About this converter
Normal difficulty health runs 2 to 800 across Black Mesa and Xen. Snarks and leeches sit at 2 each, headcrabs at 10, houndeyes at 20, barnacles at 25, Vortigaunts at 30, bullsquids at 40, zombies, soldiers and assassins tied at 50 each, controllers at 60, grunts at 90, ichthyosaurs at 200, and Gargantuas plus Nihilanth tied at 800 each. Common guesses corrected: Vortigaunt 30 not 60, Gargantua 800 not 1,000, Nihilanth 800 not 1,000, with higher figures as Hard values. Gonarch, Tentacle and Apache bosses stay out to keep base enemies clean.
How to use it
Pick two foes and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 Gargantua against headcrabs to see the eighty to one gap. Difficulty splits ride in context per enemy.
Easy and Hard columns shift many rows, with soldiers at 50/50/80 and grunts at 60/90/120. Scientist zombies at 50 differ from later guard and soldier hosts. Values come from Combine OverWiki difficulty tables and the BoxFigs health and damage sheet cross-checked with StrategyWiki.
