Testing dreadstone armor regeneration


Recommended Posts

Just tested the new dreadstone armor regeneration, this is ROUGHLY how effectively it regenerates over time.
All tests were done with a single piece of dreadstone armor (no helm), taking a single hit from Ancient Guardian and timing how long the armor takes to regenerate to full. This was done with godmode so that sanity does not change at all.

EDIT: Dreadstone armor was changed to have the same durability and damage reduction as Dreadstone helm, which is 840 and 90% (down from 1260 and 95%).

AG dmg = 100 dmg
Dreadstone armor reduction = 95% 90%
Durability loss per hit = 100 dmg * 0.95 0.9 = 95 90 durability
Dreadstone armor (and helm) durability: 840

At 100% sanity it takes ~155 seconds for dreadstone armor to recover to full from one AG hit
95 90 durability / ~155 seconds = ~0.61 0.58 durability/sec
840 durability / 0.58 = ~1446.67 seconds or ~24.11 minutes from 0% to 100% (or about 3 days)

At 0% sanity it takes ~92.5 seconds seconds for dreadstone armor to recover to full from one AG hit
95 90 durability / 92.5 seconds = ~1.03 0.97 durability/sec
840 durability / 0.97 = ~863.33 seconds or ~14.39 minutes from 0% to 100% (or about 2 days)

If I made a silly mistake somewhere in here please let me know :)

Seems weird that the armor regens even when at max sanity, let alone it's not even at half efficiency compared to 0%. Good job getting exact numbers though :D 

Wait Dreadstone armor is still 95%? I tested it's damage and it seemed to be on par with 90% armor now. Did I read that wrong?

I was thinking the same thing, if it rewards insanity I'd assume it would start regenerating when at 80% sanity or something. But still it's not a biggie, sounds like the armor is great now.

It looks like the durability of the chest piece was nerfed too??? I think the helm and chestpiece now share the same durability and protection as a thulecite crown.

Thanks for pointing this out, I can confirm the durability and damage reduction is the same as the helm now :c
Also means my calculation is way off, fixing now.

Here's the full data:


Durability Recovery per second =1/(909+591×Sanity proportion)

If the player is equipped with both helmet and armor, the amount of durability recovered per second becomes 1.5 times.

 

So:

Equip one pieces, full sanity: 0.067%/s

Equip one pieces, zero sanity: 0.11%/s

Equip two pieces, full sanity: 0.1%/s

Equip two pieces, zero sanity: 0.167%/s

 

Also the force 0 sanity from Nightmare Amulet or Bone Helmet will also speed its recovery, but if your sanity is below 76%, equipping them will not be as effective as equipping another piece of dreadstone equipment.
