To me, there are only two things that affect droop. First is ride height. Once you set that, you can forget about spring compression. The second thing that sets it is the droop screw setting. Once you have ride height, then you adjust the the droop screw to give you the droop you want. If you change the ride height or change the droop screw setting, droop changes. Those are the only two things that affect the droop setting. Of course, one caveat. You have enough shock travel to hit the droop screw BEFORE you reach the end of the shock. In the old days (TC3) we used collars to limit shock travel in order to set droop. That was before droop screws.
