Hitpoints is a combat-related skill that determines how much damage a player or NPC can withstand before dying. Food can be consumed to restore lost Hitpoints, and they also regenerate passively over time—healing 1 point every 100 Ticks (60s)—both during and outside of combat. This allows for slow, natural recovery without the use of food.
Experience Calculation[edit]
Experience gained in Hitpoints is calculated using the formula: floor(4/3 × damage)
Because of the floor rounding, you may lose small amounts of experience if your damage dealt isn't divisible by 3. For example:
- A hit of 3 or 6 will yield full XP.
- A hit of 2 or 5 will result in a decimal value (e.g., 10.66), which is rounded down to 10.
This rounding loss becomes less significant as your hits get larger. (Losing 0.33 XP from a 2-damage hit is more impactful than losing 0.33 XP from a 20-damage hit.)
