[Tool] Effective Life Calculator

Effective Life and Recovery Calculator

Link to calculator: here

Features
* Calculate Effective Life and Recovery
* Calculate Mind over Matter
* Calculate Optimal Life/Mana ratio
* See how well your build defends against each damage type and source
* Adjust monster stats

What is it?
* Calculator designed to calculate the Effective Life and Recovery of a character.
* Effective Life is the theoretical maximum damage a character can take before dying.
Spoiler
Random values such as Dodge or Block are taken to be linear multipliers as these cause the damage taken to be 0 or to not take a hit at all depending on the mod.

* The higher the Effective Life of a character, the tankier the character is.
* Effective Recovery is calculated in a similar way to Effective Life, except uses your Recovery as a base.
* The higher the Effective Recovery of a character, the faster the character will Recover Effective Life.

How do I use it?
* Make a copy of this spreadsheet by going to File>Make a Copy to be able to edit.
* Input all the data that you have about your character into the grey cells, (you can get this info easily using Path of Building).
* Results will then be displayed in the preview section at the top of the Data sheet and more detailed results will be displayed in the Results sheet.
* At the top of the Data sheet is a section for Mind over Matter or other similar effects
Spoiler
If the Mana/Life ratio is insufficient it will be highlighted red, this means you are not making full usage of Mind over Matter and you will run out of Mana before Life. It also shows the Mana/Life Recovery ratio which is the rate at which you recover mana compared to life, if this ratio is insufficient when you are taking constant damage you will run out of Mana before Life. The optimal values for Mana and Mana Recovery are shown at the bottom of this table.

* Adjust the weights for different Damage Types/Sources. The weight is the fraction of the frequency of that Damage Type/Source compared to the other Damage Types/Sources.
* Adjust the monster stats to see the affect on Armour, Evasion and Crit. The larger the hit the weaker the effect of Armour, the higher the Accuracy the less chance to Evade a hit.
