Verity Companion progress calculator

What this tool does

The progress calculator estimates how long your Verity Companion runs will take to reach your next milestone. The calculator runs entirely in your browser — no inputs are sent to a server. Use it to plan the grind loop described in the how to progress fast guide.

How to use the calculator

1. Pick your current companion from the dropdown. The list mirrors the Tier List hub.
2. Enter your average run time in minutes. Use the timer maths from the how to survive jumpscares guide if you do not have a baseline.
3. Enter the Ink target you want to hit. The Codes hub lists every reward that grants Ink.
4. Tap Estimate. The calculator returns the number of runs and the calendar time you should expect.

Calculator maths

The calculator uses the following constants, verified by the wiki team against the live Roblox client:

• Ink per clean run: 800–1,200 (companion dependent).
• Sidequest bonus per run: 250.
• Average companion run time: 25–35 minutes.
• Average jumpscare tax: 90 seconds per room.

These constants are updated whenever a Roblox patch changes the economy. The Updates hub logs every refresh.

• Codes hub — claim rewards that boost your Ink per hour.
• Tier List hub — pick the companion that matches your target time.
• How to progress fast — the grind loop the calculator estimates.

Companion-specific Ink rates

Each companion earns Ink at a different rate because their dialogue branches unlock different sidequest triggers and ending bonuses:

Companion	Ink per run (avg)	Sidequest uptime	Best for
Empath (Seren)	1,100	High — auto-triggers lantern prompt	Pacifist route grind
Skeptic (Vex)	1,000	Medium — probe required	Full clear grind
Analyst (Tess)	1,200	High — auto-triggers all prompts	Puzzle-heavy speed run
Guardian (Brick)	800	Low — locks Room 4 echo puzzle	Survival-only runs
Trickster (Loki)	900	Medium — risk tax reduces uptime	Hidden room speed run

These values assume the repeatable sidequest is cleared twice per run. The how to complete sidequests guide documents the optimal clear order.

How the jumpscare tax affects your estimate

Every jumpscare adds 90 seconds to your run time on average. The calculator factors this in as a flat per-room penalty. If you are using Empath (Seren), the tax drops to 60 seconds because she lowers the jumpscare threshold. If you are using Trickster (Loki), the tax rises to 100 seconds. The how to survive jumpscares guide explains how to manage the timer for each personality.

What the calculator does not estimate

• Account suspensions. The calculator assumes you play within the Roblox Terms of Use.
• Cross-save unlocks. The how to find secret rooms guide documents the cross-save items, which the calculator treats as flat bonuses.
• Event rewards. The upcoming events page documents the seasonal bonuses, which the calculator does not include by default.

Safety reminders

The calculator never asks for your Roblox password. If you find a tool that does, report it through the Official Links hub.

Limitations

The calculator is a community tool. The wiki team verifies the maths but cannot account for individual client variance. Treat the output as a planning estimate, not a guarantee.
