I get so many answers when it comes to the Floating Damage astral and decided to come here to ask what its purpose is for?

I play an archer lol. force/sniper/determination/fortitude/willpower. always took out my fortitude for the floating damage (ruthlessness).
Since floating damage is 50/50 chance of dealing higher/lower, let's say you have a fixed damage output of 1000. You put on your 20% Floating Damage astral, and you go into WB. Half of the time, you would deal 800-1000. The other half of the time, 1000-1200
So let's say you do 10 hits at WB, and your floating damage is fixed at 900 and 1100 respectively (on average)
3 times you hit 1000
3 times you hit 1100
3 times you hit 900
The last time could be anything, but let's put it in 1K damage for average.
The total is still 10K damage. So basically, you haven't changed your damage output at all.
Hoped this helpedEverything is to blame...

Wrong.
Say it's 20% dmg and you are a 1000 average to start. Your range would be 900-1100 without floating 20%. So add the ruthlessness astral and you get 720-1320 and then your average hit is now 1020.
20% of 900 = 180, 900 - 180 = 720
20% of 1100 = 220, 1100 + 220 = 1320
It's not useless, but it's nothing particularly amazing.

I tried without it yesterday and for some reason, I did just a tiny bit more. This is without upgrading or leveling anything. I did 2.34% the night before. Yesterday, I di did about 2.36%.
Thinking about the times I was using the floating astral, I was in sylph mode (Gaia), I used Delphic Thunder Wave and crit for 89k. The next round, before we got an extra inspiration boost, I did 123k. I guess its all on luck but, maybe by leveling the astral, It can be of more use.
