Cert Calculator?
I wonder how accurate this is?

Ya i saw that on the official NC boards, i dunno the acuracy but i figure if u take out 2 of your points you could get a safe estimate on what you can become.

That things totally made up! Whats with all those Medium armour classes? And there's no max... nah it's just someone mucking around; we don't have any information on costs or indeed a COMPLETE certificate list. Even though its late in the day now, these things will still change, even during inclusive beta.

Actually it's not very accurate at all. Most of it is just assumptions and deductions. Some of it is based on fact but even that can be changed with beta. The devs aren't releasing very many hard numbers right now because they are constantly in flux and they don't want misinformation out there. As an example, when SmokeJumper first released information about the towers, he said there'd be 30 per continent. A couple days later he revised that to 15 because 30 'was too many'. But I do have faith that as more information is released that calculater will keep up. So by release I'd be willing to bet that it will be accurate, but right now there's just not enough information.

No, it's not totally made up. It's actually very well informed and laid out. The numbers themselves may not be accurate but the tree looks like it's probably close to what it will be like. It also appears he's got most of the certifications listed pretty accurately based on current information. Alot of effort went into that, don't go dismissing it out of hand, but don't take it as gospel either as it is just based on current information (which is in constantly in flux) and assumptions.

I apologies for my comments earlier; I was half asleep! This calculator does look good - it's clear alot of works been done.

I didn't think the devs have said what dependencies there will be for certs?

I saw this thing the other day, its definatly a good guesstimate. Fun to mess around with

[archaic1128]

i was messing around w/ that as well. I was also wondering how accurate it was? It makes me wonder why the Max is under agile?

[Airlift]

All armor is under Agile, right?

[Yogi]

That's slick.

I remember using the character generator for DAoC a long time ago.

That was before I realized the game was bland and boring.

[LesserShade]

^yes. the calculator's were pretty useful

[txMaddog]

Good job! I like it!

Hopefully the maker will keep it updated as new info comes available. I think the basic structure is there and it kinda make sense (1 cert for your basic stuff, 2 for next level and 3 certs for the air vehicles).

I also used the DAoC char builder, when using the char builder got to be more fun than the game, I quit DAoC.

rofl, yeah. I spent more time trying to calculate my Eldritch than actually playing him.

I got suckered into buying shrouded isles.. i spent all my time after that with the char calc creating a half dozen new characters that never made it past lvl 11 :P
