# Special Bonus: Hit Points Formula

The Hit Points formula is quite complex. The exact formula for Vanguard Fighters is given via the following variables:

**General Variables**

* Tank Role Bonus = 1.2
* Base HP = (Item Level\*10+1)\*Tank Role Bonus
* Gear HP= Sum of every HP source on gear (Armor Kits, HP Enchantments, SH Boons, Potions, Weapon Offstat, Artifacts, Insignias, Companion Powers, Runestones, Journal Set Bonus)

**Multipliers** (TODO: What is with Lulu the Hollyphant?)

* HPM1.1 (HP Multiplier 1 Version 1) = (100 + Boons% + Bulwark of Brimstone (5%) + Second 
* Wind (20%) \* Neverwinter Armament (6%)) / 100
* HPM1.2 (HP Multiplier 1 Version 2) = (100 + Boons% + Bulwark of Brimstone (5%)) / 100
* HPM2 (HP Multiplier 2) = (100 + CON/2 + VIP) / 100
* Ghosted (Wisps of the Shadow Demon) = (1+0.2\*HPM1.2\*HPM2)

**HP formula**

HP = (Base HP + Gear HP)\*HPM1.1\*HPM2\*Ghosted

Example Values:

* Item Level  = 53358
* Second Wind used
* Neverwinter Armament used
* Ghosted procced
* Bulwark of Brimstone slotted (5%)
* HP from Gear = 82479
* 20 Boons for total 4%
* 30 CON
* VIP Bonus 1%

**General Variables**

* Base HP = (53358\*10+1)\*1.2 = 640297.2
* Gear HP = 82479

**Multipliers**

* HPM1.1 = (100 + 4 + 5 + 20 + 6) / 100 = 1.35
* HPM1.2 = (100 + 4 + 5) / 100 = 1.09
* HPM2= (100 + 30/2 + 1) / 100 = 1.16
* Ghosted = (1+0.2\*1.09\*1.16) = 1.25288

**HP formula**

HP = (640297.2 + 82479)\*1.35\*1.16\*1.25288 = 1 418 094.19
