to roll a critical threat, expressed as a percentage.
c = Critical hit bonus damage. x2 = 1, x3 = 2, x4 = 3.

H is you take their AC and your attack value and see how many numbers give you a hit. Example if you're at +19 and enemy has AC30(which is the expected amount for a CR 15 creature like a boss) you need an 11 or higher to hit. 11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20 which is 10 numbers. 10*5% = 50% chance to hit. so h = .50

first hit d = 7+21 = 28
rest are 7+18 = 25

s=0
t = .05 as you only can crit on a 20
c=2 for fists

so you're looking at (.5*28+.05+2+.5+28)+(.5*25+.05+2+.5+25)+(.5*25+.05+2+.5+25)+(.25*25+.05+2+. 25+25)+(.05*25+.05+2+.05+25)

Add (.5*25+.05+2+.5+25)+(.5*25+.05+2+.5+25)+(.5*25+.05+2+.5+25) for ki and medusa

this is your DPR against a CR15 creature.

this page has a table. This is where you pull the AC values to see your DPR. Usually you want to calculate DPR for CR=LV, CR=LV+1 and CR=LV+3.

Thank you for the help. so. By this calculation, my DPR is:

(.5*28+.05+2+.5+28)+(.5*25+.05+2+.5+25)+(.5*25+.05+2+.5+25)+(.25*25+.05+2+. 25+25)+(.05*25+.05+2+.05+25)

Wich is:

(44,55)+(40,05)+(40,05)+(33,8)+(28,8) = 187,25


Oops. I had + when there was supposed to be * for the tchd part.

(.5*28+.05*2*.5*28)+(.5*25+.05*2*.5*25)+(.5*25+.05*2*.5*25)+(.25*25+.05*2*. 25*25)+(.05*25+.05*2*.05*25)

so it's (14+1.4)+(12.5+1.25)+(12.5+1.25)+(6.25+.625)+(1.25+.125) = 51.15 DPR

Silver Crusade

Aaah. Thanks anyway. I think I can improve it with some magic itens. I'll try to make an excel table for this.
