GrimTools vs Last Epoch Planner

GrimTools is a free web resource for creating and sharing character builds for Grim Dawn. Its calculator displays attributes, combat statistics, resistances, equipment, and combined item statistics. Users can select items, prefixes, suffixes, components, and augments, then upload a completed build for a shareable link or load a character save for further editing. Options cover the Base Game and mods including Diablo 3 Classes and Reign Of Terror. The site also provides an item database for searching game items and affixes and a skill tree planner. An offline desktop edition includes the online calculator’s functionality plus build-list management. GrimTools works in modern browsers and has a Windows version; Internet Explorer versions below 11 are unsupported. Save uploads do not support character saves from mods. The calculator notes that dual-wield ranged attacks-per-second values are higher than in game because it uses a different formula. GrimTools is created by Dammitt and is not affiliated with Crate Entertainment.

Last Epoch Planner is a free, open-source build planner for the game Last Epoch, available in a browser and as a desktop application. Players can map the passive tree, choose up to five skills, and allocate points in their skill trees. Items can be imported, crafted, or modified, with support for Rare, Exalted, Unique, Legendary, Set, and Idol items. The planner tracks stats and calculates DPS for several skills, chances to inflict ailments, and debuff effects. Builds can be shared through lastepochplanner.com URLs, and the changelog documents online imports through the Last Epoch Tools API. The desktop app can import offline characters and builds from Last Epoch Tools; offline character import is not available in the browser version. The project is MIT-licensed. Its README cautions that many stats and affixes do not work correctly, and that recognizing a modifier does not guarantee the calculation will behave as expected. The desktop version runs on Linux through Wine; native Linux support may come later.
