Glitch Alchemy Calculator

Hey Glitcheys I'm a spreadsheet wizard and I made one that will tell you how many rock chunks you need to create your desired powder.  I'll fill it out more as I learn recipes.

Hope this is helpful for someone!

  • No-No Powder is really cheap to make :)

  • Very helpful. 

    I've been wondering if it would be worth it to make a product shuffle profit spreadsheet. What in the heck is a shuffle profit? Well, say someone is selling chunks of sparkly at a low price, but you don't know if it would be profitable to buy the ore, grind them, compund them, and make powders to resell. The spreadsheet would tell you the cheapest way that showed the most profit at which stage. If it would be cheaper to buy the compounds, or grind them yourself, etc.  

    But alas, no spreadsheet skills. Guess it's back to manual paper and pencil :D

  • It could get complicated since the energy cost increases as you buy more basic ingredients and energy costs vary based on skill level (varies player to player.)

    An energy independent model would work though.  If you hooked it up to the Glitch API along with this alchemy data you could query active auctions and determine how profitable it is to buy ingredients and create powders ;)

  • Derpingtons, we've got a group for people who love the spreadsheets and like to calculate or gather data: http://www.glitch.com/groups/RA957GCEE082O3I/  We Got Dodgson, we're also working on setting up a database for a lot of these sorts of calculations.  If you want to post in the group with what you're after, we can calculate all sorts of price points! I just need to know what people are interested in knowing so I know what to prioritize.  We'll also be building a system where you can interactively query your own skills via the API or enter them manually to have it calculate things for your own energy costs.

  • awesome Magic Monkey, I'll join the group!  My powder calculations take the rarity of finding ores into account so they are optimized for minimum sparkly usage, this is slightly different than the powder calcs the group already has.

  • Thanks for doing the leg-work on this. I was contemplating doing the same thing myself. This looks great!
