      ​@@damnthisisabadnameI may be wrong, but isn't mode the most repeated number in the sequence? And most weapons in Terraria have damage under 100 (not 100% sure, but too lazy to check), so the sniper wouldn't be a likely mode candidate? Bcz it has very unique stats, high damage and very low fire rate.

  • @Sgt_Robo
    @Sgt_Robo 6 місяців тому +464

    This gives me an ungodly idea. Since you now have the data, you could then find the "average" weapon of each stage of terraria (pre-eye, post-skeletron, etc.) And then do a run limited to only those weapons.

    @hypercrafting 6 місяців тому +252

    i get that it was done for the sake of not complicating things too much, but 1 point of deviation in knockback should weigh quite a lot more than 1 point of deviation in damage, calculating the deviation in terms of percentage points and then averaging the results i think would have a better result, so the palladium repeater would have a 2.63% deviation in damage from the median, a 56.25% in kb, and a 20% in sell price, giving it a 13.15% average deviation (adding all the percentages and dividing by 6), while the dark lance would end up with only 10%

    I think it could be interesting to approximate weapons with a multivariable Gaussian - this would give weapon properties "automatic weights" based on their variation as well as account for correlation (like between damage, rarity, sell price)

    Now calculate the time it would take you to craft a slime crown only using slime drops (assuming you already have a ruby and the required crafting stations)

    • @TheLreez
      @TheLreez 6 місяців тому +3

      Approximately 4 hours 27 minutes.
      Assuming: A fresh world, forest biome, no spawn rate boosts, you are capable of killing slimes as fast as they can spawn, and that the listed drop quantities on the wiki are uniformly distributed (ie. 3 gold ore is just as likely as 7 gold ore is just as likely as 13 gold ore)
      1/20 slimes has a bonus item
      1/32 bonus items are some quantity of gold ore
      8 is the average quantity of gold ore dropped as a bonus drop (see above assumption about uniform distribution)
      Default spawn rate is 1/600
      Tick rate is 60/s
      4 gold ore per bar
      5 gold bars per crown
      Gel cost is negligible at this scale
      Thus:
      1/20 * 1/32 * 8 = 0.0125 gold ore per slime = 80 slimes per gold ore
      4 * 5 = 20 gold ore per crown
      80 * 20 = 1600 slimes per crown
      1/600 * 60 = 1/10 slime spawns per second = 10 seconds per slime spawn
      1600 * 10 = 16000 seconds = ~4 hours 27 minutes

  • @smellybunbun
    @smellybunbun 6 місяців тому +3

    I would have calculated deviation using standard deviations rather than raw points. Specifically absolute deviation since it's a more accurate measure of spread. Using that you could recalculate the stats and rank them based on the total of deviations of all the stats, that way larger stat numbers don't influence the result more than others like damage having way more an influence than .2 off of the crit chance mean.

      Hellevators. Just make 4 block-wide holes going from the surface to the Underworld. I don't think that the Corruption and Crimson can spread across walls - they just change the walls closest to blocks for aesthetic reasons. They also can't spread through platforms.
      Also, you don't have to literally dig the tunnels. Just use bombs and you'll have plenty of space to prevent spread.

    What does 6.5pts of Deviation mean? The data seems not to be normalized (the mean was not subtracted from the data and then divided by the standard deviation X-> (X-mu)/sigma), so it is hard to make sense of what it means to be 6.5pts deviation.
    Based on the results, you seem to have just added the distances away for each category to get 6.5, but this method would not guarantee the correct result. One needs to first normalize the data to do this, otherwise it makes no sense to add the stats directly together since a 1 point change in something like Rarity which only has a small range of outputs is weighted the same as a 1 point change in DMG which has a huge range of outputs.

    Early HM is technically the mid-game right? So the most average weapon is at the "mid"-game. Truly one of the weapons of all time.

    The best weapon however, for a terrarian, is their own determination to throw themselves at everything until that thing dies.
    That's what I've learned from personal playthroughs, at least.

      I read this as the best weapon is the terrarian and I was gonna say so true

    I knew a repeater would be one of the two.

    Couldn't you have used the mode of the categorical data, such as weapon type, and factored that in?

    You couldn't have posted this a month ago before I spent weeks writing JS code to manually scrape and fetch data from the wikis?
