Taking the inverse of that, 100/105.4545, despair does 95.8% of the damage but uses amm at 56.8% of the rate. You will run out of ammo almost twice as fast with HP, while pickups are the same for both (20 rounds). With Despair, you give up 4.2% damage potential, but use up half the ammo for same amount of damage.
