#2 Processor Chip Calculator

By BigStupidJellyfish | 2022-January-22 | Updated 2022-October-26

The #2 Processor chip is rather annoying to evaluate in typical ARSMG echelons, with various combinations of ROF tiles/crit tiles/crit auras. You can form a few general ideas about it, but factors like ROF tiles, crit tiles, and frame breakpoints can be hard to predict the impact of. I made this spreadsheet not too long ago to provide a very specific way of computing equipment options, where you can enter a doll's stats, all fairy auras/tiles in the echelon, their own skill, and get an estimation of the performance of each reasonable equipment option.

Spreadsheets can be annoying to work with, so here's a web port of that sheet. Hopefully a bit easier to access/mess around with. I've pre-filled some fairly reasonable values to work off of. Some additional notes about number entry are included at the bottom. The original spreadsheet also has numerous comments.

Base stats (with affection, not including equipment)

Base FP Base ROF Base ACC



Base Crit rate Target EVA Target Armor



Tiles and passive buffs

Net FP buff Net ROF buff Net ACC buff



Net Crit rate buff Net Crit damage buff


Skills

FP skill ROF skill ACC skill



Crit rate skill Skill duration (s) Skill cooldown (s)



Equipment customization

HV FP VFL Crit rate EOT ACC



EOT FP EOT ROF ITI ACC



ITI ROF Chip FP Chip ROF



Concentrated Chip FP Concentrated Chip ROF Concentrated Chip CD



VFL-like SPEQ customization

VFL SPEQ FP VFL SPEQ Crit damage VFL SPEQ ACC

Additional notes#

Theoretical DPS numbers, from a damage simulator or not, don't always correspond well to real performance. For best results, test your teams. See also: The Problem with Damage Simulators.

Base stats: enter the base stat, including affection, without equipment/fairies/tiles. Example: with no equipment, my ADS has 50+5 FP. Enter 55. Example: with maxed HV ammo equipped, my ADS has 70+5 FP. Enter 55, or enter 75 and change the "HV FP" field later to 0. Crit rate should be entered as a decimal, so 0.2 for most ARs and 0.3 for RFB/Angelica/AUG/Medusa/ACR.

Tiles and passive buffs: enter the net multiplier from all these. "1" corresponds to no net buff, "1.75" corresponds to a 75% buff. Example: UMP45 tiles and a 5* Damage II Artillery fairy means a passive FP buff of 1.2 (UMP45) * 1.15 (D2) * 1.55 (Artillery) = 2.139 and a 30% crit rate tile. Enter 2.139 in the "Net FP buff" field and 1.3 in the "Net Crit rate buff" field.

Skills: enter the skill multiplier from the AR's own skill. Same deal as above - a 75% selfbuff should be entered as a 1.75 multiplier. If you want weirder skills and factors accounted for, you're far outside of simple web calculator territory and a damage sim is recommended.

Equipment customization: I've pre-filled typical values for max calibration/enhancement gold equipment. If you want to check numbers with other tiers, edit values as appropriate.

SPEQ customization: a few SPEQs, like what RFB, MDR, and G36 have, are like a VFL with some bonus stats. Use these to add in these stats and consider the "VFL+X" fields to mean "SPEQ+X." In RFB's case, the bonus crit damage should be entered as "0.18".
