What we shipped
Weapon AR: whole v1.17 source ranking with paginated results
After explicitly loading the pinned community v1.17 source, you can now rank all available source variants, not just 240 matching entries. The Worker computes nominal AR for every eligible source entry, while the browser displays 100 sorted results per page; CSV exports the entire computed result. Filter Regular/Somber upgrade paths and minimum attributes separately. Existing source gaps and unsupported combinations are reported rather than guessed. This is not complete Tarnished.dev feature/data parity, current Regulation 1.17.3 certification, or enemy damage simulation.
Weapon database: source-quality filters and instant requirement reranking
Filter the bundled source weapon records by complete published +0/requirements/weight fields, incomplete or disputed fields, source conflicts and the 72 recovered research-only reference previews. Counts are generated from the exact bundled JSON, not hand-maintained. When sorting by missing one-hand attribute points, changing a character stat now refreshes the ranked list immediately. Unknown and source-disputed fields remain unavailable for numerical calculations. Field coverage does not establish accuracy for the current game patch; weapon data pages remain noindex.
Build Planner: connected weapon AR handoff and reviewed SEO release
Select a sourced weapon while allocating attributes, then carry its exact name and your current five combat attributes into the separate opt-in v1.17 reference AR calculator. Unknown affinity and upgrade settings are never guessed. The Build Planner now includes a complete original five-step leveling workflow and is the fifth route eligible for indexing on the production site. All weapon AR, database and experimental pages remain noindex until separately approved.
Weapon AR: same-input Tarnished.dev comparison
The pinned v1.17 weapon AR tool now opens the public Tarnished.dev Build Calculator with the same weapon, affinity, five attributes, reinforcement series/level and grip. Enter the displayed external AR to see an exact difference. Comparisons reset whenever the local calculation changes and are explicitly marked user-entered, not automatically externally certified. External links disclose that the chosen inputs are sent in the URL.
Armor optimizer: exclude a piece and instantly rerank
In the manual CSV armor research tool, you can now exclude individual head, chest, glove or leg pieces directly from any ranked combination. The exact solver reruns immediately; undo or clear exclusions without changing your input. Added independent exhaustive-search comparison tests. The supplied example remains fictional and no current-game armor accuracy is claimed.
New one-click Weapon AR Calculator
Added a dedicated, mobile-friendly calculator for real weapons, exact affinities, reinforcement levels, five combat stats and one-/two-handed nominal Attack Rating. Public v1.17 parameters load only after a user click; no login, paid API or game installation is needed.
15 / 15 Tarnished.dev v1.17 AR reference comparisons matched
Captured same-input results in independent Chromium runs and reproduced them with our own calculation engine. Coverage includes six weapon families, Standard/Keen/Heavy/Quality affinities, +0/+12/+25, two-handed scaling and a DLC weapon. This is representative v1.17 reference validation, not a claim of current Regulation 1.17.3 client certification.
Expanded the weapon database to 487 entries
Reconciled 72 previously missing v1.17 armaments and added clearly labelled source-only previews and third-party reference attribution. Unresolved attack, weight and scaling values are not silently promoted into exact calculators.
Made disputed source data visible
Added a transparent evidence queue for 20 unresolved source fields across 17 weapons, distinguishing published reference numbers from data actually verified against a running game client.

We watch changes. We do not copy claims.
We monitor the publicly published Recent Updates section and version label on Tarnished.dev twice a day through a free GitHub Actions workflow. A detected change creates a GitHub review issue. The system may also prepare and safely merge a strictly JSON-only update to the external watch status above after local checks; it never automatically changes our calculator code, game data or first-party release notes.

Only merged, tested Build Lab features appear in this changelog.
The current official game App 1.17.2 / Regulation 1.17.3 is distinct from the pinned public v1.17 reference source used by the optional weapon AR calculator. A competitor's update notice is a research signal, not authoritative proof of numerical correctness.
