Bell's Power & Stats Explained! How Does Levelling Work in DanMachi?

If you watched to the end, do you think that a Level 5 Bell will have stats that are better than a Level 6 Ais? Thanks again to today’s sponsor - Start Playing Last Cloudia Here: bit.ly/34oiG2k

[@adamchu2001]

Bell is Level 3 in the anime and can already jump levels, so i think that if bell gets to level 5 he probably could fight Aiz or someone at level 6. TLDR if Aiz stagnates (doubtful) and bell continues with his constant growth (doubtful) then yeah at lvl 5 he could fight her. But i think Aiz has close to Bells Natural Talent (Sword Oratoria explains but trying to stay anime only read to vol 12-13) and what's not to say that she does not reach a higher level before bell does. She increased her level from 5-6 by fighting a Floor Boss Solo whats to say she does not fight a monster at that level or Ottar? The main problem with Bells growth is that at some point his love for Aiz is not gonna fuel his growth as what happens when he gets stronger than her? Does he still grow the same?

[@Fish-ub3wn]

Maths say yes, but logically his quad exp skill should stop him from overshooting Ais as soon as they become equal. Or at least turn itself into a debuff. Love your content :)

[@stevenldoe7838]

@@adamchu2001 Ainz starts to grow faster when she gets ottar to train her. They will probably reach level 7 together. Bell is closing in on level 5 in the light novels. Book 15 he gains 3400 stat points from his book 12-14 expedition danmachi series. Than he saves everybody in the city in book 12 Sword oratoria. Bell and Ainz do duel in Book 11. He survives as a level 4. Shes is not using Airel or any skills.

Fun Fact: In Danmemo Bell basically inherited huge parts from his parents, he gained his kindness from his mother and the ability to run away from his father.

[@rasmachris94]

I wrote a long thing, got too long - In simplified form/TL;DR; [I used RPGS as a basis and their systems for my explanation] First, there are a couple rules in the world; In order to level, they must meet a level requirement of proficiencies and skill. People have base primary stats that they are born with, and this dictates their ability to wield certain weapons and their overall potential when directly compared to someone else with the same weapon [these are your typical DnD, pen and paper character sheet core stats]. The ability to draw out potential, limited by the weapon that the individual uses. The higher the quality of the weapon, the higher the scaling and therefore the closer to their 'true potential', or absolute maximum damage they can do with that type of weapon you reach. Lastly, when they level they gain a power boost that scales off of their experiences, however, it is limited by their innate ability. Functionally speaking, it is scaling for how much you can gain from a level up [A C user gaining an average amount of experience and scaling when they level, and an A earning more than average]. For example, if they're a B with a sword through experience, but only have a D in their innate level-up potential, when they level it is likely that they would average out to a C and only improve at an average rate, even though their experiences and hard work would have offered them above average skill. The reason that last bit is longer and annoying to get across is because it is important and the crux of how Bell can be so strong whilst everyone around him only gets marginally stronger. Sure, there is the background ability to gain xp faster, but that only reduces the time spent levelling, giving him more levels, but not more experience. This would mean that instead of getting stronger, he would become a higher level, but weaker than his same-level peers because his experiences levelling would be too shallow to be considered experience and therefore he would actually be weaker than everyone else at the same level, even the average person because he is constantly playing from behind, where trying to get ahead would limit the amount of actual combat experience, but not levelling and therefore his scaling would be significantly weaker since we know thats a crux of performance/levelling in this world. What I'm getting at is that you have scaling for your levelling. Levelling jumps your stats up a bunch, and Bell specifically has insane stats across the board for both that and the rate at which he improves at skills he's trying to learn. It's not just the xp boost, it's his damage scaling and then his level scaling on top of that. Even if Bell tried to become a swordsman/mage, because of his ability to draw out the potential of his stats, he would eclipse his peers. This would normally balance out with poor consolidation of those skills at level-up, however Bell is broken and so he has his learned skills amplified during the levelling process to an absurd degree. When he levels, assuming his levelling is similar to his other stats, Bell Cranel would recieve an A, S, SS, or SSS scaling to whatever skills he has tried to learn when he does end up levelling up. Just to emphasise how insane this is, if this was an RPG; A 100 damage sword. D would be x0.75 damage to damage, dealing 75 damage C scaling would be x1 scaling to damage = 100 damage B scaling would be x1.25 to damage = 125 damage A scaling would be x1.5 damage = 150 damage S scaling would be x1.75 damage = 175 damage SS scaling would be x2 damage = 200 damage SSS scaling would be x2.25 damage = 225 damage. Please bear in mind this is ON TOP of the base damage as scaling. If bell has SSS scaling on his levelling on top of his base scaling, he would literally be broken in any RPG because you are multiplying already multiplied stats. If we assume the same figures as before and apply the levelling scaling of SS class levelling on top of the weapon scaling you see how ridiculous this gets, even with simple numbers. Bell's damage literally doubles at all weapon proficiency ratings, just because his level scales insanely well. D proficency = 150 damage C proficiency = 200 damage B proficiency = 250 damage A proficiency = 300 damage S proficiency = 350 damage SS proficiency = 400 damage SSS proficiency = 450 damage. Even if Bell does not maximize his learning experience and performs averagely in his skill proficiency with a skill such as swordsmanship, because of his broken level-scaling, he will gain double the damage/double the experience in relation to his same-level peers when he levels, assuming that they retain their proficiencies at an average rate of x1. Not only does he level twice as fast, he scales twice as hard [and this isn't even the SSS case senario]. [I know I know I made it long again]

[@ReaganWForrest]

It is sad that you don't have many likes despite having put in so much work. Underrated comment 10/10

[@rasmachris94]

​@@ReaganWForrest I think i just made it too confusing and can vaguely remember what i was on about. But i think the long short of it was that it's like traditional RPG systems where a character has the ability to scale based on proficiency, rated E to SSS - the latter being the best. Bell seems to have high base stats in any skill he picks up in relation to his peers, meaning weapons he uses and spells he uses are naturally at a higher quality and do more damage to start, keeping that consistent lead. In RPG's this is often shown as: Base Damage + Scaling [Base Damage * Proficiency] * Level = Actual Damage. In simplest mathematical form; Damage: D Proficiency: P [E-S tier [where C is 1:1, +/- 0.25 above or below C]] Scaling: D + P = S Level: L [D*P] = S D+S*L = Actual Damage So a 100 damage sword on a level two adventurer with a B proficiency [1.25] would be; 100*1.25 = 125 100+125 = 225 225*2 = 450 Actual Damage. It's a little more complicated than that because weapons have their own scaling and it's a calculation between the users proficiency and the weapons proficiency. But for fun, Bell Cranel as an S ranked proficiency, level four adventurer, with an S rank weapon that does 100 damage each attack would be; 100*1.75 = 175 100+175 = 275 275*4 = 1100 And just for reference so the level difference makes sense and why Bell gets so significantly stronger, Bell at level 3 instead of 4 would do 825 damage. If he does that to all of his stats and skills then it's no wonder he's broken. ^ I think that makes more sense than my inital comment tbh, just because the it was a 3am type.

if you ask, the buff that people obtain by leveling up is like 1000 points per level, that meaning: normal adventureres have aproximately 3500 points at the end of level 1, when they got to level 2, they have acumulated 4500 points(this with the buff by level up), in the war game, bell´s opponent was almost ready to go to level 4, menaing his status were likely 13000 points, but bell being a level 2,and all his SS and SSS status, has aproximately 12500 points, meaning that the NEW level 3 bell, has around 13500 points, the same amount a normal adventurer would have JUST BEFORE going to level 4.. posdt: in the novel bell is a recently new level 4 adventurer(having all his stats in 0), his status are a little higher from a new level 5, meaning he literally skip 1 complete level podt 2: the bust that offers harihume, gives 5000 point to the user, basically level him up 1 level, meaning that if the acttual light novel bell uses that bust, his stats will be from someone of level 6(mostly new at that level), menaing he can give a fair fight to aiz( not beat her, but being almost to her level)

Lets say the level 6s of a familia can only make it to the 60th floor but that floor is extremely tough.

It wasnt a vid on history, math or whatever but I truly enjoyed it very much. Great job on researching all that info. I know that wasnt easy especially if you did it yourself. Enjoy.

[@-Garaf-]

Great video like always! Love to get deeper in the lore of these series. 1 thing I want to point out is about the base abilities limit. Upon reading vol 9 of Sword Oratoria spin-off, i found that those abilities are the proficiency given in a certain field (dexterity, endurance/defense, magic, etc), and that the upper bound is based on the race. In human cases that is a max of 999 for each field. As of now we don't know the limits for other races (so from here it all comes to speculation), but some races could have higher or lower limits to some of those stats (example a dwarf having a higher upper limit for strength or endurance, but having lower magic ability or agility) And there we got to Bell, who is possibly more that a human (Hermes calls him Zeus grandson), so just like the spirit's blood makes Welf able to create his op magic swords or Ainz magic wind, Bell could have a body that can go beyond the human/mortal's limit

[@tonthax]

Always thought that something like this or SAO would make an awesome mmo. Everyone starts as like a normal person with no skills and they have to work to impress a goddess or whatever and then eventually they get random powers and there are very few if any people who have the same skills. Feel like it would make you feel really special in a world of a bunch of people.

The power of friendship and rivalry is better than crunching the numbers when you wanna level up

[@veng3r663]

I took a LOT of the Level power difference from this series into account when setting up the level power curve in my homemade game world. So a Level 4 would kick the crud out of a Level 2, a Level 6 (FIREBOLTO !!!) would even moreso against a Level 4, and a Level 10 (out of a max of 20 Levels) would pretty much destroy any Level 6's...

[@inkblotCrisis]

So they're using Milestone leveling instead of XP grinding.

[@romonk5980]

Yes, the right leveling. :)

[@nullpoint3346]

Technically they're using both, XP for stats, milestones for LVs.

[@demon_with_coffee7319]

Kinda like prestige.

[@vinnycgaz1]

he could have 0 stats, if he did something righteous it couldve filled his falna "bucket"(the way the book explains it) and can level, or most adventurers get 999 stats but do nothing great and cant rank up. they say it in book and anime, to rank up, u need to go on adventures.

[@Amyante]

Hmm... No, it's kind of more like a rebirth system. Basically, after grinding enough to meet the prerequisites, you switch to an advanced class (think of this as a Prestige Class) and the stats don't show your TOTAL stats, but just the stats you've gained in that advanced class... in order to hit the next prerequisites. Because people in DanMachi assume the stats show TOTAL stats, they naturally assume gaining a levelup gives them a power boost since a freshly promoted "all I" can beat someone with straight 500s on a lower level, so they rush for levelups rather than grind out their stats more than they need to.

[@willie4888]

just take a second to compare 11:57 to the ones the green elf read at 11:40 there's significant decrease of stats in hestia's list. ex what I assume as agility is 1049 in hestia's list vs 1337 earlier

[@j-rod5930]

10:47 truth be told the way I interpreted interpreted someone's power was that their overall stats from each level times the level someone was at. If someone leveled up from 1 to 2 and each stat was 650 at the time of the level up then each stat is multiplied by 2. If they level up to 3 then their overall states would be multiplied by 3 and so on.

[@stalinsoulz7872]

From What I Think The Cause is: -Argonnaut "Hero/Skill" of Tales makes people Achieve Tremendous Boost -The skill i forgot which increase His Stats on Emotions and Desire. Two combination Skill Bell Has Give Him The Proficiency to Have A Monstrous Rapid Growth Which *Bare in Mind* that Argonaut is The Desire And Passion to be the Hero and His Other Skill That Hestia Concealed Boosts His Stat per Growth Leveling significant By Adding Factor of his Emotion and Dreams..

[@Exapico]

Literally two seconds into the video, and he shows Argo instead of Bell.

[@lexymordio1928]

Thank you for pointing this out only us gacha gamers will understand that. Also the reveal of Argonaut's story proves some of what is said in the video is wrong. If you take what is said in the video it just seems like Bell is special for no reason but we know the truth its because of his achievements as Argonaut he is granted special treatment not because of plot armor for the MC.

[@chriskell4854]

@@clearsky9109 Where was it mentioned about Herme's finding the journal? And what made the connection between Bell's soul and Argo's soul?

[@clearsky9109]

@@chriskell4854 in the very end of the danmachi movie arrow of orion that was what Hermes was referring too. That and for connecting the bell and argonaut souls I said more or less anyway. Because the story of argonaut wrote about his adventures in his journal/diary he wrote in which was true yet he has a clown personality I'm not saying their souls I mean their determination to be a hero is similar yet in a way you wouldn't expect. That and argonauts rival was the minotaur wearing a chest plate and an axe the first time argonaut went into the dungeon to prove the king of his generation wrong and the king died. The king believed sacrificing people by having that minotaur eat them 1 a year to calm his rage/hunger but truth was the king was controlling the minotaur with enchanted chains but the minotaur broke them when his determination to kill argonaut drove him and argonaut didn't kill the minotaur by himself he almost lost but the princess saved him after the fight tho the argonaut was blind from the minotaur slashing his eyes. The princess was there because she was going to be the next sacrificed next so they brought her to the dungeon. And the show at first kept hinting at the minotaur's

[@BurstFlare]

20:01 Yeah, turns out he doesn't have his showing at all times. It was invisible when he was attacking the Ishtar Familia until a drop of Ishtar's blood fell on it. I'm thinking his might have only been visable at that time because of Mind Zero, though I'm not too sure how that would cause it.

[@MrHachex10]

Im late but what a wonderfull explanation of my favourite anime power system. Funny thing is that Its only the surface. There are things left to consider. Let's do an analogy with games like wow/lol. Increasing ur stats would be like having items, while Leveling up is a sustancial power boost in stats base + level up your skills. A higher level player would almost always win a duel against a unleveled one unless the difference in items were massive (Lets say Bell can fight higher level enemies because he has a monster items adventage = stats to SS+) But Is it a chance for a player to outduel someone of BOTH higher level and itemization? YES , there is. PERICE. A pro wow/lol player could outplay you in a duel at lower level/items simply because of his pure ability at the game. In Danmachi Ryuu would be the best example of this, she hasn't upgraded her falna because she had no godess anymore so all this time training has served 0 for her in terms of leveling up=base stats and grinding stats BUT she is getting more and more combat experience, so she could fight stronger enemies out of pure skill. Now that S4 has just started, this is what Takemikazuchi explains to Mikoto, don't get obsessed about falna status and also focus on training your combat/magic techniques.

This is just like when your just lvl 1 and solo play in Dragon nest and set the difficulty to the highest it can get...

[@ghostdragon4164]

You might wanna remind everyone though that Firebolt came about due to Bell accidentally reading the grimoire that Freya planted for him. The anime should have showed this info on levels back in season 1. That was one of its biggest mistakes. Before videos like these came out the ones who know how the level system worked are those who read the LN and manga so they were saved the trouble.

[@janstastny5937]

So basically leveling is quite hard and complex. Unless you are Bell and "everything just works" out for you right when you need it.

[@Warduck102]

As usual, this is a superbly detailed video. However, may I inquire as to your source for Bell’s final status update at Level 1, which you show at 11:41 of the video? I’ve been reading the light novels, and I don’t recall seeing that final status update anywhere in those (though I do seem to have the final status updates for Levels 2 and 3, judging by Bell's final Agility basic ability scores that you provide at 15:27).To answer the question you asked in your comment, I believe Bell's Agility at least will become on par and then even greater than Aiz's sometime during his Level 5 progress. I'm not sure if it will be the same for his other stats, but I wouldn't surprised if his other stats did come to at least match those of Aiz when he reaches the upper end of Level 5, or perhaps even when he's midway through his Level 5 progression.

[@klauserji]

Rather than additive, like the difficulties increased for leveling up, the stat gains is also exponentially higher imo, so like maybe a 500 stats in level 2 is much higher if translated to level 1 stats
