Soul Farming Data

Data for souls gained from enemies at different world tendency and by utilizing soul gain items.

World Tendency

The amount of souls given by a killed enemy is a default value. The amount is the same during White and Neutral World Tendency, but it increases at Black World Tendency. This value acts as a baseline for other items that further increases the soul gain.

• Souls gained increases 30%, 40% or 50%, dependent on how Black the world is.

Some tests with souls gained during different world tendencies. Most are from the first Fat Minister in 2-1:

Deaths from Pure White World Tendency:

Deaths:	PWWT	-1	-2	-3	-4	-5	-6 (PD)	PBWT
Souls:	548	548	548	548	548	713 (+30%)	822 (+50%)	822 (+50%)

Deaths from default offline tendency:

Deaths:	Neutral	-1	-2	-3 (PD)	PBWT
Souls:	548	548	768 (+40%)	822 (+50%)	822 (+50%)

Killed Primeval Demon at PBWT (+2.5), then turned tendency towards black:

Deaths:	0	-1	-2
Souls:	548	768 (+40%)	822 (+50%)

Killed BP Scirvir at PBWT (+3), then turned tendency towards black:

Deaths:	0	-1	-2	-3 (PD)
Souls:	548	548	768 (+40%)	822 (+50%)

Killed Scirvir at PWWT (-3), then turned tendency towards black:

Deaths:	0	-1	-2	-3 (PD)
Souls:	548	548	713 (+30%)	822 (+50%)

Killed Miralda and Doran at PWWT (-5), and got a 30% increase in souls from enemies (same as dying 5 times).

Multipliers

The amount of souls gained can be increased by wearing a ring or casting a spell, it can also be increased with critical damage. All items listed under multipliers stack (bracelets + ring + spell = 98% increase).

• Silver Bracelets (female only) gives a 10% increase in souls.
• Ring of Avarice gives a 20% increase in souls.
• Soul Thirst gives a 50% increase in souls, for 30 seconds, when applied.

Massive Critical Damage

Massive Critical Damage is when you deal 150% damage to an enemy in one hit (imagine emptying a full health bar and second chance). This often occurs with low health enemies (dreglings, prisoners, storm beasts), or during hypermode backstabs etc.

• Massive Critical Damage gives a 20% increase in souls.
  • Stacks with multipliers.
  • Note: This technique can not be used with Soulsucker.

Soulsucker

This bonus is independent of the item multipliers, but it is dependent on the World Tendency value. It kind of acts in parallel with the multipliers.

• Soulsucker gives a 100% bonus in souls.

+ Show Examples

Souls given during Pure Black World Tendency, killing enemy with Soulsucker while wearing silver Bracelets and Ring of Avarice.

Pure Black WT	Default + 50% = Baseline	(Default x 1,50)
Silver Bracelets	10% of Baseline	((Default x 1,5) x 1,10)
Ring of Avarice	20% of Baseline and Bracelets	((Default x 1,5) x 1,10 x 1,20)
Soulsucker	100% of Baseline	+ (Default x 1,5)
Total	((Default x 1,50) x (1,10 x 1,20)) + (Default x 1,50) = (Default x 3,48)

Calculations need to be made more comprehensible.

Adding it all up:

• If an enemy has a Default value of 1000 souls during White or Neutral WT, it will give 1500 souls during PBWT (+50%).
• If the enemy is also killed with Soulsucker, an additional 1500 souls bonus wil be added (+100% of WT total)
• If you are also wearing the above items, then 10% and 20% (32% stacked value) are added to the WT total.
  • This gives a total of: 1500 x (1,1 x 1,2) + 1500 = 3480 souls (a 3,48 multiplier over White or Neutral WT)
  • Adding Soul Thirst to the above example: 1500 x (1,1 x 1,2 x 1,5) + 1500 = 4470 souls (a 4,47 multiplier).
  • Swapping Soulsucker with Critical Damage: 1500 x (1,1 x 1,2 x 1,5 x 1,2) = 3564 souls (a 3,564 multiplier).

New Game+(+)

The number of souls gained will also increase, along with the difficulty, for each consecutive game cycle. In NG+ the numbers are individually adjusted for each world, while in NG++ and onwards they are global percentages of the NG+ values. This value acts as the default value for that particular game cycle, then the World Tendency bonus are added, and the other multipliers are added on top of that again. From NG5+ (sixth playthrough) and onwards, the increase will level out.

Boss Data

Souls given by defeated bosses. White or Neutral World Tendency, no multipliers used.

Notes

• The increase is the same for bosses, demons and npc's in each world, apart from a few special cases.
  • The Red Eye Knight in 1-1 is the same level as the ones in 1-3.
  • The Fat Minister in 1-2 is the same level as the ones in 1-3.
  • Old King Doran is the same level regardless of NG cycle.
• Playing as a blue will only give you half the souls of the host?
  • Souls earned from killing end-level bosses is also dependent on what rating you are given.

• I also tested a Blue Eye Knight's health and attack power in NG5+ vs NG6+, and both were exactly the same, so it looks like the difficulty caps at NG5+ as well.
