High-Roller Ranks and Adventure Points

Ranks

Ranks are only for the High-Roller dungeons which have a 100 gold entry fee and an Adventure Point (AP) ante. Dark and Darker currently has 7 rank categories with a total of 19 individual ranks that players can achieve. Each rank causes an increase in AP fee to enter the High roll dungeons.

The rank at the end of the season determines the rewards granted for the start of the next season, as well as a title and banner that can be used for the present season.

Each rank is not a checkpoint, meaning it is still possible to de-rank below your current rank.

Adventure Points

There are 9 different sources of Adventure Points (AP) to advance your rank in the High-Roller dungeons. Each entrance of the dungeon cost varying amounts of AP as seen above, even if you perish. Failing to extract from the dungeon will remove all AP gains, and still pay the AP ante.

Player Kill

  • Ranges from 9.9 to 188.1 AP per kill
  • AP varies based on the number of divisions between you and the player.
     AP = 14.85 * Divisions below target + 99 
  • Divisions below target ranges from -6 to 6, as if you are 6 divisions above the target (Demigod killing a Neophyte), the value is -6.

Item Achieve

  • AP is rewarded for extracting with items that have the Looted tag. See Looted, Handled, and Supplied for more information on these tags.
  • Craftable items can now be looted as of Patch:6.4#Hotfix 46 as killed player's gear are converted to Looted.
  • AP rewarded is then multiplied by the quantity in the stack. This was not true in the past, where 1x Candy would have rewarded the same amount of AP as 10x Candy
    • The quantity displayed in the end of game report is only counting the number of stacks of the item present, although the actual AP granted is correctly per-item, not per-stack. For example, with a stack of 2 Golden Skull Tokens and a stack of 1, the quantity displayed will only be 2, but the AP granted will be 3 x 3 = 9 AP.
  • AP is calculated on extraction
  • All items give AP per slot they take up, but the general rules vary per category, albeit with many exceptions
    • Weapons, Armor, and Accessories: 1 | 2 | 3 | 5 | 10
    • Utilities and Misc: 0.5 | 1 | 2 | 4 | 6 | 10 | 20
  • Exceptions that do not follow the previously mentioned criteria have their AP listed below (these do not need to be multiplied by slot size).

Treasure

As of Patch:6.6#Hotfix 66 there is no longer a Treasure Adventure Points category, this section only exists for historical purposes. Treasure AP is still granted in the Item Achieve category. The example below applied before Hotfix 66.

The quantity displayed in the end of game report is only counting the number of stacks of the item present, although the actual AP granted is correctly per-item, not per-stack. For example, with a stack of 2 Golden Skull Tokens and a stack of 1, the quantity displayed will only be 2, but the AP granted will be 3 x 21 = 63 AP.

Dungeon Down

Assists

Player, Monster, Sub-Boss, and Boss kills also have an Assist category. While in a group, all AP gained from these kills are split evenly among team members. For whoever got the kill, the AP goes to the Kill category, while for everyone else in the group -regardless of contribution- it goes under the Kill Assist category.

The AP is split for each individual kill, and then rounded down and granted to everyone else in the party as an Assist. The remaining AP is rewarded as a Kill to whomever landed the killing blow.

Formula

Assist AP (per kill) = floor(AP / Party Size)
Kill AP (per kill) = AP - (Party Size - 1) * Assist AP

Example

Party size of 3 after killing 2 normal Skeleton Axemen which reward 5 AP each.

Assist AP (per kill) = floor(5/3) = 1 
Kill AP (per kill) = 5 - (3-1) * 1 = 3 

Since there two kills, each assisting player receives 2 AP, and the player that got the killing blow receives 6 AP. Note that this sums to 10 AP, from 5 AP per kill x 2 kills.



Rewards

Reaching a given rank will reward the individual character with that reward at the end of the season.

  • Item rewards are claimed by the character, and granted to the character
  • Cosmetic rewards are claimed by the character, but granted to the account

If the character that met the requirements is deleted before claiming the rewards at the end of the season, the rewards are permanently lost, even if they are account-wide cosmetics.
