Krosigrim Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I lost alot of my math prowess... even though, this SHOULD be simple for me. But nooooo for easy example starting from 100 and an increment of 100. 1002003004005006007008009001000---------5500 if I start from 100, and every time it increases by 100, a total of 10 times = 5500 ... how can I calculate this quickly?

solidius23 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 will what the fuck are u talking about lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_cinder Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 will what the fuck are u talking about lol I second that...you made no sense. You need to start at 100, increment by 100 and wind up with 5500 in only 10 steps? Impossible...there has to be more to the equation than that.

Krosigrim Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 ... If you start from 100, and add 100 every time, the increment of increase is 100. Im trying to figure this out for leveling purposes. Incremental increase of 100 lvl 2 100xp neededlvl 3 200xp neededlvl 4 300xp neededlvl 5 400xp neededlvl 6 500xp neededlvl 7 600xp neededlvl 8 700xp neededlvl 9 800xp neededlvl 10 900xp neededlvl 11 1000xp needed A total of 5500xp is needed to hit lvl 11 in my example. How can I quickly calculate incremental increase? You could take 100 and add 100 over and over, then add each of the dividends and add them together to get the final answer, but there should be a formula to calculate this.

ken_cinder Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Really? For serious? Multiple of 10...or this case, 100? FIFTY FREAKIN FIVE! lol Like what? Grade 1 math? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krosigrim Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 Your not helping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_cinder Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Your not helping Neither are you...I'm lost, you not give enough info. Are you wanting to know the TOTAL XP needed across all of those levels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krosigrim Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 Yes. if I need 10 levels, and the xp necessary increases by the same # each time, How do I calculate the needed Xp considering the incremental increase? It doesnt matter, I can always do it the long way... but it bothering me... I want to know how to do it quickly and I cant find the solution To hell with it, I gotta get back to it. Perhaps I'll see if anyone knows later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_cinder Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 54000 I'm assuming lvl 2 requires 4500 XP? The easy solution is 5500 x 10 - 1000 (10 levels compounded, 10 levels at 100 increments) I think...I did it manually per level and it worked out. It's late and I'm tired though.

Skythe Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Are you trying to figure out a fast way to level the weapons in FF13? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
someboddy Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 The formula is:(2*a+(n-1)*d)*n/2Where:a is the first itemn is the number of itemsd is the increasment. Don't be afraid - math is a friend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
