I started playing Royals about a month ago and never cared to think about looking into HP washing, but now at level 84, my DK only has 3700 HP (just under 6000 with HB) and 729MP, and I feel my HP is fairly low and I don't see a rising trend of it increasing, staying around an increase of 30-33 per level up. I have started to grasp the basics of HP washing and plan on leveling up my base INT to maybe 50 or 60 (Can't afford good INT gear, currently have +27 if i put all my current INT gear together) and start properly washing at level 94'ish, I'm hoping maybe at like 150 or 160 I can get to 18750 or close to it, does this seem possible? Also curious, does an increase of 30 hp per level/APR get better when I get to a 4th job or a higher level, or does it stay around this spot? Any tips or insight on something I might be wrong with would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
Don't worry. DK is the easiest class to wash, and you will be fine. If nothing changes, you need to add base INT to 83 to reach 18750 HP at LV155, which seems prohibitively high: However, if you aim to achieve 18750 HP at LV180 instead of LV155, only 43 base INT is needed. In this case, you will have more than enough HP to do any boss at 155, and you can eventually achieve the 18750 goal. But there is more good news. Based on information about an incoming update, your class can gain up to 4000 HP through quests, medals, and other items (dojo belts / MoNs): https://royals.ms/forum/threads/progress-update-11th-april.119134/ Getting all 4000 extra may be a bit difficult, but getting 2000 extra should be a reasonable thing to do. This means even if you want 18750 HP at LV155, you only need to wash to 16750 HP by that time. And what a coincidence, this also requires only 43 base INT: My suggestions would be adding your base INT to 43 right now. In this way, you can get 18750 HP at LV180 even without the incoming washing updates, and you can still get 18750 HP at LV155 with the incoming washing updates. Alternatively, buy some more affordable INT gear so you can reach 70 total INT with less base INT. The combination above is (43 base + 27 gear), but gears with 40 INT shouldn't be too expensive to buy. This will lower your base INT requirement to 30, make it easier for you to train, and save you 13 AP resets to wash back your INT later. INT gears are free in the long run because you can resell after you are done with them. Source of the calculator I used: https://royals.ms/forum/threads/hp-washing-calculator.111127/
The procedure of washing is also very simple. You add base INT from now on until you reach the target base INT. Every time at 99% exp you wear your INT gears to level up. At LV135, you can reset all of your base INT and stop wearing INT gears when leveling up, which is convenient because that's when start bossing (Zak / Krex). After that point, whenever you have AP resets (from voting or bought with mesos), you use it to -MP + HP. One small tricky thing: the system won't let you -MP if you haven't added AP to HP or MP before. This constraint is placed to prevent people from getting arbitrarily high stats by reducing HP/HP. To circumvent this constraint, first add 1 AP to HP or MP. You only need to do this 1 time in the entire washing process. Then AP reset will let you -MP +HP. After you finish the entire washing, you use another AP reset to -MP +stat, so you get that single stat back. Feel free to ask me if you have more questions
I forgot about the upcoming update, thanks a lot for the response, ill try to follow this going forward
Wait, there is something more that I need to check. I haven't played a DK so I don't know much about the class. However, shiyui's calculator says DK should have a natural HP of around 5470 at LV84, and that DK should gain around 65 HP per level. And 3700 HP at LV84 seems strangely low. Just in case, have you maxed Improved maxHP Increase in 1st job? And any DK players can confirm the numbers above?
Wow I just realized i completely forgot about that skill the entire game... I thought 3700 seemed way too low. do 1st job SP resets work in mapleroyals?
Yeah they should work here. So you should stop leveling now, save enough NX to wash your 1st job SP, and then continue with what I said. Thankfully, shiyui's calculator uses your current clean HP instead of natural HP, so no changes need to be done in the plans above. The fact that you are missing out 2000+ HP and can still finish washing without much difficulty shows how easy it is to wash a DK, LOL
I've been hoarding NX for washing, I can reset that to max right now, I'm in shock that I never catched that.. thanks for saving my ass lmao
I can't math everything out but just take note that the SP reset doesn't account for the levels that you've missed out on maxHP increase. It's something like 70 levels x 40 hp per level.
Yeah, I think the washing will be 40-50 AP resets (680M-850M) more expensive due to the missed out HP. It is your call to decide whether or not to keep going with this char and spend those extra resets, or start a new char with lower washing costs. If it were me, I would stick to this char, since re-training to 84 actually takes quite some time, and to me the time is worth more than 800M XD
