Hi, I've never really done heavy HP washing, especially with base int before so I wanna make sure I'm doing everything as efficiently as possible, This is my current spreadsheet on how to get my goal. I was reading thru more threads and came across this (https://royals.ms/forum/threads/hp-washing-nl-to-12k-hp.102999/) where Shiyui says that with 180 int, you don't need to MP wash, but I can't get the spreadsheet to reflect that even with 200 base int. Any advice or tips? Any help is really appreciated
It is barely barely possible (given no hp equips) to do it at 180 base int with no mp washing ONLY IF you strictly hp wash with level up AP because that reduces the amount of washes you need to do by about 20%. Might cost a bit more, but I usually tell people to be a bit pessimistic, doesn't cost much to get a bit of extra MP and be extra safe to cover for those times you forget to wear int gear and/or MW. You don't have to wash away the extra mp if meso is an issue.
Thanks for the insight! I'll just stick with the MP Wash route. Is there an optimal level to start mp washing at? It seems if I mp wash too early most of my cost goes into resetting int, but if I mp wash late I have to do it a bunch of times. Is there a good middle ground?
For NLs/Shad, I advise to MP wash as early as possible after reaching your target base INT because level up AP is limited and you save meso the sooner you can hp wash using level up AP. For other classes, it doesn't matter when they MP wash as long as they do it after they reach their base INT target. Write down / keep track of how you use APR and your level up AP to avoid future headaches. Washing can be quite tedious, but good planning lets you save meso too. A lot of people "bank" their level up AP after they hit their desired base INT and let it sit until they have enough funds / APR to mp wash, that way you don't lose out on level up AP. I believe there is a 255 AP "bank" limit so be careful, but I am not sure if they've changed that recently.
What would that look like, currently the calc has me doing something like this: After 35 I just mp wash with fresh AP? It's saying it'll cost me 500 APR to MP wash starting at that level?
At 35 you will have 160 base int yes. Her calculator says you only need 9 levels, 45 total (says to MP wash from lvl 126 to 135) AP spent on MP washing. 504 total for resetting int, HP washing, and MP washing. Breaking it down: 45 on MP washing, then 160 APR to reset your base int (at level 135), the rest of 299 APR on HP washing.
