And assuming there aren't enough "hits" left in the dr activation to get to the bishop. Even if a bishop is built for pure HP, it'll be nigh impossible getting to 50k. Ref hits straight through magic guard and goes right for hp.
You have to remember they only get about 10 hp per AP point. so all your base AP into HP is still only 10k base hp. Warriors are almost certainly going to exceed whatever you end up with, so even the idea of making them last in line to be hit by dr is probably infeasible.
I don't know if we could come up with a hard and fast minimum. It seems to be a fairly linear relationship with damage range. If you want to heal more than 2k to the whole party, you need a significant amount of int/matk. Also, despite all my bishop's hp, the limit on my survival is my max mp, so don't discount that. Unless you're really going hardcore and plan on cubing for %hp in addition to adding AP to hp. If you just go mgless to empress thats an option... but not a particularly tantalizing one - having to heal after every hit isn't practical during zombify. Or during the horribly long stuns several enemies inflict.
Lastly, the solution to the bind hitting dr problem is to swap the order. Instead of binding before you crash, crash before you bind. Crash isn't an attack so it can't trigger dr.
i never said anything about the damage of reflect, just who it targets.
you have a party of 6, they are:
bishop: 10k hp
hero: 20k hp
DrK: 30k hp
paladin: 40k hp
mercedes: 70k hp
bishop: 80k hp.
mercedes is spamming her hurricane, the other six are standing next to her. empress uses DR.
>first arrow hit->who has least HP of the people in the map?->bishop 1 only has 10k
bishop 1 receives 50k damage->dies
>second arrow hits->who has least HP of the people in the map?->bishop is dead, hero has 20k
hero receives 50k damage->dead hero
>third arrow hits->who has least HP of the people in the map?-> bishop and hero dead, DrK has 30k hp
DrK receives 50k damage->dead DrK
>fourth arrow hits->who has least HP of the people in the map?->bishop/hero/DrK dead, pally has 40k hp
pally receives 50k damage->dead pally
>fifth arrow hits->who has least HP of the people in the map?->merc has 70k, bish has 80k
merc receives 50k damage, merc now only has 20k hp
>sixth arrow hits->who has least HP of the people in the map?-> merc with 20k
merc takes 50k damage->dead merc
>seventh/eight/ninth arrow hit, however caster is dead, bishop with 80k hp doesn't receive any damage.
^ that's how her reflect works.
