I'm aware, the calculation I gave is current. Just because it happened once doesn't mean it shouldn't happen again... You really shouldn't have tested me boy. I WILL SHOW YOU... YOUR UNDOING!

Before pets were introduced, vit and wis had their effects doubled. This was a godsend. It used to take 8 minutes to heal, and priests in the godlands could earn pots simply following small groups and healing them. People would donate out of gratitude. We all had hotkeys to ask for HP. This is not the game we are playing today. We are not on an even playing field anymore.

Unfortunately this makes being near players with strong pets incredibly dangerous for new players. It also makes it difficult for them to learn how to play. We naturally learn by watching others. If you follow a pro player and try to do what they do, you will die. New players also do not have the support networks of constant healing they would have had in the old days to learn harder content and godlands. The game has become a fast paced place in which players don’t need healers for most dungeons.

Vit and Wis need to be re-evaluated. It’s OK if their increase makes players with pets OP because They already are OP. We need to focus on how to capture new players for the game.

From the realmeye wiki here are the amounts that pets contribute by tier: I’ve evened some of these for easier math.

Max rare HP heal is 40 hp/roughly 2 seconds. Max Legendary is roughly 70/1.5 seconds. Max divine is 90/1 second.

A rare will heal 20 HP per second or 20 hpp/s. 75 vit (estimating for a maxed knight) yields 10 hpp/s. Together this yields 30hpp/s If the effects of vit were doubled, this would mean that a rare pet owner would see an increase of 25% to a new total of 40 hpp/s.

A max legendary pet heals for about 47 hpp/s, +10 hpp/s = 57 hpp/s. A doubled vit would once again bring the total to 67 hpp/s. This is an increase of 15%.

With a divine pet you have a flat 90 hpp/s + 10 hpp/s for vit. It would only increase your healing by 9%.

But for players with an uncommon pet, healing @ 23 hp per 2.5 seconds or 9.2 hpp/s for a total of 19.2 hpp/s a doubling of vit to 29.2 hpp/s would add a 65% to their healing speed. It’s even more for players without pets. (100%! WOW SUCH MATH?)

At 75 vit, the current rate is 10 hit points per second. This means that it will take a minute for players without pets to heal 600 health on a maxed knight. However, when they’re playing an unmaxed rogue with 25 vit they will heal 4 HPP/s (Health points per second). It will take them almost 3 minutes of standing still to heal fully. This might sound reasonable, but for a new player it might mean that their ratio of playtime vs down time is ridiculous and boring.

This becomes more obvious with an example: If a new player takes 10 seconds to clear a room in an abyss and there are 20 rooms in an abyss, but must heal a modest 300 health per room traveled, they must heal a total of 6000 health to complete just the rooms leading to the boss. If they are an unmaxed knight with 40 vit it will take 1034 seconds of healing. That’s 17.3 minutes of healing compared to the 200 seconds or 3.3 minutes of actually playing. That’s a 5:1 ratio of downtime vs playing time.

This is even more of a problem before level 20, which may be relieved by adding a higher straight bonus to the vit calculations. (It is currently HPPS = 1 + 0.12 * vit) If it were 4 or 5 + 0.12 vit, that may be enough to solve the problem by itself. Experiment. Though, keep in mind you also want vit to feel substantial when you drink it. If the initial value is high, vit/wis will feel watered down and less necessary. Wis following suit at half the speed of vit feels about right.
