WorldData: Level Adjust

Part of WorldData. This page covers level-based adjustments: damage and critical scaling curves, EXP adjustments for weak enemies, party EXP distribution, EXP level penalties, per-class balance ratios, and skill attack advantage caps.

---

Damage

Section: levelAdjust.damage Operations: update

Level-gap damage scaling curves. Each sub-section (strongEnemy, strongEnemyLightParty, strongEnemySolo, weakEnemy) has the same 4 properties.

Caution

Value 1 is a special sentinel in code. Consult the programmer before setting any adjust value to exactly 1. The engine treats 1 as a no-op sentinel, not as a 1.0 multiplier.

Sub-sections

Each of the 4 sub-sections has:

Property	Type	Since	Description
pve	decimal	v92	PvE damage adjust per level gap
pveMax	decimal	v92	Maximum PvE damage adjust
pvp	decimal	v92	PvP damage adjust per level gap
pvpMax	decimal	v92	Maximum PvP damage adjust

Example

levelAdjust:
  damage:
    strongEnemy:
      pve: 0.03
      pveMax: 0.5
      pvp: 0.04
      pvpMax: 0.6
    weakEnemy:
      pve: 0.02
      pveMax: 0.3

Critical

Section: levelAdjust.critical Operations: update

Level-gap critical rate scaling curves. Same structure as Damage — 4 sub-sections (strongEnemy, strongEnemyLightParty, strongEnemySolo, weakEnemy), each with pve, pveMax, pvp, pvpMax.

Caution

Value 1 is a special sentinel in code. Same warning as Damage — consult the programmer before setting any adjust value to exactly 1.

Example

levelAdjust:
  critical:
    strongEnemy:
      pve: 0.02
      pveMax: 0.4
    strongEnemySolo:
      pvp: 0.03
      pvpMax: 0.5

LevelBalanceAdjust

Section: levelAdjust.levelBalanceAdjust.{className} Operations: create, update, delete

Per-class level-range balance ratios. The levelBalanceAdjust section is a dictionary keyed by class name string. Each class has its own independent CRUD table.

Property	Type	Since	Description
minLevel	int	v92	Minimum level of range (composite key)
maxLevel	int	v92	Maximum level of range (composite key)
atkRatio	decimal	v92	Attack ratio adjustment
defRatio	decimal	v92	Defense ratio adjustment
hpRatio	decimal	v92	HP ratio adjustment

Note

Entries use the composite key minLevel + maxLevel within each class. Deletes must specify both.

Example

levelAdjust:
  levelBalanceAdjust:
    warrior:
      create:
        - minLevel: 1
          maxLevel: 20
          atkRatio: 1.1
      update:
        - minLevel: 21
          maxLevel: 40
          changes:
            atkRatio: 1.05
    berserker:
      create:
        - minLevel: 1
          maxLevel: 20
          atkRatio: 1.15
          defRatio: 0.95
    priest:
      delete:
        - minLevel: 61
          maxLevel: 65

Exp

Section: levelAdjust.exp Operations: update (underLevelGap), create/update/delete (weakEnemy)

EXP adjustments for killing weaker enemies. Has one flat property and a CRUD table.

Flat properties

Property	Type	Since	Description
underLevelGap	int	v92	Maximum level gap before EXP drops to zero

Note

Anti-abuse: if the level gap between player and enemy exceeds underLevelGap, the player receives zero EXP.

WeakEnemy entries (CRUD)

Property	Type	Since	Description
levelGap	int	v92	Level gap value (key)
expAdjust	decimal	v92	EXP multiplier at this gap
goldBagAdjust	decimal	v92	Gold bag drop multiplier at this gap
itemBagAdjust	decimal	v92	Item bag drop multiplier at this gap

Example

levelAdjust:
  exp:
    underLevelGap: 10
    weakEnemy:
      create:
        - levelGap: 5
          expAdjust: 0.5
          goldBagAdjust: 0.5
          itemBagAdjust: 0.7
      delete:
        - levelGap: 15

ExpParty

Section: levelAdjust.expParty Operations: create, update, delete

Party EXP distribution adjustments. Two independent CRUD sub-sections: weakEnemy and highestPartyMember.

Note

underLevelGap from the solo Exp section is deliberately not used in party calculations — to allow carrying/busing.

WeakEnemy / HighestPartyMember entries

Both sub-sections share the same entry structure:

Property	Type	Since	Description
levelGap	int	v92	Level gap value (key)
expAdjust	decimal	v92	EXP multiplier at this gap
goldBagAdjust	decimal	v92	Gold bag drop multiplier at this gap
itemBagAdjust	decimal	v92	Item bag drop multiplier at this gap

Example

levelAdjust:
  expParty:
    weakEnemy:
      create:
        - levelGap: 5
          expAdjust: 0.6
          goldBagAdjust: 0.6
          itemBagAdjust: 0.8
    highestPartyMember:
      update:
        - levelGap: 10
          changes:
            expAdjust: 0.3

ExpLevelPenalty

Section: levelAdjust.expLevelPenalty Operations: create, update, delete

EXP penalty table based on player and enemy level ranges.

Property	Type	Since	Description
pcLowLevel	int	v92	Player minimum level (composite key)
pcHighLevel	int	v92	Player maximum level (composite key)
enemyLowLevel	int	v92	Enemy minimum level (composite key)
enemyHighLevel	int	v92	Enemy maximum level (composite key)
expAdjust	decimal	v92	EXP multiplier
goldBagAdjust	decimal	v92	Gold bag drop multiplier
itemBagAdjust	decimal	v92	Item bag drop multiplier

Note

Entries use the 4-part composite key pcLowLevel + pcHighLevel + enemyLowLevel + enemyHighLevel. Deletes must specify all four fields.

Example

levelAdjust:
  expLevelPenalty:
    create:
      - pcLowLevel: 60
        pcHighLevel: 65
        enemyLowLevel: 1
        enemyHighLevel: 50
        expAdjust: 0.1
        goldBagAdjust: 0.1
        itemBagAdjust: 0.2
    delete:
      - pcLowLevel: 66
        pcHighLevel: 70
        enemyLowLevel: 1
        enemyHighLevel: 50

MaxSkillAtkAdvantage

Section: levelAdjust.maxSkillAtkAdvantage Operations: update

Caps the skill attack advantage formula.

Property	Type	Since	Description
applyLevel	int	v92	Level cap for the (currentLevel - skillLearnLevel) * 1.03 formula

levelAdjust:
  maxSkillAtkAdvantage:
    applyLevel: 65
