November 2, 2005 by Asia Added Javascript support for Weapons on the NDKP Calculator November 1, 2005 by Asia Added Advanced Item search November 1, 2005 by Dirken We did a formula revamp in several areas to improve the scaling of items. Specific areas affected include: Increased value placed on +damage and +healing gear. Increased value on "To Hit" and critical strike gear for both spells and melee (normalized at a value of 1 DKP per crit/hit, except on warriors who are still capped at 5% to hit with 2-handers). Slightly increased the cost of parry for warriors to offset their cheaper "To Hit %". Slightly increased the cost of defense to offset the loss of Blizzard cutting it by 1/3rd across the board (should have been done months ago, I know). Shadowed the cost of 1-hand fist & mace weapons against swords (rather than inferior weapons of their same type). This change brings their cost directly in line with their relative power. Trinkets with cooldowns are utilizing a new pricing formula to balance out the increased cost of +damage and +healing. The formula is as follows: ( 100 + (Usage / Cooldown)) / 2 = % of % total % formula cost. To expound: 100 represents PvP value in a percentage (100%), plus the usage time of the trinket divided by its cooldown (which often overlap) which will arrive at the PvE value (often below 20%), then divided by two, totals the raw % of the total formula cost to be used as its pricepoint. For example: ToEP is determined to cost 42.0 DKP by the formulas. It has a 15 second use time, and a 90 second cooldown. However, its 15 second usage overlaps its cooldown, making its actual recycle time 75 seconds. Therefore, plug in the values and the formula would look like this: 100% + (15 / 75 = .2 or 20%) = 120% / 2 = 60%. 60% of 42.0 DKP brings us to a final cost of 25.2 DKP for the ToEP. I hope your face just melted. Rule addendum #1: No Refunds. Those who purchased items at full cost that were previously downgrade (i.e. prior to the changes) will not receive a refund for said item if it becomes an upgrade after price modifications. This was ultimately determined the fairest course of action to everyone involved in the particular raid where the item was purchased. As well, the buyer deemed the value of the item to be worth it at the time of purchase. - Fixed upgrades as follows - Shaman: Shield upgrade from Shield One Hand, Main Hand, Off Hand upgrade from One Hand, Main Hand and Off Hand - Casters (Mage, Priest, Warlock, Druids) Off-Hand Held in Hand upgrade from Off Hand, Held in Hand and not from Main Hand and One Hand Weapons - Fixed a bug where applying formulas were not updating Shaman and Hunter DKP accordingly. - Applied default secondary DKP value to display as Shaman and Hunter DKP October 18, 2005 Calculator - Updated the online calculator to default daggers to One-hand weapons. Install Files - Completed install files includes - EqDKP upgrade installation September 25, 2005 by Asia Visual: - Added DHTML Mouse Over effects on Weapons to display weapon stats - Completed Search Function for Ndkp, this feature allows the user to search for items or players in the system. - Applied a temporary wow template to the system so the new algorithm can go live immediately. - Sorted Player Purchases on Player pages by most current purchase to oldest purchase. - Added Armor Class to Item Display pages. - Paginated Items and Raids to ease up on page downloads. - Moved Alcaras's fun pages to the main navigation (Class Balance and Top Drops.) Algorithm: - Changed player display pages to recall player stats based on player names. (i.e. player.php?player=PlayerName) - Boss Drops - Users can now view items that have dropped per boss, by selecting Raids then sort by particular boss, then scroll down below the raid display. - Shadowed all Ranged weapons vs Cross Bows. This change affected DKP prices on ranged for both Hunters and Melee. The change affected all dkp earnings. - Changed Hunter Ranged DPS to 1.4 for all ranged weapons. This change affected all player dkp earnings. - Fixed a bug where weapon upgrades were upgrading or downgrading based on the most recent weapon purchases and not the current wielded weapons. This fix affected the rogues with more than 3 weapon purchases however, the overall change did affect all dkp earnings. - Added a feature to grant downgrades at 100% this will bypass the normal algorithm and apply a 100% DKP spent on the downgrade. nDKP by Nurfed v 1.02b - August 28, 2005 by Asia Completed dynamic admin forms Completed Session Authentication for Admin Section Added the ability for the admin to purge raids Added the ability for the admin to add players Added the ability for the admin to create new dungeons/bosses as necessary.
