[DF] Suitable Dangerous Encounters

Ok, I think I have it right (this time). As you said, the Wizard is straightforward. 1 out of 6 times he inflicts 1 points of damage, so his final average damage is 1 * (1 / 6) or .17 points of damage. The Cleric will inflict damage 21 out of 36 times. The average damage over those 21 times is 2.67, so his final average damage is 2.67 * (21 / 36) or 1.56 points of damage. The Barbarian will cause damage 1261 out of 1296 times. Average damage over those 1261 times is 7.21, so his final average damage is 7.21 * (1261 / 1296) or 7.02.

Plugging those in, we get:

Barbarian = 65.7% * 7.02 = 4.61 points damage per turn
Cleric = 57.4% * 1.56 = .89 points damage per turn
Wizard = 57.4% * 1 = .5 points damage per turn

Does this finally add up correctly?
