Pixel Lineage Combat & Effective HP Calculator

DR% = Total_DEF / (Total_DEF + 60)

EHP = Total_HP / (1.0 - DR%)

EDPT = Total_ATK * (1.0 + (Crit_Rate * (Crit_Multiplier - 1.0)))

With 150 Total DEF and 526 Total HP, this setup can withstand 7.4 consecutive unblocked boss cleaves. Serves as the quintessential raid tank that allows party members to channel uninterrupted high-cost spells.

Features extreme turn speed (74 SPD) and a 34.4% passive critical strike probability. When striking from stealth, critical hits deal over 390 damage, eliminating high-threat enemy spellcasters in a single action phase.

Starting with 4 Energy allows an immediate Tier-2 Mana Shield (1 EP) and Doom Curse (3 EP). With 131 Total MAG, decay ticks deal over 314 damage per turn, completely bypassing boss physical armor.

The theoretical pinnacle of character building. Universal +15% scaling across all 7 attributes combined with +110 DEF and +250 HP from Legendary Regalia guarantees survival through even Torment III Abyss enrage cycles.

Each combatant builds an Action Progress bar at a rate proportional to their Speed attribute. When the gauge hits 100%, that unit takes their turn phase. High-speed Thieves and Assassins can achieve a 2:1 turn ratio against heavy dungeon bosses.

Landing a critical strike with blunt Fist weaponry or heavy greatswords applies a 15% to 25% Action Gauge delay to the recipient. This turns offensive speed into a defensive survival mechanism by delaying boss attack turns.

Standard characters restore 1 Energy Point (EP) per turn phase. Classes or traits granting additional actions effectively accelerate energy generation, unlocking high-tier 3-cost and 4-cost Ultimate skill rotations significantly sooner.

How does Effective Health Pool (EHP) differ from normal Hit Points (HP)?

Hit Points represent your raw visible health bar. Effective Health Pool factors in your Defense mitigation percentage to compute the total unmitigated damage you can take before death. For instance, having 500 HP with 50% damage reduction results in an EHP of 1,000, meaning you can take double the incoming damage compared to a 0 DEF character.

Why does Defense have diminishing returns in Pixel Lineage?

Because mitigation follows the hyperbolic curve DEF / (DEF + 60). The first 60 Defense provides 50% damage reduction. The next 60 Defense (totaling 120) only provides an additional 16.6% reduction (reaching 66.6%). Therefore, once your character hits 100–120 DEF, investing in flat HP, Dodge, or Lifesteal yields vastly superior survivability per stat point.

Does the Prodigy talent increase equipment stats or only base character stats?

In Pixel Lineage, the Prodigy talent applies its universal +15% multiplier exclusively to base character attributes derived from level milestones and class baselines. It does not multiply flat bonuses granted by equipped weapons and armors, though it does scale base stats before gear additions are calculated.

How can I test my calculated build against real in-game encounters?

You can verify your character's combat performance by queuing into Act 2 The Dungeon or challenging the Guild Training Dummies located in the Castle Courtyard. The combat logs display raw damage rolls, critical strike triggers, and mitigation amounts that directly correspond to this simulator's mathematical output.
