Idea - Optimal skill tree? #1945

Open joseims opened 4 years ago

joseims commented 4 years ago

Wouldn't it be possible to do a DFS throught the skill tree looking for the maximum damage for a given skill and equips? ( just disconsider jewels, this part could be adjusted by hand). You could also set another parameters like minimum % multiplyer etc. This seems fair reasonable given the small tree (for computation size)

I thought about this not but a couple of minutes ago too, as I was looking at a tree and attempting to prune it to get to better nodes. FOR THAT MATTER, given that it can look into your inventory, why not have something that could determine what the ideal setup given your gear in the stash would work?

There ARE reasons why sheer DPS doesn't work out as something to optimize for. Survival is important too. And it doesn't account for complex situations like... storm brand not particularly benefiting from cast speed.
