Incorrect DPS tooltip - second evasion roll against crits is ignored.

By doing manual dps calculations using crit chance and hit chance shown in charcater panel i came to a conclusion that dps formula for crits looks like this:

TotalDPS=(AlwaysCritDPS*CritChance+NeverCritDPS*(1-CritChance))*HitChance

And if monsters can indeed downgrade crits to normal hits then formula should be like this:

TotalDPS=(AlwaysCritDPS*CritChance*HitChance+NeverCritDPS*(1-CritChance*HitChance))*HitChance

Where
NeverCritPDS = AverageDamage*AttacksPerSecond
AlwaysCritPDS = AverageDamage*AttacksPerSecond*TotalCritMultiplier

Hope this get fixed soon (as it's just a formula fix), in my case tooltip shouws 25% more dps that it's actually is.

The DPS tooltip ignores and guesses a lot already anyways. *shrug*

If I remember correctly, the DPS tooltip is basically a placeholder, so keeping it accurate is a low priority at best. I can very well be misremembering the reason behind ignoring the Crit Confirm though.
