The project

About Absy Labs

A free, community-built, reliability-graded combat simulator for Kingshot Expedition battles.

Why it exists

Most Kingshot "calculators" copy one simplified damage formula off a guide and never say where it came from. This project started from the opposite premise: write down every mechanic, mark exactly how it was verified, and refuse to ship a number that's secretly a guess wearing a confident font. The full approach is documented in a reference spec, Escaping the Cargo Cult.

The reliability tags

Every mechanical claim on this site carries its grade — Confirmed in-game, Probable (reproduced by community testing), or Speculative (inferred from the shared engine lineage). Nobody else does this; it's the whole point. When something is uncertain, we say so instead of filling the gap.

Who

Built by Absy — states 1163, 1182, 1510. Free, open-source and ad-free. Bug reports, weird edge cases and "this should be confirmed, here's my screenshot" arguments are all welcome in the Discord.

Sources & thanks

The engine descends from KingsGroup's State of Survival combat model (the open-source SoS engine is the most reliable reference for the confirmed math). Hero and skill data cross-checked against the community: kingshotdata.com, Daryl's kingshotguides.com, Frakinator, MTwyDev, and the r/KingShot crowd who keep reporting numbers.
