Are you using a brute-force calculation, or is there a more mathematical way to handle the permutations?
I’ve been trying to figure out a good way to handle the complexity for ages!
Well it took me a few month and I had to start from scratch two times.
What I did in the beginning was gettin all permutations (5040) and insert them in a column. Then I used the MID() function to get every number in 7 seperated columns for each row. That way i got kick off for the rest which took me around 4 month to finish it.
The most trouble I had was with the pics. I had to let me create the macro which you see above and had to add comments which are hidden in the A column.
There are still a few things that have to be done manually i.e. mark the vaiable permutations for each faction, but thats kinda easy and just takes a like an hour for each faction. Visible from column BU:FE (left some space there for upcomin factions).
If you are more interested in that monster, you can also fade in the columns H:FE and the rows 30:5041 to see everything. Just be aware of that every function is in german.

Hi @CaptainAwesome,
Thanks for putting so much time in your spreadsheet and sharing that here!
Im real interesting in it but must look if I can use it with my visual disorder and its in German as I understand you right.
Now mI delving with highest multipliers theory.
Tomorrow Im gonna take a better look on your project!
It’s in every ingame language
Mostly translated by using an online translator
Just the functions.
I used the german wording coz my settings are in german and that sheet is complicated enough so I didnt wanna translate every function when there is no need to do that
Hi @CaptainAwesome,
I can understand you kept the German language in your sheet for sure if its complicated by itself the language will not be a problem for me Im not unknown with German and otherwise there are enough language tools to understand every language you want
I will look at it for sure, and hopefully it will help me by delving!
Have a great weekend!
Maybe you overread the point where I said it’s in every ingame language.
You can select between english, german, spanish, french, italian, russian and chinese.
Updates for All-Seeing Eye#2 will follow the upcoming week probably

-added All-Seeing Eye 2
be aware of the notification in the explanation for All-Seeing Eye 1 & 2
This is admirable work but i am a little surprised that people approach delves in this way. I don’t really look at the multipliers at all; I look at the teams. If I am running an AoE deck like QB or tesla then I will leave the tidal room as late as I can, and the same goes for Bulette or Cedric to avoid reshuffle. Rewards for me are irrelevant; I just want the latest rendition of delve done and dusted ASAP, never to be repeated even when the 5th troop lands during deep delve. I will just open portals when it lands and ascend occasionally with an orb. I admire your dedication but my idea of a “perfelt delve” is the one that takes as little time as possible. The rewards don’t even register.
I wouldn’t have created this calculator if I wouldn’t be “in this way”
I just wanted to give me the opportunity to get everything be done perfectly. And I wanted to share it with the community.
Everyone has his own playtstyle. So it’s up to you to use it or not.
And besides I’m some kind of a perfectionist

Kudos! I have my own full permutation delve tool I wrote some time back, but it wouldn’t have occurred to me to try putting it in Excel. Recursion in VBA… brrrr.
You could probably save some time by pre-computing valid paths for a given faction. Any 9-room faction has a full permutation set of 5,040 paths excluding start/end rooms, as you mentioned, but Obsidian Depths for example only has 10 valid path permutations. Granted, that won’t save you anything in a wide-open delve like City of Thieves, but most are more constrained than that.
Don’t you think I’m already aware of this and coded my OO Calc sheet in that way?
Some factions like obsidian depths are probably not worth the effort, but for others it comes in handy
And saving time by “pre-computing valid paths for a given faction” is quiet complicate if you have no idea how it will look like in advance. Or do you want me to make a whole sheet for every single faction if it can be provided by one sheet?

Thank Cap for your hard work. I use your code but it say same error
Do I need to do anything or just use as normally?
Thank you
