Hi Maplers~ so my end goal is to make full hp washed nl who can piss on all the bosses. since its not that easy i started with a dk, to make some money. I didn't hp wash him cause its not gonna be my main so im not in the tryhard mood, will i be able to fight ht someday? [i have 10k hp with hb at lvl 100] and about nl, make him PURE INT and leech him from lvl 10 to make the wash faster will be able or it will be pain in the ass to lvl him? how many lvls i need for 18K hp with full int? Thank you
Leveling a full int NL without your own bishop would be incredibly difficult. For that much hp you might be looking at leeching until around 130-140 and it would cost you billions in leech money. Not to mention finding bishops willing to leech you in low level areas won't be easy. With anyone who plans to extreme wash, I would highly recommend ditching the dk as a mule character and making your own bishop.
If you don't have 30k HP with HB, it'll be difficult to Zerk at HT. With 30k HP and Zerk 30, you need to keep at or below 12k HP to maximize your DPS. Wings will hit you for 9.1k damage, so at the minimum, you need 22,750 HP with HB. If you want to make money, you should make a bishop. Selling leech (low level leech at 45m-40m per hour, 1 hit skele leech at 65m-60m per hour), farming gobies (in pure meso and NPCed equips alone: 45m per hour without SI, 80m per hour with SI), and bossing (Zak with Zhelm buyers and Gen 20, HT with books and the occasional HTP buyer, although requires practice) will get you very funded. With a bishop, you can leech yourself, but I recommend buying low level bishop leech if you're at or above level 150. In my experience, it was easy finding a new bishop who would leech me wherever I requested when I offered 45m per hour. I'd buy leech up to level 108 for skeles, although 1 hit petri leech is faster than 1 hit skele leech. From there, leech yourself, especially if you 1 hit. If you're okay with getting your funding through leech selling and more limited farming, you can make an IL or FP since AMs have cheaper skillbooks than bishops, but this route requires you to make an HS mule and learn how to dual client. However, I suggest making a bishop over an AM because bishops have the greatest profitability and utility. If you're not going to wash your DrK to 30k HP, I'd quit it and focus on your mage since even if you get your DrK to go HT, you won't be taken as often as you might think. At endgame, most HT runs have people who don't need HB. However, people always need SE, so if you want to boss often and make fast connections with the bossing community, make a BM or MM. There's a slight preference towards BM, but essentially, SE is the only thing that matters. Attacker slots on boss runs, at least HT, are competitive. But no one cares too much about the SE's range. You just have to be a reliable SE mule with 9.1k HP and spam hurricane as a BM or strafe and snipe as an MM. You can connect with people by getting involved in bossing as a bishop, but there's a certain elitism that comes with bishoping at HT, not so much Zak. You'll need experience before you're taken, but if you're willing to dedicate time and money on a bishop, HT is about 50m more profitable since you don't have to use stoppers or apples. I don't know how many washes you need for your NL, but you can do the math yourself. The funding is all very doable, however many AP Resets you'll need.
