I am working on an excel sheet for calculating what is the best DPS increase for your well-earned coin. Currently I've only got the auto skills set up, and its very cumbersome to use til I can get some automated way to calculate costs (right now its mostly manual entry). I've got costs in both gold as well as AP.
Basically, for each skill I calculate change in DPS divided by the cost (then multiplied by 1,000,000 since its so small)
Since I'm also working in AP units, I will probably work on pets next to determine if i'd be better spending that 50 AP on base damage or a snake level
edit: So, quick calc later (I have a few formulas for pet damage and costs to feed) without any ascension bonuses for pets, its almost always more beneficial to spend AP on other things (for me currently, its speed and base damage). At some point the increase in DPS per AP for speed/damage might flip though, and a pet will be more efficient, but not for a while.
If anyone is interested, I can go into more detail in another thread on some of my calcs. At some point, I'll have a robust enough spreadsheet I could share for those interested
