Just curious if anyone could verify S3 16-4 for backpacks? According to the spreadsheet during Valhalla event it is supposed to produce more than 0.7 backpacks/WE. During my farming I got less than 0.2. Something seems off there, sure I will keep going a bit more, just to see if it gets any closer, but by now it seems unlikely to make such a huge turnaround…
It´s not even remotely in the same area. More than a threefold difference? Doesn´t sound like RNG to me.
What´s the run count on this level in the database? Is it possible data got put into the wrong column? Or am I just plain dumb and looking at the wrong spreadsheet or playing the wrong 3-16-4?

The run count is under the “Check” sheet. Only 3 runs for S3 16-4. So the data is not reliable yet.

:raised_hand: We need more people contributing data especially for Hard levels. Your data is usable even if you are using Loot Tickets.

Anyone who wishes to help with the farming data collection and data entry, please contact me at Line [LineID: je3zy].

Ah good hint, will check run numbers there in the future! how about you make a conditional formatting and grey out all the data that has run numbers below 20 (or whatever cutoff number you deem as good enough)?
Would be a much more useful tool if you could right away see which part of the data is reliable and which one is not. Also might help getting people (like myself) to help out making data reliable :smiley:

As to 3-16-4, well I just did 17 runs and got a total of 14 backpacks, which means pretty exactly 0.2 per WE. That level is plain garbage for backpacks. Didn´t save info on other items, so nothing I can send to you, sorry.

@Nynaeve_alMeara you may want to take this level off your recommendations as well. I saw you are using the data from this project for your guide. And probably best to check all of your recommended levels for run counts.

Actually I just thought about it @J_3ezy

How about in the front where you display the best levels and their score, have 2 columns each instead: The first one that only uses reliable data and the second one that only uses unreliable data. That way you can make recommendations for people based on data (the reliable ones), but at the same time you can make people “hunt” for better levels (the unreliable ones) and then either prove or disprove if they actually are better.

Ah sorry and another question: Why is in S3Hard the entire first 15 provinces missing? Even on the check sheet?

I can see that on the Normal sheet there are some stages missing on the spreadsheet, the ones that are on the check sheet greyed out without data, as opposed to the one that have 0 runs, those do show up on the spreadsheet. So I am guessing as you enter the first set of data these stages would then show up?

Appreciate your feedback and suggestions. I’ll see what i can do regarding this. Maybe i’ll add a “Run Count” row with CF to highlight anything below 30 runs

The spreadsheet for S3 was initially created to capture data from Province 16-36 as Barry has completed for Province 1-15. So i’ve only prepared all the sheets required for Province 16-36.

I believe there are some users who would like to also have data from Province 1-15 in this spreadsheet so they are adding the sheets progressively.

How about adding the Dragons as well?

Either that or just copy paste the data over. It´s complicated enough looking through one spreadsheet when looking for something. Having to compare columns in 2 different spreadsheets is even more complicated :wink:

I collected the first data, but I don’t have the templates
