Job Efficiency Calculator

Example: 9 Energy at level 5

With the archived inputs, the Cash objective selects three runs of Shake Down the Newsstand: 750 Cash and 21 XP. The XP objective selects two runs of Fence Fake Watches plus one Keep Watch: 700 Cash and 22 XP.

Both plans use all 9 Energy. The XP option exchanges 50 Cash for one additional XP in this particular model. Neither is a universal recommendation for your account.

These are recalculated examples using the published archive, not current gameplay tests.

How to read the result

Job counts describe an allocation, not a guaranteed best execution order. Cash and XP are totals from the entered rows. Energy left is permitted: the model does not force an unaffordable run or spend Energy on a zero-value action just to empty the bar.

The Cash objective breaks ties using XP. The XP objective breaks ties using Cash. Remaining ties prefer fewer runs, then less Energy spent. Fewer runs is a tie-break, not proof that a plan takes less real time.

Stop and recalculate when the inputs change

The plan freezes the unlocked set and each row's cost and rewards. It does not predict a level-up, unlock another Job halfway through, add regeneration, or increase rewards as mastery changes. A short remaining bar is easier to model than a long sequence that changes your account state.

After a level-up, a changed reward, a new restriction, or a changed Energy balance, update the inputs and calculate again. Do not follow a long printed allocation after its assumptions stop matching your screen.

What the result excludes

Item drops, hidden pity, mastery formulas, action duration, PvP losses, bank fees, property income, code rewards and later-city Jobs are outside this objective. No guaranteed drop count or fastest-level-up time is calculated.

The model assumes each enabled Job can be repeated with the entered constant cost and reward. It is not a claim that every live account can repeat the whole allocation without a state change.

Energy budget questions

Why can the plan disagree with the Cash-per-Energy table?

A ratio ignores the leftover budget. Whole runs must fit together. With the archived level-5 inputs and 10 Energy, two 3-Energy rows plus one 4-Energy row total 820 Cash; repeating the 3-Energy row three times and spending the last Energy on Keep Watch totals 810.

Does Most XP find the fastest way to level up?

No. It maximizes the entered XP total within a fixed Energy budget and fixed unlocked set. It does not know your level threshold, time per action or the effect of unlocking a new Job during the plan.

Why did the planner leave Energy unused?

The remaining amount may be too small for an enabled Job. It can also preserve Energy when all additional options have no benefit under the stated objectives. Unused Energy is not automatically an error.

Can I change the archived values?

Yes. Enable or disable the included rows and edit their unlock levels, Energy costs, Cash and XP. The result then becomes an edited-input calculation. It does not mark those changes as verified game facts.

Is 10,000 Energy the game's cap?

No. It is this tool's input limit. The calculator does not establish an in-game maximum.

Calculation method

For each enabled Job, let its Energy cost be e, its Cash reward be c and its XP reward be x. Choose a non-negative whole number of runs for each row. The sum of all run costs must not exceed the entered Energy budget.

For Most Cash, maximize total Cash first and total XP second. For Most XP, reverse those priorities. If both totals tie, prefer fewer runs and then less Energy spent. Exact remaining ties use a stable row order, so the same inputs produce the same output.

The implementation compares reachable totals for every whole Energy amount up to the budget. It does not select by the best ratio alone. Because each cost is positive, every candidate allocation can be built from a smaller-budget allocation without circular dependencies.

The archived input rows are listed on the Jobs page. A mathematical check of those rows is not a fresh observation of Roblox values.

Why the best ratio is not always the best use of four Energy

At level 5, the archived base rows give Shake Down the Newsstand 250 Cash for 3 Energy, or about 83.33 Cash per Energy. Fence Fake Watches gives 320 Cash for 4 Energy, or 80 Cash per Energy.

The higher ratio wins on efficiency, but not necessarily on the payout before you stop playing:

With exactly four Energy and no regeneration, level-up refill, mastery change, or other bonus during the sequence, Fence pays more in this example. The remaining Energy matters because Jobs cannot be bought in fractions.

This is arithmetic using the published starter rows, not a new test of today's game. Per-run comparison ranks individual rows; Energy budget plan searches allocations within its fixed inputs.
