EQ experience calculation tool

[kchisarik]

very cool tool thank you. Sometimes it really does feel like a waste of time in some groups, I will sometime just log, now I will have some idea why.

I do agree that GearScore in WOW helped ruin that game, "LFM GS XXXX or over only" = FAIL.

+1, that's why I always logged out with my PVP gear on. People are a joke. Regrettably though, WoW was the type of game where when gear score actually came out, it was quite useful to judge people's effectiveness.

I might end up using that javascript version instead. Nice work zerosum.

Was bored and made online javascript version that does the same thing.

I like the javascript version, thanks for writing it. Is it properly accounting for the amount of xp required to finish hell levels?

[Wisteso]

It should account for hell xp for all levels. The java version did, and I checked his source code and saw that he converted everything - including that portion.

The Ogre SK actually needs more XP than the Iksar monk.

Ogre SK = 1.15 * 1.40 = 1.61 (161%)

I'm soooo glad I got my Ogre SK to 60, before someone pulls this "hmmm my exp calculator says you can't remain in group fattie".

This doesn't account for a balanced group that kills slower than an unbalanced group, does it? Exp distribution isn't the only thing to consider for creating groups. Sucky players suck way more exp than a competent Troll SK. (i.e. rogues who take damage)

Nice! Thanks for sharing.

I don't think SKs and Pallys would get much of that, they fill their role in a group well. Rangers on the other hand.......
