Interesting, but I have a few questions here. How would the program get a list of your artifacts and how would this be different from just sorting through the artifact filtering system we currently have in game? 

Not really sure I understand 100% but I'd still love to see this! :)

Sure would love to play with something like that. let me know when you have it completed.

I am not advanced enough to generate a file with the details of all the artifacts we have in our inventory, I'm not even sure if it is possible or legal to use a script that sneaks in the data directly from the game.

However the purpose of this program would be to help you when you have like 15, 20, 30 or even more  really good pieces of gear and you are hesitating about what piece combination to equip in order to maximize your total stats, while still being above the minimum required for a specific content (like 3.5k defense 191 speed and around 220 accuracy for CB for example).

Then you don't need to bring all your inventory but only the few pieces that you know they have potential.

For now I just fill a text file with all the items stats line by line like this :

HP, ATQ, DEF, SPEED, CRIT R, CRIT D, RES, ACC

It is still a prototype not ready at all for the use by someone who is not familiar with the program. In fact I still need to calculate myself the total amount of each stats because of the % stat which depends on the champion's basestats. Moreover I need to print zeros when the substats do not give a particular stat.

But there is no doubt that I will soon enable the program to do all of this itself so that it would be clear for the user.

When you're gearing up a champion with the filtering system in game, you proceed piece after piece, like accessories first, then middle row and finally top row. For example you look for the best pieces you have for the banner then you go for necklace and do the same, etc ...

But nothing tells you that when you reach helmet, there were better boots with substats that complete better with a particular helmet. And this is true for any artifact, you are probably missing a better combination everytime you proceed like this

This is when the program is usefull, it will give you all the combination of 9 artifacts with a totalstat that exceeds the minimum totalstat you precised at the begining, and let you make your choice with them.
