Started to record videos a while back and still learning so overall quality isn’t the best (but hey, it is free advice).

Basically my idea is to explain topics that already has been beaten to death but people still have a hard time to grasp. So rather than posting huge chunks of numbers I modify my trackers to track the specific thing we are looking at. That way you don’t need to do math but see that the things actually works.

Figured I would create one thread instead of spamming multiple and update this one. Next up in line is a follow up on skills since I somehow forgot SIB completely (probably because it is useless) and I’ll show the difference between hunting flesh rippers and normal mobs. Looter is on the way as well, just need to collect enough data.

All tips and pointers are welcome. End goal is to learn to make somewhat professional videos before UE5. Right now main focus is still getting comfortable with my voice and learn to edit audio. I am doing my best to aim for brevity but man it’s rough. I never understood how much effort people put into videos.

Episode 1: Understanding Efficiency

I recently learned that we can add quizzes to YT videos so make sure to take notes so you are ready at the end of the semester.

Thank :heart:

Been a while since it got fairly boring. Made a quick video yesterday how to calculate markup on limited weapons properly and how to compare different efficiency weapons:

The video does a few extra steps to slow the process down and hopefully make it easier to understand. Once you get it use these:

Baseline weapon (highest efficiency): (paidMarkup+LifetimeCycle)/(LifetimeCycle)

And for the lower efficiency weapons you do:

1+(paidMarkup/LifetimeCycle)+(0.0007*EfficiencyDifference)

I have reached out to Sulje and asked him to add a calculator to EC. Please subscribe if you don’t already, my sister started a channel and we made a bet and it is very important that I win.

Trying to explain expected value, how it works and why it works.
