Mag: For a Fonewearl

[_Ted_]

I am going to make a Fonewearl character, but I want to make a mag that works well for a Fonewearl. What type of a mag should I make and what stats should I try to get on it? I have a unopened Jack'O Lantern and an unopened present (from a Santa rappy), so I have access to pretty much any mag cell. Thanks for your help in advance.

I would go for the highest mind mage that you can possibly create to compliment the naturnal casting abilities of the FOnewearl.

[Lone_HUmar]

I'd say basicly DEF and MST mostly DEF cuz, FOnew has alot of MST by herself and casting ranges, you just need smething to aid you when enemies get close to you.

[Blue-Hawk]

Highest legit mind mag I was able to get for my fonewearl was 173. But I'm sure there's better. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

I think the best is about 185

if you're going to play as a FO, the basic 5 def is enough since you're going to not get hit unless you get stuck in a corner and are out of tp...

go for 5-10/10/20/160-165 in your mags stats, but im not all too sure about how the growth rate on FOnewearls are at higher levels

195 if you want to get technical.

5 def, 195 anything else

That would mean it's hacked.

[Cengah]

Having a pure mind mag isn't the best thing to do.

With a FOnewearl you already have high MST so the next best thing is to top it off with def.

You won't need and DEX or POW since FOnewearls would be useless with either.

So the best thing to do is have about equal more or less def and mst.

As for the mag type. Well i don't know anything about mag cell's considering i don't play online. So just go with whatever fits your needs.
You won't need anything with Shifta and deband considering your FOnewearls will be stronger in the long run, but any mag that instantly cure's or revives you would do fine.

uhm, no.

it just takes careful feeding...

either that or its a system mag...

[lain2k3]

system mags are the only ones that can get more than 186 in a single stat.

Id say make it 30-50 def and 150-170 mind.

o.0? okay then, guess i should stop trying to make mine then, already at 176power, but meh. i can deal with some extra dex http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

yeah, vulpes made some max single stat guides a while ago, they're under mags guides.

hmm, guess i didnt see them. oh well.

monomates get expensive after awile... x.x

[shinto_kuji]

i'd do the highest mind possible, but not a system mag. they have no pb so... anyway im guessing the highest is 185 (havnt checked guides, but thats the highest ive ever gotten) with 15def. not only does it go hand in hand with fonewearls basically only-tech-casting abilities, but since its a new char, it will make it easier to learn techs. my personal opinion as for what mag would be either a mag that gets all invinc. boosts (such as soniti) or something uber cute on a fone, like angel wings.

[Myopathy]

or something uber cute on a fone, like angel wings.

Actually, a full spell-casting force almost never gets to use PBs. Not unless they purposely let themselves get beat up and/or wear a PB/* unit. If you play alone, then you'll never need PBs with a force. If you play with others, then it's a good idea to have a PB or three to combo or at least donate with. Just remember that a single Mylla & Youlla is only approximately level 25, at best stats, and the offensive PBs are kinda worthless to a solo force who can dish out far more damage with spells. If you're worried about surviving, I suggest wearing */HP units. HP is worth a lot more than DFP, as a lot of enemy attacks do set amounts of damage or are effected by elemental resistances instead of DFP.

Anyway, for a force MAG I'd suggest going mostly MIND. You'll need that a lot more than a small amount of DEF. Remember that 1 MIND = 2 MST, while 1 DEF = 1 DFP. You're getting a lot more bang for your buck with as much MIND as possible. And since a FOnewearl has a max MST of 1750, you're not likely to max that out. At least not until you reach a pretty damn high level. My FOnewearl, currently 174, is still quite a ways off of her max MST, and she's used quite a lot of Mind materials and has a MAG with 175 MIND on it. O.o

[ILLI]

how about a 50def 150 mind any color sato to go with the colors of your fonewearl??

[starhealer]

I currently use an Ila with high MIND and DEX. I don't know enough about any of the rare MAGs to give you an opinion on them.

I don't see the point in giving high DEF to a MAG for a FOnewearl, since she shouldn't be in the thick of battle unless you're going melee with her, though. And even then, high DEF could be her downfall, because if she doesn't get knocked down she's pretty much a gonner. DEX, on the other hand, is helpful for when you will need/want to use guns.

That's my take on it, anyhow.

[Ketchup345]

You could make a Sato or Nidra with the stats of:
DEF: 5
POW: 0
DEX: 45
MIND: 50

The DEX would help if you use TP steal items such as the cards.

Sato and Nidra are useful since they give you invincibility at every occasion.

[Black000Moon]

i mostly play solo offline and i do fine with 2 mags. I have an all around good mag Bhima lvl 200 because its a FOnewearl I uh tried to make it even stats i gave it 65 mst, 45 of the rest. Just wanted a balanced one. Then right now I'm currently raising a mind mag which has like 120ish mst so far.. But for me things are alot easier with my Bhima because FOnewearl already has enough mst.

[Nai_Calus]

The Mag my FOnewearl uses, which serves her quite well, is a Soma with the stats 5/0/35/160 and the PBs Estlla, Pilla and Mylla&Youlla. It does invincibility all around, is dual-shoulder, and looks good... The problem with this is that it's a B-type ID Hunter MIND>DEX>POW Mag, and thus she is unable to maintain it herself and it has to go to my HUmar or my HUcaseal for synchro raising. If you don't mind the occasional mag kicking-around, though, I'd go with a Soma like mine, just to be different. >P All I ever see are Satos, Nidras and Mag cell Mags. Never once seen another Soma. *hugs Soma* Maybe I should make a guide on it, it takes some careful feeding to keep the DEX down to leave it at 35. ^^;

[capin_bucky_ohair]

a 5/0/45 or 50/150 or 145 isn't a bad idea for a Sato or Nidra

[PaleKid15]

My FOnewearl's mag is 30/0/0/170. It works very well on my 127 FOny.I would reccomend 25/0/25/150. I have found myself casting 3 foie's to kill something when after 2 it has 50ish HP left. But, crappy ata= no melee, at all.

you wont be meleeing with a mind mag anyway...melee for forces requiers its own mag., pow/dex mag, and a separate mind mag.

meh, I guess having 2 mags would be better. I just don't like the hassle of switching mags to kill something. Plus, the already rare PB for forces would become non existant. Changing mags empties your PB meter. But still, 2 mags is probably a better idea.

[Benzine]

My FOnewearl uses a 10/0/5/185 mag cell mag. I used vulpes's guide ( very well done http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif ) to get the mag to its 3rd evolution then mag celled it when it got to lv 100 because it's a much better feeding rate after the mag cell.
My take on the fonewearl is that she is inherently a tech-only force. Her strengths are her naturally high mst so I went with a way to accentuate these strengths and not make her something that she is not meant to be. At level 101 with 2 god/minds, the mind mag and a summit moon she surpassed 2000 TP. She's a terror offline and does well enough online plus she is set up to max evade, def and mst at lv 200. Then again, if I had gone the route of a 5/0/45/150 4th evolution mag then I could use some geist mechguns to save on some cash. Either way would be suitable methinks.
