High-Roller Ranks and Adventure Points

Ranks

Ranks are only for the High-Roller dungeons which now have a 0 gold ante but instead have 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 to enter the High roll dungeons.

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.

Props Interaction

Note: Opening props grant AP only the first time they are opened. This includes repeatable props such as ore nodes, treasure horde, and shrines. Breakables such as crates, barrels, and pots do not count as prop interaction nor do they give AP.

There are duplicate props on the list because on some maps they give different values.

High-End Props Interaction

  • Same as Prop Interaction but only includes high grade "props". Please use list above to refer to all prop values.

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 here for more information on the Looted and Handled tag.
  • Craftable items cannot reward AP as they cannot be found as Looted, only Handled.
  • The amount of AP rewarded is independent of the quantity in the stack. For example, a 1x Candy rewards the same amount of AP as 10x Candy if they are in the same stack. As such, splitting the stack will reward more AP.
  • AP is calculated on extraction
  • Weapons and Armor give 1 AP per 1 gold they sell for
    • Which is 1 | 2 | 3 | 6 | 10 | 20 | 30 AP, multiplied by the number of slots the item takes up
  • Utilities, Accessories and Misc (like Treasures, Gems, Hunting Loot like Kobold Ears, Mimic Tongue's, etc) reward AP equal to their rarity (not multiplied by slot size), where Junk through Unique rewards 0-7 AP
    • Junk is equivalent to rarity 0 and therefore gives 0 AP
    • Unique is equivalent to rarity 7 and therefore gives 7 AP
    • Treasures give even more AP as they are also in the Treasure section
  • There are some exceptions that do not follow the previously mentioned criteria, where their AP is listed below (these are not multiplied by slot size)

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.
