Enemy Mechanics[1][]
Enemy Status[]
Random Level Determinations[]
- Common Enemy levels are randomly determined in the range of Q.Lv -2 to +2.
- Boss levels are randomly determined in the range of Q.Lv +5 to +6.
- Named Monster levels are fixed.
Status Calculation[]
Growth Rates[]
Growth Rates are the rate at which enemies increase their stats as the enemy's level increases. While it is not necessary to understand this to play the game, this information may be helpful for pre-planning long runs.
The following table summarizes the stat Growth Rates and corresponding Base values.
Growth Rate | Base |
---|---|
30% | 3 |
40% | 4 |
50% | 5 |
75% | 6 |
100% | 7 |
Enemy Status Basic Formula[]
Enemy Status = Base + (Enemy Level * Growth Rate)
- For example, if the enemy is Level 50 and has a Status with a Growth Rate of 50%, then the formula is 5 + (50 * 0.5) = 30.
Health Points Basic Formula[]
Health Points (HP) = Base HP * VIT
- For example, if VIT is 50 and the Base HP is 400, then the formula is 50 * 400 = 20,000.
- Enemy Health Points Exceptions
- Some enemies have fixed HP values that increase or decrease in addition to the normal VIT * Base HP formula.
- This change in fixed value is added or subtracted after multiplying by the HP corrections for Multiplayer and Quest Difficulty.
Health Points Correction Formula[]
Health Points (HP) = Base HP * VIT * Quest Level HP Correction * Multiplayer HP Correction
- Don't forget to convert the percentages to decimals.
Enemy Health Points Corrections[]
Depending on the Quest Level and number of players in a party, the Health Points and various stats of enemies will change.
The following tables show percentage estimates for Health Points increases depending on the situation. Note: "Hard" Quests are indicated by an increased number of enemies, usually above Quest Level 60.
Quest Level | Common Enemies | Bosses |
---|---|---|
66 and below | 100% | 100% |
70 | 125% | 150% |
75 | 150% | 200% |
80 | 175% | 250% |
85 | 200% | 300% |
90 | 225% | 350% |
95 | 250% | 400% |
100 | 275% | 450% |
105 | 300% | 500% |
110 | 325% | 550% |
115 | 350% | 600% |
120 | 375% | 650% |
Number of Players | Normal | Hard |
---|---|---|
1 | 100% | 100% |
2 | 150% | 165% |
3 | 200% | 230% |
4 | 250% | 295% |
Materials Drop Chance[]
It either needs improvement or needs to be updated to the current version of DMFD (3.1.5). Please help out Dragon Marked For Death Wiki by improving this article.
There is roughly a 30% chance that after the monster is killed it will drop an item, and this increases by 0.5% per point in LUC. If an item is dropped, there is then a 60/40 split that the item will be a Litus Piece (further split 88/10/2; copper, silver, gold) or monster part. Some monsters have multiple drops. (This section is disregarding food/herb drops currently)
For the example below, character's LUC is an assumed 6 (for +3% drop chance).
% Chance Best to Worst | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Per Monster Kill | ||||
Litus Copper Piece | 33% | 60% | 88% | = 17.4% |
Monster Part (Version 2.0.0 ONLY) | 33% | 40% | ~ | = 13.2% |
Litus Silver Piece | 33% | 60% | 10% | = 1.98% |
Litus Gold Piece | 33% | 60% | 2% | = .396% |
Litus Platinum Piece | WIP | WIP | WIP | = WIP |
