Calculators

Guess I will finally make an announcement on the calculators I created during Christmas break. If you have been wondering what was that little dot doing next to the monster search link, well it's there because I finished the simpler calculators but was not yet done with the stat calculator.

So after having two flus, bunch of forum dramas, and a little of unexpected hosting problem .. I am finally calling it done. I know RO calculators are nothing new and they are probably everywhere, still I think they are a nice addition to our site. You can find the list of calculators under the new Tools menu on the left side just below the Database menu. It's there with the other simulators and test server link for better organization, they aren't really a "database" after all.

I shouldn't have to explain much, they are all self-explanatory from the names:

You might have already found them and started using them since a month ago. Laugh

As always, these are based on formulas used in the eAthena server engine. The formulas behind the computation were outlined below each calculators to provide a better understanding to the game mechanism (except for the Stat Calculator because there are too many).

I would like to talk about the Stat Calculator a little though because it might not be the kind of Stat Calc you think it is.

The bad news is that, no you will not be able to add equipments in the calc. It's a "Stat" Calc in which you are only able to calculate your stats such as HP, SP, regens, hit, flee, etc, and effect for fixed buff/damage skills. Adding the equipment part is a whole different story which I will not attempt at this stage. I might modify it next Christmas (>_>) depend if I get any valuable feedback for this one.

The good news is that this calculator can go up to level 999 with all stats up to 999. If you are a low-rate lover then this has nothing to do with you =/ unfortunately. Still you might want to use it as a Acid Demo Calc, Asura Calc, Falcon Damage Calc, Turn Undead Calc, Sacrifice Calc or invent your own purpose while you give it a try.

Feel free to point out any error you find or make a suggestion by replying to this topic.
