Alvl on different circlets/orbs?

[ProfessionalBerg]

I tried to find some info, unsuccessfully, on this matter. Basically, I want to know how alvl is calculated based on ilvl and the type of circlet and orb? I've recently got a Ruby Jared's Stone (+36% fres) from a stash in Kurast Bazaar (arealvl 22). Ruby is alvl 25, though.

If (ilvl>99) then {x=99} else {x=ilvl}
if (qlvl>x) then {x=qlvl}
if (magic_lvl>0) then {alvl=x+magic_lvl}
else
{
if (x<(99-qlvl/2))
then {alvl=x-qlvl/2}
else {alvl=2*x-99}
}
If (alvl>99) then {alvl=99}

Depending on the qlvl of the orb it is very well possible. Also, I believe mlvl and area level are not directly correlated in Normal as they are in NM and Hell.

So, basically, circlets will have an alvl=ilvl+3, and a minimum of 27 (qlvl+3)?

What about coronets, tiaras and diadems?

Yes and you can find this information for all items on the AS.

I'm better off making a MATLAB script...

I'm using it. However, it does not take into account qlvl/magic_lvl. I made a script that can calculate affixlvl for an item based on ilvl, qlvl and magic_lvl:

For example, it calculated an alvl for a heavy glove (qlvl=7) of ilvl 20 (vendor act 2 max ilvl) to 16.5. I dunno if it's the correct calculation, but it seems to be. Leather gloves of ilvl 20 have an alvl 18.5, just enough for a single 30% resist affix (which jiansonz mentions in his super-awesome guide to untwinked single-pass MF), and an alvl 16.5 just allows for the "of Luck" suffix, so it is OK here too.

Where did you get that script, by the way?

It does do that, actually.

It comes up in multiple threads around here. It can be found in the item generation tutorial for example.

It does do that, actuully.

DOH! I had No-Script (Firefox addon) blocking ingame.de! That's why the drop-down menu at the bottom was inactive!
