Stats progression

Effect stats, like from this skill, scale much more complex than before. It's impossible to display the calculation method in a simple way like it's now. What to do? Well, a possible way: in my calculation package here https://www.lotrointerface.com/downloads/info1022-CalcStat.html I have a multiline definition, but this is all to technical for the normal reader.
Using the package will give all the values from level 1 to 120... Perhaps I could deliver a spreadsheet which can calculate with this package for the purpose of delivering the effect values.
Interesting would be some automatic extraction from the package by the wiki website as the package can deliver many stats which are now entered manually in wiki in a static way, but which are in game calculated dynamically and can change at any time (possibly influencing 1000s of items in a blink of the eye) by the will of the developers with changing some basic progression.
Think here also about the change in new end level from currently 120 to whatever next expansion will bring. Every stat is getting 'normalized' this means that Lotro has a few basic progressions from which all stats are/will be determined. When end level changes, usually this will give adjustments in previous end level segments, to make it more easy to level with quest gear, and then a new progression segment is added at the end. If this is the case then it would mean that an incredible amount of stats will change again in the not so far future. --Gisel Avaleazar (talk) 06:57, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
