Being a stat whore, and browsing through the stats of characters, I'm always on the lookout for an oddity in how the numbers pan out.

For example, by level 80/10, a Newman Wartecher's ATA surpasses a Beast Fortefighter's ATA.


Another by leve 90/10, a Cast Wartechers DFP surpsasses a newman fF DFP (and the ATP is not far off, if I am not mistaken).

A human's Wartechers TAP surpsasses a beast fortetecher around 85, and a newman guntecher's MST, surpasses a Beast's fortetecher by level 90/10.

Hold on, how do these numbers switch position with each other?

I thought you had some base stat that's the same for everyone at level X... then you modify by race %, then by job %. If one (race * job) combined modifier is higher than another, then that combination should ALWAYS be ahead or behind....

Perhaps theres the fact of Gender crossing, A male FT might be lesser then a Female GT. <.< gotta take these things seriously

nope. in most cases, the multiplier is not high enough. Consider the ATA multiplier for Wartecher...it's 80%. It's 100% for fortefighter.

BUT

if you take one of the more accurate races, then the "20%" isn't enough to overcome the natural gains as you get higher and higher in level.
