BM is fine. Salaries only update once per season, so that's why they're inaccurate sometimes. Potentials have sublevels just like skills, so for example some MVPs are really close to legends. Also some people train over the cap even if it's slow

Other tool that has it is buzzeriq.com, but it's currently down

We are about to experience salary/potential changes as well, so who knows if or how we'll be able to calculate it

That's not the problem. When you check 34yo player there is no chance that he poped like 7-8 points over one season - and that's the difference beetwen 100% and 99%-100% cap.

I also doubt that you can make 8 points over the cap, couse when you reach it, training slows down like 3 times (from what people say) and player is also over 29 yo in most cases.

The gap is to big, the toool is not accurate at all.

Hi!

Just to be sure, did you check the potential from individual pages or from a page displaying 10 players from the market? In the latter case, the BM userscript indeed indicates 100% cap for every player but if you click on the players one by one the potential estimation is different. Anyways I agree that the formula needs a small update and the SB modification will make things worse haha

I really have a hard time believing buzzer manager is right, when I see the requirements for national team players with like 140 TSP+ and a MVP center caps at 90 TSP in bad cases.

Because cap isn't based on total skill points, but on formulas where skills have different value

Mvps can cap at 100 and they can at 140 as well, it all depends on distribution of skills

Hi!
Well I'm not sure your example shows BM is wrong. First, cap is not based on TSP at all but on skill distribution so I don't really get your point. Second, potential has hidden decimals so when you see an MVP it can be a 9.01 potential or a 9.99 potential. The second has more room before reaching the cap, but how would you or BM know that?

If I look at the NT skills requirements for Austrias national team, I have a hard time believing those players are possible when their core skills exceed the cap level for most potential levels including MVP.

But it's not really the case. Fact taht you use it, and that there is no better option doesn't mean taht it is a good tool. I was simply asking if there is an better option, becouse I belive BM is not good any more.

There probably won't be a better tool, as this game has only about 50 users on average per country...
