Technique Units on Non-forces

[Olga-Rappy]

I recently made a RAmarl, and with a bit of twinking, I got her to level 50 and VHard.

Now that her technique levels are getting closer to 20, the RAmarl maximum, I'm wondering - can a few technique units raise them past level 20, as long as it doesn't exceed the actual maximum? (Level 30)

[Soukosa]

Tech units won't raise the tech levels past the class's limit.

[Dillon]

I'm pretty sure they can..I dunno if Technique units stack or not, but I do know that they won't raise above the limit for the class..

If possible, if you have them, let her try on a God/Technique or two and see what happens. I'm pretty sure they'll stack.

I only have 1 God Technique, and my highest techs are level 14 Rafoie and Shifta...

So youre saying if a force had a lvl 28 tech and a 29 tech if he had two wizard/tech. thing both spells would only be 30? instead of one being 30 and the other 31?

That's right.

[Olga-Rappy]

Yes. I've confirmed this myself... What I'm saying, is if you tried that on a HUnewearl/RAmarl with Level 20 techs, would you get Level 22 techs, since that's a legal tech level?

[Soukosa]

No. I've tried it before on a HUnewearl of mine. It'll take you up to lv 20 techs and not go any further.

[Olga-Rappy]

Darn.. Thanks for saving me the trouble.

Yet another unit made relatively obsolete at higher levels. Darn.

I think the unit is good the way it is. If you could raise Techniques past the users limit, the game wouldnt be balanced. Imagine a level 42 Megid...
Honestly, i prefer balance.

Too bad you can't do this,lol or else you would get male HU/RA with level 27 techs and female HU/RA with level 32 techs,and the FOs with uber-level 42 techs.

[Olga-Rappy]

That's not what I'm saying... What I'm saying can be summed up like this:

There is a max tech level of 30. Agreed? Spells cannot exceed 30.

Certain classes have further limitation on their techs, like 15 on male non-forces or 20 on female non-forces.

Now, a unit can raise a tech level past its normal level, but not past the 30 limit (I, and others, have checked.) But, unless I'm mistaken -which seems unlikely to various others- Tech disks at level 30 can't be used on... say.. a HUmar, because it's not class equipment. ST seems too lazy to write seperate code just for forbidding high-level techs to Hunters and Rangers. So, if this is true, using a Technique unit would fulfill the intangible prerequisite, unless it were to exceed 30.
