Alright, I've been doing a little research and number crunching, and I'm coming up with formulas to max characters, or if they can't be maxed, how to raise their stats for them to be as effective as possible. I got the info on the God/Units in my topic on the Item/MAG/etc. info board. ((Which, by the way, we still need to find out the stat gains from God/Legs and God/Ability there, thanks! http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif)) Anyways, as I make up these formulas, I'll post them here. Anyone else who's come up with character maxing formulas, feel free to post them here as well. Although, make sure it's for GameCube, and that if you used any God/ Units, you have their stat gains correct. Oh, and take note, I'm only going to be using three slots on any given character. Why? Because that leaves one slot open for the oh-so-valuable God/Battle or God/Technique Units. ((Actually... I'm not sure, does God/Technique raise Techs over their max level? i.e. you have a level 30 Foie and a level 29 Barts, and you equip a God/Technique, will your Foie be level 33 and your Barta level 32, or both just go to level 30? Because if it's the latter, then feel free to use the fourth slot on God/ Units for FOrce characters...)) So anyways, I started with a RAcast. I would've started with a HUcast, but I already screwed mine up. But I just started a RAcast. So here goes:
---
RAcast
-Stat differences-
ATP: 491
DFP: 101
ATA: 25
MST: 0
EVP: 73
LCK: 90
-Needed to max-
MAG: 5DEF, 175POW, 20DEX, 0MIND
Mats: 46POW, 23DEF, 36EVA, 45LCK
Units: God/Pow, God/Body, God/Arm
-Technicalities-
ATP: 350ATP from MAG+92ATP from Mats+50ATP from Units=492ATP=1 point over=491ATP=MAXED
DFP: 5DFP from MAG+46DFP from Mats+50DFP from Units=101DFP=MAXED
ATA: 10ATA from MAG+15ATA from Units=25ATA=MAXED
EVP: 72 from Mats=1 point under
LCK: 90 from Mats=MAXED
-Comments-
That Maxes EVERYTHING except EVP, and that's only ONE point below max. RAcasts aren't exactly known for their EVP in the first place, though, so does 1 point really matter? Also, his ATP goes 1 point over, which is a slight bit of a waste, but ATP and EVP can only be increased in 2-point increments, so it was one or the other. I personally think ATP is more importaint to a RAcast than EVP, though, and especially if you arrange your MAG, Mats, and Units before you reach level 200, in which case, I think that extra ATP would help more than the extra EVP. The best part of all of this? You still have one slot open for a God/Battle. But if you REALLY want to max yourself, you could use that last slot for a /Legs Unit... If someone could confirm how much a God/Legs and a God/Ability adds, I might actually be able to completely max a RAcast with a God/Battle space to spare. *Shrugs* This works just fine for me, though, and God/Ability's are rare as bloody hell. Anyways... That's just the start! I'll do more, and like I said, if you have any, please help! Just for refernce, I'll post the stat gains of God/ Units here...
God/Pow: +50ATP
God/Body: +50DFP
God/Arm: +15ATP
God/Mind: +40MST
Special thanks to VulpesMundi and Celes for some of those! ((And if I got your name wrong, or forgot your contribution, feel free to smack me and I'll correct it as soon as possible!))
