The
Equipment & Max Hit Calculator is a new tool available on our website for finding the best equipment to use within RuneScape. It is the first of many utilities to come using data collected by the Content Crew. At the moment there are over 2500 equipment items that will appear in the drop downs to select from. We can't call the lists completely done yet but we believe we have complete info for all nearly all items that give stats and are mostly only missing cosmetic items or harder to get items that we will continue to add.
Special thanks to Davo, Jasonmrc, Jay, Shwa, and Warren for the
massive amount of time they put in collecting information for the item database that this utility pulls from. Past Content Crew members and members of the community are also deserving of a mention in collecting information for some items. Full item credits can be found along with the other individual item information on the calculator.
If anyone notices anything we are missing (and has the correct data themselves) from the equipment calculator or notices any problems, please post on this thread and we will have it fixed or added. In the future, we will have a better solution for submitting corrections.
Along with this release, we are removing the Items, NPCs, and Dungeon maps forums and changing the category to be called Community Guides. Any data in these forums has already been used or will be used for coming content on the site, and these forums were not very useful to anyone. Rules on the remaining forums have been relaxed to follow existing community rules.
The next utility release can be expected within the next couple months as we our accelerating our releases now that we have a big foundation to draw from. At some point in the future, we will also be taking applications for content crew volunteers since the amount of work is quite tough for such a small team. Jagex's new website and wiki will not affect the plans for our site.
