STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE

How to use the Metin2 build and damage simulator

Build a character, equip source-backed items, choose a skill and target, then test how weapon attack, class attributes, PvM/PvP bonuses and resistances change the result.

  1. 01

    Choose your class and level

    Select Warrior, Ninja, Sura, Shaman or Lycan. Enter the level and core VIT, INT, STR and DEX values that match the character you want to model.

  2. 02

    Equip the current loadout

    Open each equipment slot and select the weapon, armour, jewellery and other items. Set the enhancement level where the catalogue provides upgrade data.

  3. 03

    Select the skill or normal attack

    Choose the attack you want to test. The skill card shows its damage type, number of hits and the confidence level of the formula.

  4. 04

    Configure the target

    Choose a target or enter custom HP, defence and the resistance that applies to the selected damage type. Enter enemy attack to estimate incoming damage.

  5. 05

    Choose PvE or PvP

    Use PvE for monsters and PvP for player-versus-player testing. Mode-specific modifiers are applied before the final result is shown.

  6. 06

    Read and compare the result

    Review outgoing hit, incoming hit, sustained DPS and time to kill. Use Build A and Build B to isolate the effect of a single item or stat change.

Controlled comparison tip

For a clean item test, copy the same setup into Build A and Build B, then change only one weapon, accessory or upgrade level.

Metin2 field manual

Plan Metin2 equipment around the damage source, not the item name.

A useful Metin2 comparison separates base weapon output, class attributes, monster or player bonuses, critical and piercing chances, and the defence that answers the selected attack. The notes below turn those layers into a repeatable testing method.

01

Class first

Warrior, Ninja, Sura, Shaman and Lycan profiles do not value STR, DEX and INT in the same way. Start with the correct class before judging equipment.

02

One damage family

Keep normal attack, skill damage and elemental or race bonuses separate. A weapon that wins one test may lose another.

03

Target-specific defence

Sword, two-handed, dagger, arrow, magic and elemental defences should be tested against the attack that actually reaches the target.

04

Controlled upgrades

Compare +0 to +9 or one bonus change at a time. Changing several pieces together hides the reason for the result.

Why bonuses need a controlled test

Metin2 equipment can combine default item values with added bonuses. Weapons may carry class attributes, critical or piercing chance, race damage and—in supported item families—average or skill damage. Armour and jewellery can answer the same fight from a defensive angle with HP, elemental resistance or weapon defence.

Because several bonuses can affect one attack at once, the highest visible attack value is not automatically the strongest setup. StatTuner keeps Build A and Build B independent so one weapon, talisman, bracelet or resistance change can be isolated against the same skill and target.

How to read weapon and jewellery changes

Use the item comparison table for source statistics, then verify the practical winner in the combat model. Bracelets often contribute attack speed plus another scaling attribute, earrings can add a class stat, and talismans are tied to elemental power. Those effects matter differently for normal attacks, skills and specialised PvM targets.

A clean test uses the same character level, class attributes, target defence and combat mode. Equip the first candidate to Build A and the second to Build B. The difference in outgoing average, sustained DPS and incoming pressure reveals whether the change is offensive, defensive or merely cosmetic in that scenario.

A practical resistance workflow

Start with the opponent profile you actually face. Enter the relevant defence or resistance, not a generic value. Then run the same skill with and without the item that supplies the resistance. This shows the marginal reduction rather than an abstract percentage.

For PvP, repeat the test with the enemy attack value filled in. A build can lose a small amount of outgoing damage while gaining enough mitigation to survive another hit. The better build therefore depends on time to kill and incoming average together, not DPS alone.

CONTROLLED TESTS

What should you compare?

Weapon A vs Weapon BSame class, same skill, same target and the same enhancement level.
Average damage vs skill damageRun one normal attack and one skill test before choosing.
Critical vs piercingEvaluate each chance against the target type and defence profile you use.
Elemental talismanUse the matching target resistance and compare final damage, not only listed power.
PvP jewelleryCompare outgoing DPS together with incoming average and time to kill.
COMMON QUESTIONS

Build laboratory FAQ

Why can a lower attack weapon deal more damage?

Its class scaling, average damage, skill damage, attack speed or target-specific bonuses may be more valuable for the selected attack.

Should I compare items at different upgrade levels?

You can, but first compare equal levels. A second test at the levels you can actually afford gives a more realistic buying decision.

Does one resistance protect against every attack?

No. Test the resistance that matches the selected damage family or weapon type.

Why are Build A and Build B equal?

Both builds start independently but may still contain identical stats and equipment. Change only one item or attribute to create a measurable difference.

Is the result an official server value?

Item values can be source-backed, while complete combat formulas may be calibrated when the publisher does not expose every server-side rule. Confidence is shown beside the result.

WORKED EXAMPLE

Calculating Magic Damage Reduction with Black Steel Armour +9

800 Damage

You are fighting a magic-casting boss that hits for 1000 base magic damage. You want to know how much damage you'll take with Black Steel Armour +9, which gives 20% Magic Resistance. This helps you decide if the armor is a good choice for this fight.

Pre-resistance Damage1000Target Resistance20%
FormulaDamage after resistance = pre-resistance damage × (1 − effective resistance)
  1. Start with 1000 base magic damage. This is before any resistance.
  2. Black Steel Armour +9 gives 20% Magic Resist. Convert 20% to a decimal: 0.20.
  3. Calculate the damage multiplier: (1 - 0.20) = 0.80. This means you take 80% of the original damage.
  4. Multiply base damage by this factor: 1000 × 0.80.
  5. This gives the final damage after resistance.
Target ResistanceDamage Taken (from 1000 base)
0%1000
10%900
20% (Black Steel Armour +9)800
30%700

With Black Steel Armour +9, 1000 magic damage becomes 800 damage. Your armor reduced the damage by 200 points. A 20% magic resistance is very effective against magic attacks. This reduction can be crucial for surviving tough boss hits, making resistance planning vital for challenging content.

Limitations

  • This tool only calculates damage reduction from a single resistance value. It does not combine multiple resistance types or complex stacking.
  • It does not account for other combat mechanics like defense points, attack value, critical hits, or skill damage.
  • The calculator assumes resistance is a direct percentage reduction. Some game mechanics might have different or capped calculations.
  • It does not consider specific monster resistances, PvP modifiers, or character class bonuses. Use other tools for those details.
