Default P99 Blue Melee DPS Calculator

Hey all,

I've been trying to go by the damage formulae on the P99 wiki for years to estimate what advantage a weapon upgrade might give me, but it was never quite right. Other than knowing that the ratio was just better, I wanted to KNOW the details. My max hits were always higher than what I came up with, etc. I never really dug much deeper than that for a long time.

Well, recently, I came across the CORRECT max hit formula thanks to a thread in the Bug section of the forums. It's even acknowledged by blue posts.
https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=34925

Feeling inspired, I whipped up this little calculator (estimator):

http://45.58.56.4/wp-content/eqcalc/index.html

I'll be citing sources on the calculator page and updating the wiki Game Mechanics page soon.

I hope you all get good use of it. Let me know if you find any major discrepancies. Yes, I know it doesn't account for misses, ATK vs AC, etc. Please see the Notes section on the app.

It's hosted on my own VPS for now.

Thanks,

I gave this project a long, overdue revisit.

Changelog:

-2 Hander damage bonus is now done for you!
-Added Haste Cap field
-Converted DW, DA, and TA chanes to a percentage instead of a decimal
-Fixed a minor DPS calc bug. (Big deal considering the purpose of this app. lol)
-Note updates to reflect current usage/status.

Known Issue(s):

-Max backstab isn't exact. This is the currently "known" algorithm's fault, not mine! If someone knows the algo, I'd gladly fix it.

Note:

-This now works for Green since the Chardok revamp patch.
