Ark Grid ToolArk Grid DPS% Calculator
Calculates total Ark Grid DPS increase from Atk. Power, Boss Damage, and Additional Damage Astrogem points. The legality check applies 6 main cores, up to 4 Astrogems per core, and a maximum of 17 Willpower on each core.

Target Damage PlannerShows multiple legal 5/5 Astrogem upgrade paths to reach a selected total DPS target. Every option adds two stats together according to the Astrogem type.
Planner options use complete 5/5 Astrogem-equivalent upgrades. A 3WP gem adds Atk. Power + Additional Damage, a 4WP gem adds Atk. Power + Boss Damage, and a 5WP gem adds Additional Damage + Boss Damage. A recommendation will never add only one stat.

Theoretical Maximum
Maximum Astrogems246 main cores × up to 4 Astrogems.
Maximum Effect Points24024 perfect 5/5 Astrogems × 10 total effect points each.
Theoretical Max Total DMG+18.62%Maximum calculated Total DMG Increase under the legal Ark Grid limits.
The theoretical maximum uses the highest-damage legal 17-Willpower setup on each of the 6 main cores.
Per main core, the optimal perfect combination is 1× 3-Willpower Astrogem, 1× 4-Willpower Astrogem, and 2× 5-Willpower Astrogems, using exactly 17 Willpower.
Across all 6 main cores, this results in 60 Atk. Power, 90 Boss Damage, and 90 Additional Damage, for 240 total Astrogem effect points.
Using the calculator's damage formula, this produces a maximum of +18.62% Total DMG Increase.
Damage Value per Point
+1 Atk. Power≈ +0.02637 scoreLowest value of the three DPS lines.
+1 Boss Damage≈ +0.08082 scoreHighest value of the three DPS lines.
+1 Additional Damage≈ +0.05971 scoreSits between Boss Damage and Atk. Power.
D = (0.02637 × Atk. Power) + (0.08082 × Boss Damage) + (0.05971 × Additional Damage)
Total DMG % = ((1.0289 × e^(D / 100)) − 1) × 100
The displayed Total DMG Increase includes the fixed +2.89% Ark Grid baseline. Astrogem damage is then applied multiplicatively. Relative point value: 1 Boss Damage ≈ 1.35 Additional Damage ≈ 3.07 Atk. Power.
