SKILLCALC
(v1.1)




http://dev.median-xl.com/?script=skillcalc




Hello folks. After some work every now and then I'm finally happy to present the feature complete Median XL skill calculator!

What it is


An app that allows you to work out the damage of all spells and attacks in the game based on your character's unique combination of stats and skills, as well as track the progression of every passive ability, buff and debuff. If you have ever wondered how much damage a certain proc does, how an oSkill will scale into the endgame (and any surprising hidden synergies it might have) or exactly how much benefit you will gain from an equipment upgrade then this is the tool for you.

It is first and foremost a tool. As with any tool, its usefulness will depend on the skill of the user.


What it is not


A damage simulator. It cannot tell you how many fireballs are in your Cataclysm cast, or how many targets your Stormcall will hit in a single cast in uberlevel X or how many times can you cast the chosen spell in 1 second. It's a tool that emulates the numbers you see on your character sheet in game and helps you theorycraft your build.



How to use it


The calculator has three sections. Select a skill. Input your stats. Then press calculate. Once fully loaded, it will work offline too. Requires a non-ancient browser.

► Details




Bugs & Feedback


Since this is the first release version there will be bugs. If you find that the calculator gives a drastically different result compared to what you see in game do report it in this thread.

Same goes for any skill that you want to see included as I might have missed some when compiling the list.

Any other feature requests? Let me know.


Known Issues

  • Twin fang class icon contains the fire nova only. The oskill version the poison nova only.
  • Werewolf form doesn't know if it's supermaxed or not (bonuses only apply if it is supermaxed) - too lazy to fix.

Great work! This will be very helpful for planning out characters. I think it's great it includes oskills and procs as well. Now I'll be able to find out how much fire splash does and whether it is worth it as a proc.

Just wondering if it could also passives and buffs like plague, nephlem weapons, curare, etc although those are not spells so maybe that's why you didn't include them.

Also, fire cannonade and winter avatar seem to be repeated.

ps: hmm seems like the damage on lvl32 tempest on sky spirit seems pretty tame? but then (i'm guessing) it multihits, so the damage is higher than that shown on screen.

Yes they are not spells, but they are quite straightforward to factor into the existing structure so I might add them eventually.

Ty fixed.

Yep, it has no next delay, the bolts pierce and overlap their aoe.

Thanks guys :)

Also fixed a bug with Fire Splash's damage (it was a lot lower than it is supposed to be).
