Here are the stats of the different crusaders' upgrades. The purpose of this information is to aid players in building more powerful DPS formations.

  • Although gear and enchantments affect bonuses, those differ for everyone. Therefore, it is not included. Players will have to factor that in themselves.
  • These numbers assume that upgrades stack in a multiplicative manner (which they should).
  • Certain upgrades require special conditions (like "no one in front") this list assumes all special conditions are met and factors in said DPS bonuses accordingly. Crusaders that require special upgrades will have an (*) by their stats and the requirement displayed.
  • There are three lists, one for upgrades that only affect the single crusader (the Self DPS Bonuses List), one list for upgrades that affect other crusaders (the Affects Others DPS Bonuses List), and one that lists the base idle DPS of the crusaders (the Base DPS List.

If you notice any errors please notify me in the comments with the correction and I will try to fix the list.

(Current as of version 0.38)

phoenix and sarah dont have any team dps bonuses, but reginald does

and maybe you should compare base dps based on their dps gained per money spent

@Killerofcows
Nice job spotting that. I've made the change and I've added a special thanks list, which you are now on. :]

I don't know if I could pull that equation and I don't know where to go (maybe the wiki?), to find the equation for cost of leveling the individual crusaders. But, it would definitely be the most helpful option.

Here I was hoping that these values would cut out some of the work for anyone trying to factor gear and enchantments in. Players at least no longer have to individually multiple the upgrades together to find that amount. You can just factor the gear and enchantments right into the numbers found here. (I couldn't find these numbers anywhere (except the Base DPS), there may be a spot somewhere on the wiki or the main games forums, but even if so, a little redundancy can help make things easier to find.)

@abe10
I want to say a couple hours. I used excel and the mathematics behind it ends up being pretty simple, although I had to double check myself in the game comments to see if I had it right (thanks to those who helped me :] ).

Nice work! Do you want me to add your list to the OP? Obviously, I will put your credit next to the list title (as in Equipment perks: (By: FishPreferred))

Could also note that each of the equipment types have a certain % bonus to them e.g. all base DPS items go from 25%(common) to 200%(epic) and all global DPS items go from 5%->20%. Don't know about gold bonus(guessing 10->100 but idk myself) nor the other ones, but at least for the DPS charts you made you could factor that in or list the item bonus ranges on the bottom(unless it's already on the wiki).
Bit irrelevant and rather minor, but in your initial post there are just a few grammar/spelling errors...
-1st bullet that you made: "Although gear and enchantmentsaffect bonuses"
-2nd bullet in parentheses: "which they should"
-3rd bullet: "(like 'no one in front'); this" and "all the criteria for each of that crusader's upgrades" This is assuming you only met a singular, generic crusader; otherwise just making "crusaders" possessive is fine. Could reword entirely and say "all the criteria for each of those upgrades" since the type of upgrades(crusader ones) is assumed.
-4th bullet: could replace the first comma with a colon, but don't think that matters all that much.
-line after 4th bullet: "and I will try to fix the list"
-Self DPS List, Bushwhacker: "The Bush Whacker's upgrades"
-Same list, Natalie Dragon: "that requires Nate Dragon to be(or just omit "be" since it's assumed) in the formation" ---Similar issue with Nate Dragon and Jim the Lumberjack in the same list
-2nd section of the global DPS list: "The following crusaders have no upgrades that affect the DPS of other crusaders."
Small things, but hope it helps. Felt a little better correcting it tbh since you did correct the devs about when to use "a" and "an" :P.

Thank you, you are in the special thanks list now! :]
I had a feeling you might have posted because of my comment lol

I purposefully omitted the "to" to save space. The requirements were supposed to be short notes and not full sentences. But, they ended up rather long anyway. lol

Whatever you like.

Don't know about gold bonus(guessing 10->100 but idk myself) nor the other ones, but at least for the DPS charts you made you could factor that in or list the item bonus ranges on the bottom(unless it's already on the wiki).
It is 10% to 100%, and cooldown reduction is 1% to 4%.

The click damage ones are a bit weird, though. BW's wand adds 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% to the swordplay ability, and his sword adds exact damage values (10, 25, 50, and 100 DPC). For anything else, it's 5%, 10%, 25%, and 50% of total DPC.

It is all on the wiki, too, but whatever.

Other things of note, which may or may not be relevant:
1 All gold upgrades are multiplicative, so putting 50% on a 300% gold bonus will raise it to 450%.
2 Identical buffs stack by duration, so using Gold Boom with another Gold Boom will give you 40 minutes of +25%. Different levels of the same buff stack by magnitude, so using Gold Windfall with Gold Boom will give you 20 minutes of +56.25% and 10 minutes of +25%.
3 Buffs are only active during gameplay. If you leave while one is on, it will start where it left off when you resume. This also means they won't affect your idle gold gain.
4 The Washed Up Hermit's special bonus only requires that no one is in the spaces directly in front of him, like this:
http://i.imgur.com/tSEfO29.png
The black spaces won't affect it.

Oh cool, thanks to this work I can finally demonstrate that Hermit is better than Emo.

-Hermit's base dps = 733
-Emo's base dps = 26

Since Emo comes 2 spaces first on the list, with normalized levels:

-Hermit's dps = 733 * 48 (skills) = 35.712
-Emo's dps = 26 * 16 (50 levels) * 60 (skills) = 24.960

Plus, Emo can't benefit from Khouri's buff.

1 What algorithm are you using to normalize?
2 Aren't you neglecting the fact that Hermit can't be buffed by Sasha (which is slightly more than Khouri's 35%) without leaving at least one crusader out of the formation?

@JohnCarterFromMars

But, that fails to take into account two things.

Hermit is going to cost more to level, so Emo will receive more 4x multipliers for the same cost. (Or Emo will be a higher level than Hermit on any given level due to hero level costs.)

Hermit must have a crusader slot removed, which is one less possible buff that he will have.

But, if you can show otherwise with in-game comparison, go for it.
