Tell that to my Kobold Skald who fights Elf/Celt Nightshades.
Is your kobold tall? If he's short he's not going to hit as hard as a tall kobold~
I STILL HAVE TO TEST AVERAGE HEIGHTh
Short Kobold, but I don't think the Lurikeen was tall...
No, scratch that - He definitely wasn't tall.

I make all my characters short so it's more of a challenge.

Any melee damage test with <500 swings isn't worth anything as a reference. And 500 is still low.
30 would be fine.
And honestly, since if you are at 50+20 in spec your variance is going to be extremely negligible, you could do 10 swings and know if there is a difference since it's not a random sampling.
I take it by your 500 is still low remark that someone in a high school algebra class mentioned that they would like to have large sample sizes.
I could go on about n>30 sample size and random or optimal distribution or how the closer you get to binomial the easier it is to figure out if something is statistically significant (and testing with high WS and limited variance) is fairly close to binomial, like where you get the same number each time.
Or do you honestly think you need 500+ swings at all between 350 and 359 before you can say conclusively what an average is? It was probably the same at 10, 30, 100 and so on.

I have to be honest... I think this is a troll, but it's a good one, and one I actually might be willing to test out one bored day after I'm done with my latest RL stuff.

Maybe you could just say "if his damage doesn't vary much, he doesn't need a very large sample size," instead of being long-winded?
