DofusClassSelector, a ladder analysis for Dofus
Scraping bot to find the least-played classes in the Dofus Kolizéum ladder.
The project
Getting back into the MMORPG Dofus, I had to pick my class. Instead of going with a popular one, I wanted to play a class that’s rarely represented among the best players. A slightly counter-intuitive choice, sure, but it makes progression more fun, mostly because every matchup is less repetitive.
So I built a bot that scrapes the Kolizéum ladder (the top solo players ranking) and analyzes class distribution to identify the rarest ones.
Takeaways
This was my first contact with web scraping and tabular data handling. A genuinely formative experience that made me want to keep going on data. Directly triggered several later projects.
Context
Personal project, done out of curiosity and for a practical use.
