This tool is designed to allow players of all skills to speed tune offenses and defenses. The goal of this guide is to help players understand the various functions.
What is a speed tick?
Summoners War is a turn based game. Which monster gets a turn next is determined by their Attack Speeds and Attack Bars. The in-game help tells us:
"The order of attack on the battlefield is determined by how high the Attack Bar is.
Increasing the Attack Speed will fill up the Attack Bar faster, enabling you to gain turns more frequently.
In the beginning of the battle, the Monster with the highest Attack Speed in the battlefield will take the first turn of the battle."
A single unit of time is called a tick (like a clock).
Monsters Tab:
This is the main tab where you will add up to 30 monsters (15 blue and 15 red), set speed totems/leads, the attack bar per tick and select a sort by. Each monster will have the following options:
Under the total speed line on each monster you will see 3 different blocks. The center block is the attack speed of the monster, based on runes, sky totem and speed leader. The right block is the attack speed of the monster with a speed buff (this takes into consideration artifact speed buff +%). The left block is the attack speed of the monster with a speed debuff.
Advanced Tab:
This tab is used for a few different functions:
Turn Order Tab:
The turn order tab shows you the first turn and then each tick there after. This allows you to quickly and easily see turn order as well as gaps where you could get cut.
Tick View Tab:
This tab shows you the turn order similar to Summoners War Lost Centuria. It's a simplified view of the advanced tab where each unit is shown once per tick with a simple attack bar amount. When a monster takes a turn they will be highlighted (GREEN or RED based on team). Once a monster takes a turn it will be placed into the proper spot for it's next turn (could be the end of the line or skip in front of another monster).
Saves Tab:
This tab allows SWGT Personal, SWGT Personal+, SWGT Guild and SWGT Guild+ users to save the current configuration with a title and notes.
YouTube Video Button:
This button will take you to the SWGT YouTube channel that showcases this feature.
Clear All button in top right corner:
This will clear all settings and reset to empty.
Special Cases:
PVE Content:
At the bottom of the monster dropdown I have included speed tunings for some popular PVE content (ex: Giants, Dragons, Necro, etc.). A special thanks to Seiishizo for providing the specific data required to set this up.
Performance:
It should be noted that the performance of this Speed Tick Bracket Calculator tool is based on your browser and computer performance. Other than the save feature, there is no server interaction with this tool. As such, performance may vary depending on large number of monsters, applying attack bar boost, speed modifier and/or additional speed to all monsters for all ticks 0-70. A worst case scenario test was made on a a 4-core low watt CPU. This test was applying 30% attack bar boost for 15 blue monsters for all 1-70 ticks. This test was able to apply the operation in under 1/2 second.
