[HELP] Building and keeping wellness
Emergy Institute
Hello UK
As you may know already, recent wellness changes have left many citizens either struggling to maintain proper levels of wellness or outright screwed because they messed up and forgot to heal at the hospital.
Hopefully this article can be of some use to our younger citizens.
Maintaining wellness: How to keep your wellness constant
In order to maintain a constant wellness you must create a balance between any wellness lost from Working and Training with any wellness gained from Housing and Food. Assuming you work and train daily you can use the following guide to determine how to prevent wellness loss during your daily activities. For the sake of simplicity wellness calculations are done assuming you already have an extremely high level of wellness (99) your actual wellness may be much lower, however once it is raised you may use the below guide to remain at a consistently high state.
To maintain a constant wellness you will need..
I work for a Q1 company
No House: You will need to buy Q4 food
Q1 House: You will need to buy Q3 food
Q2 House: You will need to buy Q2 food
Q3 House: You will need to buy Q1 food
Q4 & Q5: You will still need to buy Q1 food
I work for a Q2 company
No House: Eating Q5 food, you will still incur a 0.45 wellness loss per day
Q1 House: You will need Q5 food (0.06 gain)
Q2 House: You will need Q4 food (0.06 gain)
Q3 House: You will need Q3 food (0.06 gain)
Q4 House: You will need Q2 food (0.06 gain)
Q5 House: You will need Q1 food (0.06 gain)
I work for a Q3 company
No House: Eating Q5 food, you will incur a 1.45 wellness loss per day
Q1 House: Eating Q5 food, you will incur a 0.94 wellness loss per day
Q2 House: Eating Q5 food, you will incur a 0.43 wellness loss per day
Q3 House: You will need to buy Q5 food (0.08 gain)
Q4 House: You will need to buy Q4 food (0.08 gain)
Q5 House: You will need to buy Q3 food (0.08 gain)
I work for a Q4/Q5 company
If you are a younger player, you should not be working for Q4/Q5 company. Since maintaining your wellness has become more expensive, working in higher quality companies should be left to citizens with high production skills who already manage their wellness properly.
Note: Wellness calculations done through CCCP wellness calculator, calculate your exact wellness loss/gain here.
Thoughts, Comments, Etc.
- If high quality food is too expensive to justify a slight decrease in wellness ((for example, you work in a q1 company and eat q3 food; your expected daily wellness loss is only 0.47 wellness/day)) then gifting is a very viable option to help keep your wellness levels high. Do not become over reliant on gifting however, strive for balance.
- Wellness gains are a function of your current wellness, if you have low wellness you can expect to see a greater increase in your wellness than in the calculations above.
My wellness sucks, I need help.
I've seen some of this already. Recent changes in fighting have caused a lot of new players to get stuck without a place to heal after fighting for the first time. If you forgot to heal or messed up your wellness and need assistance please post in the comments below and I will do my very best to assist you or find someone who can.

Good article.
Just what we needed, thanks Maxfell! 🙂
just been playing about with that wellness calculator. if a new player doesnt have a house, works in a Q1 company, trains everyday,and eats Q2 food - the max sustainable wellness is 50.
if they eat Q3 food - its 83.5
since the highest wage for a Q1 is 1.75 ish (assuming they dont get fired for being below 90 wellness) and the cost of Q3 food is around 1.5, new players are getting screwed over royally with this change
Puzzled... for instance maintaining current Wellness,
Work for a Q1 company: -1 Wellness
Train: -1 Wellness
Eat 1 x 2* foo😛 + 2 Wellness
or have these rules changed, and if so, when? Still seem to be working for me in this way.
@ Michael -
The rules have not changed to my knowledge. Your wellness gain is a function of your current wellness so you can expect higher rates of wellness return eating the same food at a lower wellness level.
To respond specifically to your question, eating Q2 food does not restore 2 wellness if your wellness is already in the high 90's (as it is.) In your specific case, without a house working for a Q1 company and eating Q2 food, you should see a daily wellness loss of -0.93. A very slight decrease. There is a wellness calculator posted in the link above if you want to test it yourself.
@ rabit hutcho -
You're quite right in your calculations. Without a house, eating Q2 food and working for a Q1 company, wellness balance is reached at 83.5 wellness. The only other thing I would add is this - The rates of decline are extremely slow as you dip below 90 wellness. For example, it would take you 10 days to lose a mere 1.75 wellness given your assumptions about housing and food, something gifting can easily make up for without having to buy more expensive food.
I'm currently at 84.94. How can I get it back above 90? I can't gift myself can I?
@ cas3 -
No, you can't gift yourself unfortunately. However, you can donate gifts to someone and have them 'gift' them back to you. You can also donate them to an Organization, if you own one, and use that organization to gift yourself. I just donated 10 wellness to you, if you need a gifting partner you can send them to me and I will send them back 🙂
Awesome. Thanks very much! 🙂
how do you gift wellness? do buying gifts raise your wellness?
i stayed in london but, only just now have I been able to use the hospital, when I was in east of england I was fine, I have spent my gold on wellness packs for the past week
@ selder -
Gifts must be given to you. If you bought gifts and don't have anyone to 'gift' them back to you, you can send them to me and I will gift them back raising your wellness. You can also see the wiki article on gifts and gifting as well.

@ D0Lhades -
I'm sorry you had to buy Wellness Boxes, it's a huge waste of money to raise your wellness. The only reason to buy Wellness Boxes is if you're tanking in a battle. I sent you some wellness, I will again tomorrow as well.
i bombed as well unforunately, heard we got caught between changes and so lost out on both the hospital rules and the starting wellness, wouldn't mind a little help just to push me back in the right direction, don't mind donating money as well 😃
@ Bytes -
Hi. I've sent you 10 wellness for today as well as a message about moving to London. I'm afraid it's your only regional option since it's the only region with a Q5 hospital. Hope to hear from you soon.
I signed up just before the rules were changed so new players start with 100 wellness, but I didn't have time to level up so I could find out before the hospital rules were changed... So right now I have just above 50 wellness and can't afford good enough food to raise it.
@ Lee Devlin -
Hi. I've sent you 10 wellness for today. We will have you in fighting shape soon.
I am stuck around the 28 wellness mark and unable to raise it after 1 fight but not near a hospital to recover. Need the money from work to buy the food to raise wellness, then it goes down through work, etc etc etc. require a boost. Please help me.
@RobW -

Buy higher quality food. This program is outdated as they don't have gifts anymore.
