blade vortex - how scaling works

I know that maybe this is very stupid question...but I wanna make sure about it!
Sorry if this is asked before!
I wanna know how scaling dps on Blade vortex works...so U have your base dmg added something and in the end there is a number that is shown on the screen, when you hold the mouse on the skill, is damage per second for the skill. Is that for a single blade vortex? And how is it scale if you have 10(for example) up at the time?
For example...For a single blade vortex it is 3k dps....is that mean that if you have 10 up at the time it will be 30k dps?
Thanks for the attention!

Not a friggin clue. I'd have thunk that your interpretation seems reasonable - but the PoE wiki description for blade vortex which includes a section on Blade Vortex's DPS suggests otherwise.

It suggests that the actual DPS of Blade Vortex on the tooltip is not entirely accurate and a more accurate DPS figure can be obtained via the following calculations:

If fewer than 50 blades can be maintained

[Sustained DPS] = [tooltip DPS] * [Blade Vortex duration] * 1

If 50 instances can be maintained

[Sustained DPS] = [tooltip DPS] / [casts per second] * 50

The tooltip dps is the damage per blade multiplied by the casts per second. So it's a bit of a useless stat. Which is why those wiki formulas are better to use.
Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea:

ok...so how to know what dps I do?
Yes I can see what can be done...and how fast I kill stuff, but I need to know the mathematics behind all of that...
Because there is like 5K dps that u can do with blade vortex....and there is like 100k dps doable with other spells....so how 5k=100k?
And for example...on high end maps...u pretty much kill with one shot every trash mobs around the board ...but if you want to do some math about life leech and so on...you need some numbers that u can trust
and with blade vortex u CAN`T go up than 5k ( I think ) or if u can for sure will be less than 10k....and this comparing with other skills that can go up to 100-200k it is insane
And just to say..that i know the difference between done damage and dps(damage per second)
Just...don`t know how to say it...it is a little mess around this kind of skills with multiple cast or whatever
So if this formula is correct...it should be like that...5k dps / 5 cast per second * 50 (for example) and this go like 1250k sustained dps...and that is....a bit more that you can think....
and for fewer than 50...it is like 5k* 8 seconds * 1 it is go like 665 dps per blade vortex..or what? and if you go like 49 what it will be 665*49= 32,5K...there is a bit difference about one blade vortex...and that is absurd...when u think about it...
I don`t know someone to correct me!

The wiki is correct.
You essentially take your shown dps, and multiply it with your duration in seconds, likely rounded down to full seconds.
If you have a duration of 10 seconds, each blade will hit 10 times (not sure if it starts with a hit or a delay towards a hit, so let's cal 1 per second), so your dps is actually 10x higher than what is listed, if you cast constantly. I am not sure how Echo affects the display.
