Bowman PB HP washing calculation

Hey guys,

I want to be prepared if Pink Bean comes out & I want to see if its too late to be prepared =).
But I also like math, so I don't want someone to do the calculation for me. I just need a few pieces of information to enable me to do the calculation

1. What is the average natural HP gain per level for bowman?
2. Can you gain Washable MP/level without base INT? i.e. with 4 base int, can you wash at some point?

I'm a lvl 131 MM with 50 base int. Its going to be expensive no matter what I do but fortunately MM dmg don't receive huge upticks in dps with ATT/DEX due to the majority of our dps coming from snipe.

I appreciate the help, guys. After I get the answers above I'll post my math here!!

 

1. 16-20
2. Supposedly, no. I have heard of some people having a few washes, but nothing game changing.

You will have to rewash if you want to futureproof for PB. Unless you had like 200 int in equips, you're much too late to hit 11500 hp. (That's the hp needed to survive PB with HB)

 

I do not believe that is true. I'd have to be a stupidly rich to do this (and I think I'm going to try) but I believe that if I AP reset 100 DEX into INT, I can actually make it to PB tier HP at level 175 by double washing every level from 131 to 162 (then more lvls after if I felt the need). Then the natural MP gain, how much I've already washed + my 50 int gear / lvl would enable me to HP wash enough to get to 11,500 HP at level 175.

I'm estimating that it will cost me roughly 5 billion mesos to do it, so I haven't decided if I want to. I really wanna PB if he comes out but at the same time, I don't like the idea of reducing my MMs damage by roughly 20 attack for roughly 31 levels (especially the prime bossing lvls) but I believe its not such a huge deal for MM because of snipe making up the majority of our DPS.

I also don't believe its worth the ~1.5b mesos I'd save by remaking my MM as I don't believe I can make a char to 131 in about the 20 hours I can make that money back selling leech with my A/M & HS mule.

Does anyone want to challenge my statements? I would love to hear additional opinions!! Thanks :3

 

There hasn't even been confirmation that we will get PB. Other than that, MM's aren't really high dmg outputters, so I don't think it would matter if you reset dex or not.
