How does the optimizer decide the split?

Each class has a baseline weight for every stat. That baseline is multiplied by your chosen playstyle modifiers, normalised into percentages, and then applied to your point pool. Largest-remainder rounding guarantees the parts sum to the exact total.

Why does the glass cannon build dump Vitality?

Glass cannon maximises offence at the cost of survival, so its playstyle modifier sharply reduces the Vitality weight and boosts the damage stats. You trade defence for the highest possible output, which suits players who dodge rather than tank.

Will the numbers always add up to my pool?

Yes. After computing ideal fractional allocations, the tool floors each stat and then hands out the leftover points to the stats with the largest remainders. The final allocation always equals the whole-number total you entered.

Is there one universally best stat spread?

No. The best spread depends on your class and how you play. A tanky Warrior wants heavy Vitality, while a speed Ranger wants Agility. Pick the playstyle that matches how you actually fight rather than chasing a single ideal.

Can I use this for respec planning?

Yes. If your game lets you reset points, enter your total respec pool to see a clean target distribution. Allocate toward those numbers and you will land an efficient, class-appropriate build.

Spreading stat points evenly is rarely optimal. Each class leans on different core attributes, and your playstyle shifts the priority even further toward damage, survival, or mobility. This optimizer turns those preferences into a concrete point split that always adds up to your exact pool.

How it works

The tool starts from a per-class baseline weight vector across the four stats. It multiplies that baseline by your playstyle modifiers, normalises the result into percentages, and scales by your point pool:

weight[s]  = classBase[s] × styleModifier[s]
share[s]   = weight[s] / sum(weight)
ideal[s]   = share[s] × pool

Because ideal values are fractional, the tool floors each one and then distributes the remaining points to the stats with the largest fractional remainders. This largest-remainder method guarantees the final whole-number allocation sums to your pool exactly.

Tips and notes

Treat the output as a target, not a rigid rule. A Warrior on a tanky playstyle loads Vitality for boss attrition, while a Ranger on a speed build pours into Agility for dodge and crit uptime. Glass cannon deliberately starves Vitality to maximise output, which only pays off if you can avoid taking hits. If your game allows respecs, feed it your full reset pool and allocate toward the suggested numbers.
