Is the Cerebus really that good? My fury druid's attack rating goes from like 11k to 12k when swtiching between jalals and cerebus.

Its a 140% bonus to ar.


Their base ar are high due to fool's and scs and dex for mb and ofc in rings/jools, so it scales good.

140% boost to fool's mod is alone: (16,5*99* 2,4 = 3920 contra 1633...
Add:
370 ar from rings
200 charms
60 for 1 jool
5 each dex(230 x 5 = 1150
= 8191 after multiplied with visio... Then add ench / fury bonus / werewolf bonus... Dno if skill and visio is multiplicable adds or if summed %.

Have been working on a Melee Victory calculator for a while. Just add your stats and your opponent's stats to each tab and it will give you a win/lose ratio for melee duels:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ei2t5C4wylmY-qE8_BbiEHdIHrhxSG_oxqg971gbQFo/edit#gid=1648692021

Note that this gives an average. It doesn't mean you will definitively win a set of 6, especially if the win/lose is super close like 54% to 46%. It just means that if you were to do hundreds of duels vs. the same person that over time you will win slightly more on average. It's a good tool for tweaking life/defense/damage/attack rating to help you overcome a hump. It's not a "best of 6" set simulator by any means, although I could add that function in the future.

Nice! Thanks for this.

May be looking to build a fury here over the next few weeks.

Is it worth running a 4FPS high end weapon without fools? ie 2os eth cruel phase or fanged knife?

Curious on when it's worth it go to 4fps vs some other 5fps options

In fury vs fury you always want to go cruel masters over cruel fools. Against barbs and paladins it gets more complicated. You'd have to know their defense, damage, life, and attack rating and then compare it against yours.

Use my spreadsheet (I'm constantly updating with new stuff): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ei2t5C4wylmY-qE8_BbiEHdIHrhxSG_oxqg971gbQFo/edit?usp=sharing

Enter attack rating stuff to tab one, damage and life stuff to tab 2, and tab 3 will tell you where you stand on average. Tab 4 is to compare weapons against each other.

If I had access to any weapon in the game, I would use a 450% ed ettin axe with 250 attack rating and two 4015ias jewels vs everyone. Barring that, check the calc.
