Claws Attack Chains?

So I'm trying to put together a Claws/WP brute build and it was pointed out to me that the Brute version of Claws has different damage and recharge values than the Scrapper version, which means all the nifty attack chains floating around aren't as useful as I thought they were. Now I'm confused and lost in a sea of DPA and Arcanatime. Does anyone have a thread they could point to or some numbers to crunch that could show me some good Brute Claws attack chains and the recharge needed to run them?

At 70 Fury and with 95% damage slotting in all attacks :

Focus->Slash->Strike gives 143 DPS and needs 186.5% recharge in Focus, 140.75% in Slash and 72% in Strike.

Even without Fury I can't find any point where adding Follow Up to a chain increases the DPS. Surely that's not right.

I'm not positive, but I think Bill Z may be taking a break from the game at the moment. He plays on the same server I do and is in the same global channels, and i haven't seen him on in a while.

Are you using the mid's activation time for Follow Up? Its wrong.

By so much that I'm wondering how I didn't question it originally. Thanks.
