    WARNING: THIS IS GOING TO USE LOTS OF MATHS AND NOT FOR TL; DR USERS

    Summary:
    As a new leecher, i always curious how many mana bull it takes for me every hour so i decided to do some research, hopefully it will help other leechers (those who curious about it) too.


    Something to Note:

    - This section is applicable for mana bulls (heals 60% of MaxMP) only, or you can alter cuz you using others.
    - This does not talk about magic required for 1 hit, etc
    - Arch Mages can be differ from this calculation because they use a 3rd job passive skill called "Element Amplification" causing the MP cost 2x times more if the skill is maxed, so alter the answer for "Step 4".
    - I do not include damage you will be taking via Magic Guard cuz it's pretty variable and hard to create additional calculations for it.
    - This is much more applicable for low level leeches (Red Slime, GS2/Slimy) only where you don't need to use magic guard vary the calculation
    (for Bishops only (where they could use heal skill)).
    - "Casting every seconds" should be a average number (around)

    (Example: You cast every 3 seconds on first area, moving to another area takes 5 seconds and cast every 6 seconds on second area then number should be 5)
    - I'm not sure how much MP does Bliz and Meteor cost cuz i'm using BBB Hidden Street as reference, let me know how much do they exactly cost below, LOL!


    Steps:

    1) Prepare calculator, piece of paper and a pen (or notepad & calculator on computer)
    2) Write down how many MP you have (character) whatever with Hyper Body or not.

    3) Find the 50% of your MP
    (Assuming you use 60% potion only once you reach 40% to use the potion efficiently, but maybe use once 50% to be more accurate for this calculation, Example: 16000 * 50% = answer 8000)
    4) Now find out how many times the skill cast you need to reach 50% of your MP
    (Example: Gen1 (2100 MP cost per cast) will use 4 times (from full MP, 8400 MP cost total) to reach "Step 4 Answer" (of course you use the potion once you reach it))
    5) Multiply "Step 4 Answer" by <interval in seconds between casting>
    (Example: 4 * 5 = answer 20)
    6) Divide 60 by "Step 5 Answer"
    (Example: 60 / 20 = answer 3)
    7) Multiply "Step 6 Answer" by 60
    (Example: 3 * 60 = answer 180)
    8) Congratulations! Now you found out how many MP potions you need to use per hour as leecher!

    More Examples:
    Bishop: Gen30, 28000 MP, casting every 5 seconds
    - Gen30 costs 3500 MP per cast
    - Casting every 5 seconds
    1) 50% of MP is 14000 MP
    2) Takes 4 times of Gen30 (14000 MP total) to reach 50% of MP
    3) Multiply 4 by 5
    4) Divide 60 by 20
    5) Multiply 3 by 60
    6) 180 Mana Bulls needed for an leeching hour
    Arch Mage (I/L): Bliz20, 25000 MP, casting every 4 seconds (same as (F/P) with Meteor20)
    - Elemental Amplification Skill Level: 20 (Maxed, uses 200% of MP)
    - Bliz20 costs 6800 MP (3400 * 200%) per cast
    - Casting every 4 seconds
    1) 50% of MP is 12500 MP
    2) Takes 2 times of Bliz20 (13600 MP total) to reach 50% of MP) (yeah, pretty expensive, MP wash should be considered for this)
    3) Multiply 2 by 4
    4) Divide 60 by 8
    (if decimal .5 or more, count as 1 (7.5 = 8))
    5) Multiply 8 by 60
    6) 480 Mana Bulls needed for an leeching hour
    Bishop: Gen1, 10000 MP, casting every 6 seconds (A.K.A new leecher)
    - Gen1 costs 2100 MP per cast
    - Casting every 6 seconds
    1) 50% of MP is 5000 MP
    2) Takes 3 times of Gen10 (6300 MP total) to reach 50% of MP)
    3) Multiply 3 by 6
    4) Divide 60 by 18
    5) Multiply 3 by 60
    6) 180 Mana Bulls needed for an leeching hour
