Question regarding equipment and hp

The HP equips sounds only desirable in the lower levels.
Let's explore the different HP equips:
With two 30%s working and x amount of 70%s working with each item:

Zhelmet definitely. I don't think this is arguable.
Earrings: 105 HP
Top: 135 HP
Bottom: 135 HP
Cape: 60
Gloves: 105 HP
Face: 105 HP
Deputy Star: 745 HP
Kandiva: 100 HP

With all that, you get a whopping 845 HP. Sounds good in the lower levels, but not so great in the higher levels.

Average Work Glove is 9 ATK. Average overall is 25 DEX. Average Face is 4 DEX. Average Earrings 10 DEX. Average Cape: 8 DEX 2 ATK

So an overall loss of 43 DEX and 11 ATK
That's a hell of a loss if you don't wash.

But then again, if you leave gloves for last, then you'll still gain 740 HP, but still miss out on the 43 DEX and 2 ATK.

However, with Ruust's calculation of 22 dex being the equivalent of 400 HP, then the HP equipment option doesn't sound too bad. It actually sounds proportional with the DEX loss. (Of course, the DEX loss can vary.) You'd still be missing some ATK though from using the Kandiva.

IDK, it's your choice, just making some calculations.
