Best Imbuing Calculator Out There?

in General Discussions
I want to get back into crafting with my crafter. I remember using an excel spreadsheet back in the day made by some dude that started with a "Z"...(Like Zoloft's or something). I know knuckleheads has a calculator too but I've never used it. What is the "go-to" tool people are using knowadays?

    Knuckleheads FTW!!!
    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.

    Thank you for the lightning fast response. I'll have to start learning how to use that

    Knuckleheads is great, much better that they revamped the custom aspect on items, I still use my own because I have a few gripes but its a great tool.

    I'll upload my Crafty McCraft face spreadsheet to Google sometime and post it these forums, might clear up a lot for some people on whats possible and how to do it... I'm big on procrastinating.

    I found a copy of that other excel based tool I used in the past. I seem to remember it was pretty good but it has not been updated. This was created by Zolaf from Catskills so I want to make sure I give him credit. I'll share it here, let me know if this is still a good tool:

    That would be a great help for Learners crafters !!

    Do you by any chance have it comprehensive of the Artifacts existing so that one can also Design a suit mixing up Artifacts and Imbued pieces ?

    And does it also factor in, by any chance, enhancing and reforging possibilities ?

    Thank you SO much @WornOutYourTool !!

    @Popps A lot of artifacts are randomly generated.  Yes, there are a number of documented ones, both found as loot and crafted.  But the large majority of them just happen to have more than 5 properties and/or have values higher than can be imbued.  Still, I agree it would be a good idea to have a list somewhere of the documented artifacts.

    Zolaf is a girl. And her spreadsheet works just fine.

    Is the soul forge you can craft as good as the queens one? Is it worth it to use the queens soul forge? 
  • MariahMariah Posts: 3,246Moderator
    the crafted soulforge is convenient in your house, but the one it Ter Mur city gives a bonus, and if you have the loyalty points to use it, the queen's soulforge gives a bigger bonus. https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/skills/imbuing/

    Thanks ... is there any difference between using say a regular ruby versus a fire ruby? I read a fire ruby is high intensity, just not sure how that plays into imbuing ?

    Fire ruby is one of the large special gems, originally from mining,but more sources have been added since, they are used in various crafted minor and major artifacts and some imbuing properties. They are not interchangeable with regular rubies.

    What does the bonus do? Is it success chance related or a slightly better statistical imbue?
  • MariahMariah Posts: 3,246Moderator
    success chance. If you scroll down the page in that link I posted you will find a table giving an example.

    Thanks Sliss!  I finally got around to registering on here.  I have provided a long-needed update for my calculator.  Please see the following link: https://community.stratics.com/threads/zolafs-imbuing-calculator.387943/
