Formula
The current estimated healing formula is:
Modifiers within the same variable are additive.
Passive Heal Buffs
Passive Heal Buffs that are based on Max HP, such as
, instead use a simplified formula:
- "Receiver" refers to the unit receiving a buff (whether directly a healing buff, or a defense buff that triggers healing doublebuff)
- "Caster" refers to the unit that granted the initial buff.
Potency buffs are only factored in if they are on the caster - if the receiver has any potency buffs, those are ignored. Conversely, the Max HP of the caster is ignored, but the Max HP of the receiver is factored in to the formula. These heals also ignore bonuses from Strength or Element matching, and do not suffer the 75% penalty in raids. The healing amount is subject to 5% variance higher or lower than the expected value, similar to damage calculation.
Life Drain
Life Drain effects, such as those on
or from buffs such as
's buff, will use a formula based on damage dealt, with an enforced healing cap. This is in two parts that are then compared:
- Potential Healing:
- Healing Cap:
- Actual Healing (finds the lower of the above two values, essentially enforcing the Healing Cap):
- "Receiver" refers to the unit receiving the healing. If Life Drain is granted by a buff, they are the unit that received the buff.
- "Caster" refers to the unit that granted the initial Life Drain buff. If Life Drain is instead baked into a skill's effect (such as in Error: Table Skills not found.), the "Caster" is the unit that uses the skill.
- "Damage Inflicted" is the amount of damage dealt by a single attack from the Receiver, with Life Drain active.
- "Effect's Restoration %" is the amount of Damage that will be translated into Potential Healing. This varies depending on the skill.
- "Effect's Restoration % Cap" is the maximum amount of HP that Life Drain can heal per activation. This varies depending on the skill.
Potency buffs are only factored in if they are on the caster - if the receiver has any potency buffs, those are ignored. Conversely, the Max HP of the caster is ignored, but the Max HP of the receiver is factored in to the formula. These heals ignore bonuses from Strength or Element matching on the Caster, but are affected by Strength or Element of the receiver since those are part of the Damage Formula.These heals also do not suffer the 75% penalty in raids. The healing amount is subject to 5% variance higher or lower than the expected value, similar to damage calculation.
32px Max HP buffs
Max HP buffs, such as
's skill
do NOT use the healing formula and instead are purely dependent on your Maximum HP. They heal the amount of HP that would be gained from their Max HP buff - for example, a buff that grants +10% Max HP will heal 10% of Max HP at the same time. When the max of +30% Max HP buffs is reached, Max HP will not increase further, but (continuing the example) the 10% Max HP heal will still apply.
Due to this sole reliance on Max HP, these buffs do not receive any bonuses from Recovery Potency, Strength, or Element matching bonuses. These heals also do not suffer from the 75% reduction in raid content. Specifically, heals from Max HP buffs do not have any RNG elements, and will heal you for the same amount every time.
Variable Descriptions
HP
The healer's Max HP. Normally the HP of the Adventurer
- This value is different in dragonform, and does not use the Adventurer's HP. Instead it uses the Dragon Transformation HP, which is calculated according to the following formula, where CEILING[ ] indicates you round the final value within the [ ] up before using it in calculations outside the [ ].
- Remove the factor of 1.5x from the 2nd and 3rd terms if Dragon and Adventurer do not match elements
- Dragon Base HP is the HP shown on the Dragon's details screen (not including the fafnir bonus)
- Dragon HP Aura is the same element HP boost present on some dragons such as Phoenix or High Mercury, if no HP aura then this is equal to 1
- The Altar, Dojo and Event Facility boosts used are based on the element of the ADVENTURER and NOT the Dragon, whereas the Fafnir bonus used is based on the element of the Dragon
STR
The healer's total Strength. This value is always the value of the adventurer, it does not change when you transform. However, it is still calculated in the same way as for the Damage Formula and therefore still receives boosts from buffs and co-abilities.
Potency
Potency Buffs %
Any Boost to your healing potency, such as Co-Ability, Abilities, Active Buffs, or Energize
Element Heal Adjustment
Increases heals to adventurers of the same element by 20% (to 120% total). Has no effect otherwise.
Healing Spread %
This is the inherent RNG Variance of the healing formula. This ranges from 95% to 105%, but for simple calculations, assuming 100% is sufficient.
Raid Adjustment
Value that varies depending on the content. For normal content, this value is 1. For raids, this value is 4.
