up to date SC calc? + Tips for RoG use?

Jor · Post by **Jor** » Mon Oct 17, 2005 6:49 am

Hello there,
haven't tried to build a template for the last half a year or so and I feel the tools are a little outdated... so what tools do you use for building a template which have a good item database?

2nd question:
What's the best way to handle the RoG's? I mean - you can buy plenty of stuff if you need just a certain resist, ToA bonus or else... but how to handle this?

Atm I have my old KORT SC calc open and ALT-TAB to the market explorer to fiddle with the template but this is SLOOOOW.

But still - the most annoying thing is that lot's of items which don't look like 1-time RoG's are not in the item db...

doesnt realy take that long to put item details into one, whilst you are template building tbh.

I use synthetic realms tool available at http://www.syntheticrealms.com/Loki/index.html it's well worth paying for a license I dno't know about items db tho i enter mine manually :<

There's nothing wrong with using RoGs, but I'd only do it if they had an obscene amount of stats or caps that were going to either save you a lot of imbue on your SC or save you a lost of cash on the CM.

The only real issue is that no-one can copy your template easily if you have one or more RoGs in it.

Oh, and another vote for Loki here as well

Not worth it, kort is just fine. Why pay for a product when there is a free type of the same product out ?

If you can't be bothered to actually work on your template then you deserve to get ripped off. All the problem solving needed is there in your head, then you input your class and <shock> look for items fulfilling your needs.

You can use Loki's as much as you like completely free of charge, the only part of it that requires a license if you use it more than a few times is the Maximize SC utility function based on priorities you assign.

So your a tight arse with to much time on your hands, go you.
