Utilizing Chat GPT for PERFECT Armor analysis

I am in the process of min/maxing armor stats for builds. Chat GPT is a godsend IF you understand how to utilize it. [b]Here is the prompt I gave:[/b] . [i]"I need you to analyze what type of armor I need to grind in Destiny 2. Every piece of armor has 6 stats. 3 of the 6 are spiked. The primary number is 30, the secondary 20, and the tertiary is 25. Additionally, each piece can roll out with a random masterwork that adds +5 to any random stat. The armor stats are broken into 6 different stats- Health, Melee, Grenade, Super, Class and Weapons. Remember, only 3 of them will be spiked. The other 3 stats will be +5. You wear 5 pieces of armor total. So in theory, the highest one stat can go is +175 (ie primary in the same category at +30x5, plus the Masterwork in the same category +25). However, you also have +50 points to allot in the form of armor mods. These are free to assign to any stat in increments of +10. The highest effective number for a stat is 200. Beyond 200 does nothing numerically for you. The primary and secondary stats are focused according your selected armor archetype. Not all combinations are available. For instance, the Powerhouse mod will be a primary in Weapons (ie +30) with a secondary in Super (ie +20), with a randomized tertiary (+25 in either Health, Melee, Grenade, or Class). I am going to upload the archetypes in a second, so that you find stat lines for me and tell me what I need to farm in terms of armor archetype and masterwork."[/i] . I then proceeded to upload a screenshot of all of the armor archetypes. After this I hit it with the following prompt- [i]"Okay, now show me what archetypes and randomized tertiary combinations, in addition to masterworks and the +50 armor mod bonuses I need in order to achieve 200 grenade, 100 super, and as high as weapons as possible."[/i] . Chat proceeded to give me the exact breakdown to a T regarding what Archetype, the randomized tertiary, and the randomized masterwork. The breakdown was as follows- [b]Armor Breakdown-[/b] [i]- x2 Powerhouse; Tertiary Grenade, Weapons MW - x2 Grenadier, Tertiary Weapons, Grenade MW - x1 Grenadier; Tertiary Weapons, MW Weapons[/i] [b]200 Grenade; 100 Super; 150 Weapons[/b] Phenomenal for those looking to min/max. Feel free to bookmark this and utilize the same prompts! Just plug and play the second prompt I gave regarding your desired stats!

    • Just for your information, you inverted the secondary (20) and the tiertiary (25).

    • I just did the math in my head🤷🏼‍♂️ 5(30+10)=200 5(25+5)=150 5(20)=100

        • Not sure if this forum will let me post this link but what you are doing is really unnecessary. [url=https://d2-armor-calc-lac.vercel.app/]d2-armor-calc-lac.vercel.app[/url] There's no need to use an LLM for things that a computer can easily calculate

Edit : Like 2 Powerhouse and 3 Grenadier is already up to 125 Super

          • wow, what fun. *yawn*....sorry, ignore that. why not just play to have fun? those that buildcraft to that degree don't care what chatgpt says. as far as i know, chatgpt doesn't actually play the game. and the only way chatgpt can give any helpful advice is by feeding it enough data for it to learn from. and let's face it, your initial prompt is a single users input for it to learn from. therefore, skill, playstyle, etc don't get factored in. just numbers to reach the desired stats you want to achieve. hence, it's borderline useless.

          • I just watch Mactics videos. He tells me what I need. Streamers tell me everything. I believe everything they tell me. As it was, as it is, as it will be. According to the prophecy.

              Lol I made a spreadsheet that does the same thing but also includes things like subclass bonuses, mods, and tuning mods. (Back before the season started - now I pretty much know what I need) Don't forget about the subclass stat bonuses or the T5 tuning mods! Also, for those saying to "just use ArmorPicker", they are missing the point! The point is that you can only focus 1 type of armor at a time (Bulwark, etc.), so you need to know which option to focus that best suits the buikd you are planning.
