User blog:AndRollOut/Deck Damage Output Estimator

Hi all,

Deck Power is not always accurate in showing how powerful your deck is.

To estimate how much damage my deck would deal against a particular boss, I built this simple calculator in Excel. It helps see what happens if I swap weapons and bots into the team. Click the link below for the Excel:

How to use:

To estimate how much damage your team will do, go to your Team page in TFL, and hit "edit" to see everybody's Atk stats, punch those numbers in the Excel sheet. Then, you'll need to watch at least one combat against [whichever boss you're interested in] to know how much damage that boss deals per hit, roughly. Take that and estimate, based on each bot's Health, how many hits the bot can take from the boss before dying.

When you've punched all that in, the calculator should have estimated how much damage is done at the bottom row. This is correct for that particular boss. If a different boss deals much more (or less) damage, your bots will live longer/shorter and the deck damage output will change.

This doesn't account for swingy-ness of damage due to criticals, but should indicate fairly correctly the ballpark of your damage.

Let me know if it's grossly inaccurate and how I can improve this! Thanks and happy hunting.
