Chaos Upgrade Calculator

The Chaos Upgrade Calculator estimates material and ALZ costs for Chaos upgrades. Select the item and upgrade range, then enter server prices to compare safeguards with Upgrade Points.
How to Use This Calculator:

Pick your chaos item type and start/target levels, then (optional) enter prices for Chaos Cores, Chaos Safeguards, and Upgrade Points so the optimizer can compare costs. Specific safeguards are tied to the item type and usually require higher quantities per attempt; generic safeguards work on any chaos item and always use 1 per attempt. For belts, arcanas, and carnelians, safeguards work from +1 to +14 (no downgrade or destruction), and are disabled from +15 onward with a floor at +15. Earrings, amulets, and bracelets stop at +15; safeguards protect attempts from +1 through +14, and an unsafeguarded failed attempt destroys the item. In the Upgrade Points Cost section, enter the cost for a points amount (e.g., 1,000 points). The optimizer will only recommend upgrade point amounts in multiples of that points amount (1,000, 2,000, 3,000, etc.).

Safeguard SettingsChoose safeguard mode and set its price. Specific uses item-specific quantities, Generic uses one safeguard per attempt.

Upgrade Points CostSet the Alz cost for a given amount of Upgrade Points (for example, 1,000 points).
Cost (Alz)
Points Amount
Initial Item CostOne-time price for the base item you start upgrading (for example your belt or carnelian).
Added once to total cost
Max Upgrade PointsMaximum upgrade points allowed on a single attempt. Larger values allow more options but increase compute time.
Upper Bound Confidence (%)Percentile for upper-bound summaries. Example: 90 means there is a 90% chance totals are this value or lower.
SimulationsNumber of Monte Carlo runs used for upper-bound estimates. More simulations improve stability but increase calculation time.
Min 1,000. Higher values are more stable but slower.
