Epoch's new custom FAP formula for weapons below 54.8 DPS, while also using the stock Wrath formula for weapons with => 54.8 DPS, makes for a skewed and broken FAP progression => 54.8 DPS when compared to weapons with < 54.8 DPS.
This results in all weapons that have 54.8 dps ~ 58.4 dps to currently have less +FAP than a 54.6 dps weapon.
Example:
Zulian Ceremonial Staff (ilvl 65; ZG) 54.6 dps = +52 FAP (using custom Epoch formula)
Doomulus Prime (ilvl 65; Dire Maul quest) 55.7 dps = +13 FAP (using the stock Wrath formula)
Claw of the Black Drake (ilvl 75; BWL) 56.3 dps = +21 FAP (using the stock Wrath formula)
Tigule's Harpoon (ilvl 68; ZG) 58.5 dps = +52 FAP (using the stock Wrath formula)
Staff of the Ruins (ilvl 72; AQ20) 58.6 dps = +53 FAP (using the stock Wrath formula)
The formula is also different if the ilvl is below 65 it seems, example:
Headmaster's Charge (ilvl 62; Scholomance) 58.4 dps = +56 FAP (using custom Epoch formula??)
Note that this item has higher +FAP than the prior listed Tigule's Harpoon and Staff of the Ruins, despite them being slightly higher DPS.
One, if not both of these issues are possibly related to a patch change you made back in August where it said;
"Fixed an issue where weapons under above item lvl 64 with dps below 54.8 would not have Feral Attack Power."
