Why is my MST going up...?

Postby Kirst » Sun Jan 30, 2005 1:17 am

I've got a level 90 HUmar, and for the past four levels, my ATP hasn't been going up by 4-5 like it normally does, but rather by 3. My MST and DFP are both going up at about 3-4, and when I got to level 90, my MST went up 4 and my ATP went up by 3. I'm really confused as to why my ATP suddenly stopped it's mass growth, and I'm getting MST instead...<p>Anyway, can someone explain why this is happening? I recently equipped a Savitri mag, could that be the problem? I don't much care for MST, seeing as my spells are already level 13-14 and some basic spells at 15.<p>Thanks in advance.

No, this isn't a "problem"... rather, it's a reflection of the growth of your class. The HUmar class is rather balanced with emphasis on ATP and MST. The way your character is leveling up is just that growth. For a while, your ATP's growth was more prominent, and now your MST's growth will become more prominent, for a time. <br>To my experience, all classes encounter such a curb. For instance, for the first 60 levels or so, my HUcaseal's EVP was the most prominent in growth. However, in the last 30 levels, her ATP growth has risen above her EVP growth. <br>Nothing you can do will affect your stats at level up. It's just the class you chose.

I figured it was something like that, I just hadn't experienced any growth curbs yet... thanks a bunch for answering!

I never really paid any attention to it.<p>I just kept on equipping stronger items, feeding my mag and annihilating Rag Rappies in The Fake in Yellow on Normal mode. With Rafoie and Grants. :D

you better start liking mst. it makes your resta better. if im at like, under 200 hp, 3 restas doesn't fill me. so ya, start liking mst, it'll help you when it comes to the more damaging enemies. it also helps your jellen/zalure, something you should start using, its a humar shifta/deband. also, mst is more tp for more resta and more jellen/zalure. trust me, mst turns quite helpful. i have a level 152 humar, im considering finding and equiping a god/mind.

Yeah, I've been using Zalure for quite a while... I think I started at lvl 40 or something...<p>A bigger resta will be nice I suppose...

ya, its good that you realized early on jellen/zalure is good. i just cast them aside as patetic reject shifta/deband. i realize now that i made a mistake in thinking this.

I've never really used them. Still, I have them at pretty high levels now, and I'm struggling in Ultimate Mines, I'll give them a try.

yes, jellen helps alot because you can't really stop them from hitting you, so you might as well make it do the least possible.

The only thing that makes me wish Humar had shfta/deband is that you are constantly casting jellen/zalure alongside resta and that drains tp surprisingly quickly.

ya, i guess the dreamcast humar's had shifta/deband but they were unfairly strong cus they had hunter power with shifta/deband and jellen/zalure

Even though on Dreamcast they had Shifta/Deband, Ultimate Mine was still much more difficult than on GameCube.
