The spreadsheet shows some key aspects of AT game mechanics, including the probability of a hit, the probability of a critical hit, the probability of finding extraordinary or legendary items (with MF skill), and how to calculate the average damage per round based on other stats.

Edit: Added a tab to show amount of XP needed for level-ups.

1. Heavy weapons (1 attack per round) are better against monsters with high damage resistance, because you take the DR penalty only once per round.
2. Light weapons (many attacks per round) are better against swarms, because you can eliminate multiple monsters in a single round.

Facing a swarm with high DR? RUN!

Slow weapons like a great axe have a high modifier, fast weapons like daggers have almost no modifier (about 100%).

That way the big but slow weapons got equally good in comparison to fast weapons.
