Hero class, waste of gold?

[Huscarlton Banks]

If you do the math,

Non-Peltast:
300 wpf = 1.3 multiplier
6 power throw = 1.6 multiplier
1.3 * 1.6 = 2.08

Peltast:
325 wpf = 1.3375 multiplier
7 power throw = 1.7 multiplier
1.3375 * 1.7 = 2.27375

2.27375/2.08 = 1.093....

So the peltast does around ~8-9% more damage per throw compared to non-peltasts, since strength bonuses are added after the multipliers.

I don't think anyone's done a bot by bot comparison of hits to kill thresholds for each throwing weapon though, and that's what's really important.
