Analysed: Price of Weapons to Damage Ratio
Hello fellow soldiers,
There has been one thing that has been bothering me for a while and this question is: Is it more cost efficient to buy alot of cheap weapons then to buy a few expensive weapons? I will attemot to determine this in my article.
*Note: All strength and damage figures are based of my strength but the ratio should be proportional to your strength and should apply to you to. Also this guide is for those who tank. Meaning that they buy 1 wellness pack after every battle, thus keeping their wellness at 100.
First of lets see how many weapons we can buy with 10 gold. (using average prices, found using erepublik.ws):
Q5=9
Q4=12
Q3=19
Q2=33
Q1=66
Obliviously, less quality means more weapons. But It also means youll be spending more gold on wellness pack.
Now with 100 HP I can do the following damage: Q5=250, Q4=220, Q3=200, Q2=175, Q1=147.
We can thus see how much damage I can get from 10 golds worth of:
Q5 weapons: 9x250=2250
Q4 weapons: 12x220=2640
Q3 weapons: 19x200=3800
Q2 weapons: 33x175=5775
Q1 weapons: 66x147=9702
Now we must find the total cost of gold spent which means including the wellness packs used. This is the formula I used for gold spent: Total Costs=(No of weapons*2 gold)+10 golds of weapons
Therefore; . Total Cost: Total Damage:
Q5= 25g 2250
Q4= 32g 2640
Q3= 46g 3800
Q2= 74g 5775
Q1= 140g 9702
Now we find the damage per gold ratio of the above:
<strong> For Q5: 1gold/90 DMG
For Q4: 1gold/82.5 DMG
For Q3: 1gold/82.6 DMG
For Q2: 1gold/78 DMG
For Q1: 1gold/69.3 DMG</strong>
There for as you can see, buying more expensive weapons in the fist place actually reduces the total cost in the long run. And therefore it is more cost effective to buy fewer more expensive weapons then alot more cheap weapons.
Hope you liked it

That's only for the first fight (and subsequent ones if you are tanking with wellness boxes). However, look at this calculation:
At my level starting at 100 wellness I will do 54 in my first fight with a Q5 weapon, and then weaponless for four more fights I will do 48 for a total of 102.
Fighting twice with a Q1 I do 63 in the first two fights and then 34 in the subsequent ones. That's one more total damage for substantially cheaper.
With 10 gold, the numbers seem a little off. You can buy about 14 or 15 Q4 weapons with 10 gold, and about 25 for Q3s. The prices on .ws aren't exactly accurate, and you wouldn't pay average price, obviously you'd look for the cheapest prices.

So it could be reworked a little. I've always found that Q4 weapons have the best value, personally.

Ah I wrote up a big article expressing my own findings, and I didn't even read to see that you included the cost of wellness packs in this. oops
Yes, good article! haha

I believe someone did a pretty good damage calculator for us a while back.

@Mewto555
I noted in the first place that that was using wellness packs everytime.
@All
I used erepublik.ws for damage calc and for product prices.
Texas Industries Armaments for all your weapon needs.
at least now I think about it!! thank you Dear Sardar :x
If you dont tank (buy wellness packs) it is a hell of a lot better+cheaper to buy Q1 though!
Yeah that's correct, for a majority of players who aren't tanks, buying Q1s is far cheaper
so usefull
thanks bro
tnx

nice dude
hey, good article, but if you are poor (me) it is only possible to use no weapon.
didn't you forget to include that the hospital gives "10 free gold"?
perhaps that makes Q5 weapons even better.
