**EDIT**

Your above math is incorrect as well. Twinproc is not an increase in procrate, that's Weapon Affinity. Twinproc is a 9% chance to twincast any proc you make. Once you figure procrate, then you can basically guestimate that 10% of those are going to be double procs.

Well, I did present 2 possible methods.  The organization in main paragraph was bleh, but here's my thought pattern on the looking at it from dmg PoV: calc dbl dmg x proc rate x twinproc rate = dps gain = same as the 18% assumption, and that logic feels better (9% chance 7.2 times per min to double your dmg from the proc)

9% twinproc rate = 9% increase in proc dps (not 18%)

Think of it this way - every proc has a 9% chance of doing double damage.  For every 11 procs, one will double damage.  So, you'll get 12 proc damage amounts instead of 11.  12/11 = 109%.

Double damage adds one more damage amount to the proc you would have gotten anyway, not 2.
