DDO Character Planner - DDOBuilder Version 2

[DarkSlimeSera]

Are feats supposed to change for all of the builds for the same life? It seems kind of strange that builds can have different classes but not feats.

Are feats supposed to change for all of the builds for the same life? It seems kind of strange that builds can have different classes but not feats.

Hmm, I'm trying to replicate this again but it doesn't seem to do this anymore, I suppose it's probably user error in some way

 

[Maetrim of Cannith]

Maetrim, would it be difficult to turn the gear dataset inside out so I could put it what I wanted to prioritize and have it tell me what gear to get?

This would be hard for me to do. But it's something you can actually already do in external gear planners (See links in post #1). These gear sets can then be imported in to the builder.

the Conduit of the Titans artifact set (Legendary Toven's Hammer & Titan Control Matrix) is on the builder as a 3 piece set, when it should only be a 2 piece set

Fixed for next release.

First off let me stress the value of Builder and it help in trying to get the gear Tetris right in game. Is there any way on me the users end to add the Missing orange Aug slot on Colossus, the Breaking Wall?

You can locally fix the item file. All item files go by their name so you should be able to find it pretty easily. Item files are human text readable.xml files. You can edit the file in any text editor and add the missing augments by copy/pasting an existing augment section and changing the coour to "Orange". Like this:

<ItemAugment>
<Type>Orange</Type>
</ItemAugment>

I will also fix the item for the next release so any upgrades in the future will not lose the augment on you when the those changes take effect (All items in gear builds are auto upgraded to the latest version on load to pick up item fixes)

 

[Maetrim of Cannith]

Build 2.0.0.69 Now Available

This release brings us many fixes reported by the community plus a new pane "Content i Own" which allows you to turn off content your account does not have access to. This gives you the ability to filter out items from the Item select dialogs so you can auto hide gear you cannot loot in game.

New Feature seen in a request from a Reddit post: A new "Content I Own" pane has been added (* in toolbar), which allows you to configure which adventure packs you do (default you own) or do not own (saved per character).
---If a pack is marked as not owned, then the item select dialog(s) will exclude items that are from that adventure pack (some items may still not filter correctly, please report any that show up when they should not)
---You may need to toggle the pane off then on to get it to show up

Something funky is happening with Shining Reliquary weapons, the bonuses they give don't seem to be taken off when you unequip them, and every time you equip the same one it adds its bonuses on top of what you were already getting from equipping it before.

 

[Kenaustin]

Hi Maetrim, I have found the following bug with builder 2.0.0.69:

• For Item Buff <Type>Intelligence Skills - Exceptional Bonus</Type>:
  • DisplayText is currently: Intelligence Skills - Exceptional Bonus +4: Passive +4 Exceptional bonus to the Intelligence based skills of: Disable Device, Repair, Search
  • DisplayText should be: Intelligence Skills - Exceptional Bonus %v1: Passive %v1 Exceptional bonus to the Intelligence based skills of: Disable Device, Repair, Search, and Spellcraft.

I was trying to play around with the different panes and now I can't get most of them to appear (like the Skills and Feats ones for sure). Any help that someone might suggest? Thanks!

 

[fitzabir]

Yo maetrim!
I think in update 68 something went arong with Tempest: Tempest enhancement (core2). the offhand chance does not increase.
thanks

It is possible you may have set them at a size of 0. There ate 2 ways to reset your view layout:

1: Use the View: Reset Screen Layout function
2: In the application location directory, delete the DDOBuilder.ini file (which contains the layout but also you most recently used file list)

I will look into this one.

Hi Maetrim, the item Tiny brain in a Tiny Jar is still bugged in builder 2.0.0.70, as follows:

• the item file currently has the following entry for the second item buff:

<Buff>​

<Type>AbilityBonus</Type>​

<BonusType>Enhancement</BonusType>​

<Description1>Intelligence</Description1>​

<Item>Intelligence</Item>​

</Buff>​

• it should be:

<Buff>​

<Type>Intelligence Skills - Exceptional Bonus</Type>​

<Value1>2</Value1>​

<BonusType>Exceptional</BonusType>​

</Buff>​

Third times the charm I guess.

 

[Kenaustin]

Hi Maetrim, more bugs I have noticed in builder 2.0.070 as follows:

• Despite changes made in builder 2.0.0.62, both the Endless Vigil and Light the Dark Abilities from the Unyielding Sentinel Destiny Tree are still not selectable on a Level 20 Paladin, as the Automatically Granted Level 2 Feat Lay on Hands, is not being recognised as a valid prerequisite for either of them.
• The Improved Shield Mastery Feat is currently providing the following non-cumulatives bonuses:
  • Melee Power: +6
  • Buckler and Small Sheild PRR: 5
  • Large Shield PRR: 10
  • Tower Sheld PRR: 15
• In game these bonuses are cumulative, so they should be:
  • Melee Power: +3
  • Buckler and Small Sheild PRR: 3
  • Large Shield PRR: 5
  • Tower Sheld PRR: 5
• The Doublestrike bonus for the Greater Shield Mastery Feat is currently flagged as a Combat Style when it should be a Feat.
• The Melee Power bonus for the Greater Shield Mastery Feat is currently set to 4 when it should be 3.
• The Melee Power bonus for the Improved Shield Mastery Feat is currently flagged as a Feat when it should be a Combat Style.
• Also, the Melee Power bonuses from Shield Mastery, Improved Shield Mastery (once corrected) and Greater Shield Mastery Feats do not stack, as the Bonus Type Combat Style is currently set as Highest Only instead of Always.
• Equipped Small, Large and Tower Shields are currently not providing their respective 5/10/15 bonuses to PRR.
• The Grandfather's Shield: Healing Amplification (Rare) Filigree is currently providing an extra +2 PRR bonus, when it should be an extra +2 MRR bonus.
• The Unbreakable: Constitution (Rare) Filigree is currently not providing an extra +2 PRR bonus.
• The Unbreakable: Melee Threat Increase (Rare) Filigree is currently not providing an extra +2 PRR bonus.
• The Mobility Feat is currently not providing its +2 Max Dex Bonus to Tower Shields.
• Without a shield equipped, my Paladin's Max Dex Bonus in game is 18 versus 20 in the builder. The builder breakdown is as follows:
  • Mobility: 2
  • Sacred Defender: Sacred Armor Mastery : 3
  • Vanguard: Vanguard Armor Mastery: 3
  • Armor Max Dex Bonus: 6
  • Legendary Armor of Sunset: Green: Sapphire of Armored Agility: 2
  • Shield Max Dex: 2 <----- What is this? I am assuming this is the erroneous entry.
  • Fencing Master: 2
• The Follower of the Sovereign Host Feat has the description:
  • You follow the Sovereign Host. You are proficient with Longswords and gain +1 to hit wih them. Longbows are considered as a favoured weapon. (The last bit should read: Longswords are considered as a favoured weapon)
• The Paladin's Aura of Good provides a passive stackable +1 bonus to AC and Saves to self and allies in game (which is not limited to just evil enemies, contrary to the description), which it is not doing in the builder.
• The Use Magice Device and Perform skills are showing skills totals in the builder, despite having no trained ranks in them. They should be displaying as N/A.
• The Vanguard: Vanguard Armor Mastery enhancement provides an undocumented +3 Max Dex Bonus to Tower Shields in game.
• Divine Crusader: Just Cause +1 Bonus to Attack, Damage, AC and Saves only applies versus Evil Creatures, so it should not be configured as an always on bonus in the builder.
• The % AC Bonus from Shields is being incorrectly calculated:
  • In the builder: Shield 150% Bonus of 25 (Shield (40) + Enhancement (-15): 38
  • In the game: Shield 150% Bonus of 40: 60
• The % bonuses to Armor Class (from Combat Expertise (10%), Sacred Defender: Sacred Shield (10%), Legendary Solar Gem of Armor Layers (15%), Grandfather's Shield Filigree Set Bonus (5%), Bravery Throughout Filigree Set Bonus (5%), Unbreakable Filigree Set Bonus (5%) etc.) which provide a total 50% bonus to Armor Class in this instance, should be applied only after the Total AC has been adjusted for the % bonus increases to shields. For example, the Armor Class breakdown for my Paladin, in game, is as follows:
  
  • Base AC Bonus: 10
  • Max Dex Bonus: 13
  • Armor Bonus: 86, from:
    
    • Legendary Armor of Sunset: 57
    • Sacred Defender - Reinforced Armor (+50% Armor AC): 29
  • Shield Bonus: 100, from:
    
    • Legendary Tower Shield of the Fallen Age: 40
    • Perfect Shield Mastery (+20% Shield AC): 8
    • Human: Shield Mastery (+15% Shield AC): 6
    • Sacred Defender - Sacred Shield Mastery (+15% Shield AC): 6
    • Sacred Defender - Reinforced Shield (+50% Shield AC): 20
    • Unyielding Sentinel - Shield Prowess: (+50% Shield AC): 20
  • Natural Armor Bonus: 38
  • Deflection Bonus: 12
  • Misc Bonus: 42, from:
    
    • Armory Guild Buff: 6
    • Azure Guard: 6
    • Aura of Good: 1
    • Bravery Throughout Armor Class: 4
    • Grandfather's Shield Armor Class: 4
    • Unbreakable Filigree Set Bonus: 5
    • Bulwark of Defense: 4
    • Vanguard - Shield Specialisation I to IV: 4
    • Sacred Defender - Bulwark Aura: 5
    • Sacred Defender - Divine Revelation: 3
  • Feat Bonus: 32, from:
    
    • Vanguard - Vanguard Armor Mastery: 3
    • Sacred Defender - Sacred Armor Mastery: 3
    • Draconic Incarnation - Dragonhide: 6
    • Divine Crusader - Weather Any Blow: 5
    • Unyielding Sentinel - Hardened: 15
  • AC Sub-Total: 333
  • 50% Bonus to Armor Class: 167
  • AC Total: 500
  • The builder will match the in game values for my Paladin's Max Dex Bonus / Melee Power / Doublestrike/ AC / PRR / MRR at least, once the above related changes are made. Progress, however, I need to muster the courage to look at the HP mismatches next.

Erroneous auto added effect removed.

• The Follower of the Sovereign Host Feat has the description:

• The Paladin's Aura of Good provides a passive stackable +1 bonus to AC and Saves to self and allies in game (which is not limited to just evil enemies, contrary to the description), which it is not doing in the builder.

Effects added.

• The Use Magic Device and Perform skills are showing skills totals in the builder, despite having no trained ranks in them. They should be displaying as N/A.

The builder shows what your totals would be. In this specific case I am going to leave this unchanged.

• The Vanguard: Vanguard Armor Mastery enhancement provides an undocumented +3 Max Dex Bonus to Tower Shields in game.

Note added to enhancement and effects updated.

• Divine Crusader: Just Cause +1 Bonus to Attack, Damage, AC and Saves only applies versus Evil Creatures, so it should not be configured as an always on bonus in the builder.

Requirement added

• The % AC Bonus from Shields is being incorrectly calculated:
  • In the builder: Shield 150% Bonus of 25 (Shield (40) + Enhancement (-15): 38
  • In the game: Shield 150% Bonus of 40: 60

I completely removed the stuff dodo with adjusting for the shield enhancement bonus. Looks like I went a bit too far there.

• The % bonuses to Armor Class (from Combat Expertise (10%), Sacred Defender: Sacred Shield (10%), Legendary Solar Gem of Armor Layers (15%), Grandfather's Shield Filigree Set Bonus (5%), Bravery Throughout Filigree Set Bonus (5%), Unbreakable Filigree Set Bonus (5%) etc.) which provide a total 50% bonus to Armor Class in this instance, should be applied only after the Total AC has been adjusted for the % bonus increases to shields.

Would you be able to provide your build file to me, so I can run tests against it. As this is a complicated area, I don't want to try and implement a load of changes and work out that I didn't need to do them after the other changes have already been applied.

I would also like to thank you for putting so much effort into your research and bug reports.

• Most game data is now in external files to support easier updating

• Better skill entry setup
• Favor Tracking
• Better Cannith Crafting support
• Automatic and Granted feats moved to their own areas
• Context sensitive help (In progress....)
• Spell tooltips will report approximate average damage

Thank you for the update! With a shuriken, using a topaz of quick movements shows the Quick Draw feat in the Attack Speed breakdown as a value of 10. If I take the actual feat, the value shows up as 20.

I did not know what the actual value was meant to be for Quick Draw. A comment in that section of the data says I guessed. Changed it to 20 for next release.
