I hate to zombie threads, but I wanted to make an addition to your tiering calculator. I can send you the contents of the excel spreadsheet if you preferred. This is based on calculations I made at current cost of diamonds ($99.99 for 3000) and the recent sale price for Purified Fusion Stones (25 diamonds per) to figure out the cost of clean tiering an item. I converted the chart to an image, which I'll post below:

T20 every piece of gear for about 5 billon. Not bad.

T20 every piece of gear for about 5 billon. Not bad.

It's actually closer to $5.7billion

Quoted from "Mavoc;102106"

Edit: Thanks to thilu for pointing out a simple logic error on my part that caused the gold costs to be higher then they should be.

I was looking at the chart and it says you need 3 transmute charges for a T3 and 9 for a t4. All you need for a T3 stone is 1 charge and a T4 you will need 4 charges. I didnt look at it any more then that but I assume if the numbers for t3 and t4 are off the rest will be off also.

Lol, someone who goes to all that trouble isn't going to make that kind of simple mistake. You're overlooking something:

It's 3 charges because you need 3 T3 stones to make one T4 stone.

So you need 9 more to make 3 T4 stones, for a total of 12 charges, and so on. The numbers are correct.

ok ya thats right then, i was think that was the calulations for make just 1 stone and not 3 of the same tier.

The equation for all of this:

1. To determine total charges:

(3^(n-2)-1) / 2 + 3^(n-2) ;

**n = desired tier** and this equation is based on
starting at tier 3. (n-2) signifys we are starting with t3, if its (n-3) that
signifys we are starting with t4.
So if you use a different starting tier, change (n-2) to the proper set.
*review bottom of text for more info.

2. To determine number of belts/fusion stones:


3^(n-2) ; n= desired tier, same as above. (n-3)= starting at t4....

3. Total Gold Cost:

Let y= cost of belt; z= cost of fusion stone.
(3^(n-2))(y+z) or y(3^(n-2))+ z(3^(n-2)) ;

understand that they are the same equations, although one is symplified.

***If you chose to use pfs then only calculate for the belts to
determine the overall gold needed.

x(3^(n-2))

4. Diamond cost at regular sale:

Let q= cost of charges (r= cost of pfs if you so chose to clean mod)

q((3^(n-2)-1)/2 + (3^(n-2)))/10 (we are using dividing by 10 since 10 come in a regular package)

if cleaning tiering use q((3^(n-2)-1)/2 + (3^(n-2)))/10+(r)(3^(n-2))

That is the calculating formulas for tiering and clean tiering...read everything. Have any question, pm me. (Sorry for it being so long, some people need everything explained).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
(n-(mana stone tier we are starting with)-1) = mana stone tier we are starting with. (confusing with the wording, but lets say you start with all t7 stones, then we know n-(7)-1 or n-6 signifies that we are starting with t7s then we will go to all the equations which apply and plugin n-6 rather than n-3) thus:

(n-2) -> tier 3
(n-3) -> tier 4
(n-4) -> tier 5
(n-5) -> tier 6
and so on...

i dont know if im doing this right or not but it not camparing... when i entered my dagger info into the calculator its giving me a different number then what i have in game...
my dagger:

Fin Dagger dura: 110/110
tier 3
phy dmg: 517.2 atk spd: 2.2

when i put those info the results:
t
Tier Phy Damage Phy DPS
3 541.2 246.00 373.2 279.90
4 595.3 270.60 410.5 307.89
5 649.4 295.20 447.8 335.88
6 703.6 319.80 485.2 363.87
7 757.7 344.40 522.5 391.86

plz help... ty

I believe the spreadsheet takes into account over-dura/hammered items, which could account for some of the difference.
