Re: CER or equivalent combat rating
I uploaded the file I made (.ods) to calculate the CER to this address:
http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=...11784142483064 I got it to work accurately with the example Lady Ion, and then I tried with the Boneflower and Acid Spider as well. Unfortunately, it seems to be off a bit off, so if anyone wanna improve upon it, feel free to and let me know! |

Re: CER or equivalent combat rating
Any idea how this compares to the one on the web?
http://www.gurpscalculator.com I'm curious to know if calculated values differ. |

Re: CER or equivalent combat rating
Well, the one I did you can see each line and the calculation for it. I have no idea how the website does the calculation.
If you have any suggestions, find any errors, or make any modifications, feel free to post them here |

Re: CER or equivalent combat rating
Do people have a "typical PC CER" they use for designing encounters before knowing party composition? I just worked through some examples using 250 point templates in Adventurers, and got everything from answers in the 20s for non-combat casters to answers in the 60s or even low 70s for a Knight aggressively optimized with Weapon Master and a huge pile of ST. Maybe CER 40 per PC might be a safe assumption? 35 if you're cautious about not killing PCs? Can anyone speak from experience?

IF you don't want to do that use Kyle Norton aka Zuljita's method which is I believe CER 35 or 40 per PC.

The exhaustive combinatoric process seems excessive. As an experiment, I tried creating a party of the sort that might be created by a group of stereotypical RPG players new to GURPS specifically, and in my scenario they mostly end up creating characters in the 30-35 CER range, except that the "martial" templates naturally lend themselves to higher CERs, so it balances out to an average CER of maybe 35. (Really, with the martial classes you can get CERs in the 50s without really trying, and even an actively anti-optimized Knight can end up with a CER of 40). |
