Roll Anime to Fight Waves: DPS, Tank Checks, and Safety Factor

The Wave Survival Solver answers a single question: can the player’s team clear a target wave? The solver does not pull from a live in-client wave table because Roblox does not publish the bracket values. Instead, the brackets are community-authored and editable in the form.

Survival math

Effective team DPS is team_dps × (1 + crit_rate × crit_damage). Time to kill is boss_hp / effective_dps. Time to defeat is team_hp / enemy_dps. The safety factor is time_to_defeat / time_to_kill. A safety factor of at least 2.0 is labeled Safe, a factor between 1.0 and 2.0 is Tight, and a factor below 1.0 is Will Fail. The verdict updates as the player edits any input field.

Critical assumptions

Critical rate is clamped to [0, 1]. Critical damage is clamped to >= 1.0; a smaller value is treated as no crit. A zero team DPS or zero team HP returns a Will Fail verdict with a “no damage output” or “no HP” explanation. The solver’s “Pull from Wave Table” toggle loads default boss HP and enemy DPS for the entered target wave; the manual override lets the player enter specific numbers.

Required-deltas recommendation

When the scenario fails, the solver reports the additional team DPS or team HP needed to reach a 1.5× safety factor. The recommendation is a one-shot delta computed from the existing inputs and is intended as a starting point, not a mandatory upgrade path. The Team Synergy & Slot Optimizer can then test which roster change closes the gap.

Limitations

Auto-wave is intentionally not part of the combat math. The wave table values are community-estimated; players who run reproducible wave captures can edit the fields directly. The solver’s recommendations are dimensionless, so an upgrade that doubles effective DPS reduces the missing delta by the same factor.

FAQ

• What wave does the solver default to? Wave 30, with a manual override.
• When is a scenario Will Fail? When the safety factor drops below 1.0.
• Does auto-wave change combat math? No. It changes gold income only.
