How to use it

Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try base wild against max wild to see the 4096 to 512 eightfold gap. The result line prints the equality plus the per unit ratio. Click a table row to load that entry as Entry A with amount 1. Lower denominators mean better odds.

A disputed 30 plus sandwich Charm row at 585 versus 587 across guides is left out as unreconciled. Sandwich bonuses skip eggs and raids and stay noted as wild only. Rounded integers like 683 and 1365 stand for 682.6 and 1365.67 with exact fractions in context. Omitted: raid event odds, which use separate den tables.
