Meso income estimator

How long until you can afford that Zakum helm? Punch in your grind rate, and we'll math out the meso-per-hour and hours-to-goal.

Your grind

Kills per minute Beginner grind ~15-25 KPM; 2nd-job AoE grind ~40-80. Target mob (optional) Picking a mob auto-fills the meso-per-kill estimate based on its level. Meso per kill (avg when it drops) Rough traditional MapleStory formula: mob level * 1.5. Override if your in-game observations differ. Drop rate % 65% traditional MapleStory default ~65% for regular mobs. Higher on events or with Meso Up buffs. Meso multiplier Server events + Meso Up buffs stack. 1.0 = base rate.

Costs

Potion cost per minute (mesos) Mage MP-drain? 1st-job attacker with HP pots? Include here to see net income. 0 for pot-free grinds.

Goal

Savings goal (mesos) 1M / 10M / 100M - what are you saving for? Session length (minutes)

Note: traditional MapleStory meso mechanics are community consensus; drop rate and level->meso coefficient are approximate. CoT 2 launch will let us tighten these once observed rates settle. Good for goal-planning, not for min-maxing to the meso.

How this is calculated

Gross/hr = KPM * 60 * MesoPerKill * (DropRate/100) * MesoMult

Net/hr = Gross/hr - (PotCost * 60)

Session total = Net/hr * (SessionMin / 60)

Hours to goal = Goal / Net/hr (returns infinity if net/hr <= 0 - i.e. pots cost more than you earn)
