Monster HP formula?

Hi,

can anyone help me with finding an algorithm for monster HP?

It increases by a certain value every level and every few levels, that value gets a bit higher, too.
Here's a MySQL export of the data: Sheet.

When plotting it the graph looks a bit like an exponential function, but I'm not sure...

you could plot it and find the ression curve. or w/e its called. you can do it with a graphing calculator like that also. though i forget how to do it with one.

It is kind of exponential, but I think it might work better as 4 linear regressions. Is this data including bosses? Because they probably shouldn't be included.

Well, I have no idea what a linear regression even is. Bosses and all non-KMS/special mobs (as those usually differ a bit too) are, of course, excluded. Unfortunately there are a few monsters that aren't flagged as bosses when they actually are, but those should be easy to spot as their values won't fit into the scheme.

I've tried several interpolation methods using XLSTAT, but it couldn't give me any term that described these values accurately... I probably also configured it wrongly, knowing nothing about this type of function.

linreg is finding the y = mx + b equation that best fits a data set (usually by least squares)

I tried looking for this since it seemed to follow a formula. But the search for the formula proved fruitless. Eventually I concluded that while a formula likely exists, the opportunity cost of finding the formula is too high.

Here's a table of the formulas for different level ranges (x is the level)
There was only one mob in your data that did not fit:
Mobid: 3150000
level: 31
HP: 990
