Skyblock Levels missing information

[MattTheCuber]

Hello, this question is directed at the skyblock developers.

We are trying to make a Skyblock Level calculator and obviously have run into a few issues.

1. Museum is obvious and not the topic of this post.
2. Quests are difficult because some give no XP, others 5 XP, and maybe some give 10 XP? I would be amazing if there was some way to see this in game (maybe in the quest lore, or a different color for each type?).
3. Bank Upgrades
4. Now, the real question for this post is the exponential powder formulas. According to the game you earn an exponentially decreasing amount of Skyblock XP between 350k and 12.5m/20m. We have tried calculating these formulas to save asking the developers for it, but have realized that we can only obtain approximate formulas. It would be amazing if the developers could either display these formulas in game or share it in this post so that we can make our calculation a little more accurate.

Please add skyblock experience as a an single value to the API. Then I can calculate the skyblock level without fancy math thingy. Thanks. Would make me and I guess everyone else happy.

Hey guys, SkyBlock dev here. Levels is going to be added to the API soon, but in the meantime, here is the formula for the overflow powder calculations. Keep in mind this is just for overflow, not the per powder until 350k:

multiplier * (Math.sqrt(1 + 8 * (Math.sqrt((1758267 / CAP) * left + 9))) - 3)

Where multiplier is 3.75 for Mithril and 4.25 for Gemstone and CAP is 12,500,000 for Mithril and 20,000,000 for Gemstone
“Left” is the amount of powder left after subtracting 350,000

[LandonDev]

There must be something wrong with your calculations. Remember, the input is after subtracting the cap, so max for Mithril would be 12,150,000. I will once again put the formula exactly how it appears in our calculation:

const = 1758267
left = powder - 350000
multiplier = 3.75 for mithril and 4.25 for gemstone
cap = 12,500,000 for mithril and 20,000,000 for gemstone

(multiplier * (Math.sqrt(1 + 8 * (Math.sqrt((cons / cap) * left + 9))) - 3))

I have checked for some people, and I don't think the overflow equation is the problem
It seems to work, but only if you use ~154.66 XP for the linear portion up to 350k for both mithril and gemstone, rather than ~285.8333 XP like I found in my last reply
So it seems that the descriptions of "Gain +1 XP per 2,400 powder until 350,000 powder." and "Gain +1 XP per 2,500 powder until 350,000 powder." are wrong or outdated or something
I'm not sure what the actual linear equations for these are then, but as I said in the last reply, it should be an average of gaining around +1 XP per 4,526 powder instead of 2,450
Either the description is wrong and the linear equation is something different, or there's some weird other reason that ~131.17 XP is not being added
Could you check to see what the two linear equations are?

FYI the 2,450 he refers to is the average of both types (2,400 for mithril and 2,500 for gemstone). So the average appears to actually be 4,526. Which would mean something like 4,500 for mithril and 4,550 for gemstone.

Ok, now I'm just super confused. Because this guy has HotM 4 which is supposed to be 215 XP, but his total HotM XP including powder is 172 XP.

So, I looked into this myself and from what I can tell, the given formula here is correct.

However, there seems to be a bug where your highest HOTM level does not grant any sb xp, so at hotm 6 you only gain the xp from lvl 1-5.
If this gets fixed, the actual max amount would be 1625 sb xp.

Ignoring the highest hotm level, I get correct values from my calculator using the exact formula given here.
