Health of Cogs
Cogs have certain amount of health that depend on their level and are determined by certain mathematic formulas. The table below shows the health of every existing Cog level.
Level | Health |
---|---|
Level 1 | 6 |
Level 2 | 12 |
Level 3 | 20 |
Level 4 | 30 |
Level 5 | 42 |
Level 6 | 56 |
Level 7 | 72 |
Level 8 | 90 |
Level 9 | 110 |
Level 10 | 132 |
Level 11 | 156 |
Level 12 | 196 |
Level 13 | 224 |
Level 14 | 254 |
Level 15 | 286 |
Level 16 | 320 |
Level 17 | 356 |
Level 18 | 394 |
Level 19 | 434 |
Level 20 | 476 |
Formulas
Level 1-11 Cogs
The formula for health of Cogs from levels 1 to 11 can be:
f(x) = x2 + 3x + 2
or in a simplified way:
f(x) = (x + 1) * (x + 2)
where x is the Cog's level and f(x) is a function that returns the Cog's health value.
For example, the formula works in the following method to determine the health of level 4 Cogs.
f(4) = (4 + 1) * (4 + 2)
f(4) = (5) * (6)
f(4) = 30
Level 12+ Cogs
Level 12 Cogs previously had a 10% boost in health, putting them at 200. As of the 3.0.0 update that was released on December 3, 2021, which introduced balancing changes, level 12+ Cogs now have a unique formula to determine their health.[1]
The formula for health of level 12+ Cogs can be:
f(x) = x2 + 3x + 16
which is the same as the formula for levels 1 through 11, but has an increase of 14 units in Y value for every unit of X. Unlike the former formula, it has no roots.
The simplified formula can also be represented as:
f(x) = (x + 1) * (x + 2) + 14
For example, the formula works in the following method to determine the health of level 16 Cogs.
f(16) = (16 + 1) * (16 + 2) + 14
f(16) = 17 * 18 + 14
f(16) = 306 + 14
f(16) = 320
