Exp tweek?

Postby nanten » Tue Mar 25, 2008 6:32 pm

I upgraded some of my cons and I noticed on one that the exp cost for the other stats didnt go up. Was this a tweek cause last I remembered the cost went up for all stats except alt mode related ones when one was upgraded. Not complaining just wondering.

If your only stat is currently at 2, then, yeah, that's standard.

6, 3, 2 and 2? Then, yeah, the other stats should all be at 25K to upgrade each, having been that way from your last upgrade as well.

this is gonna confuse you all but i might as well try;

the cost of a stat upgrade is based on two things; the number of stats currently upgrades and the number of upgrades in a particular stat

if carry on upgrading a stat but it doesn't overtake or eqaul another stat no changes to the cost of other stats will occur

it's only when you change the order or of stats that a change in the costs of the other stats will occur

taking nanten's example;

he has (in order of most invested)
5 speed
3 strength
2 courage/firepower
0 INT/SKL/END/RANK
now if he invests in speed to six no change will occur as speed as it stays the most invested

however if he invested in onepoint in INT he would shift END, RNK, & SKL from being joint 4th most invested in to joint 5th, and thus increase their cost

Motto: "Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before?
Are you out there on the front lines or at home keeping score?"
The xp calculator can help make things clearer as it gives you a visual reference and shows what the cost is of many configurations over various alts.

Ooooh, I guess I just wasn't paying attention when I first joined cause I thought the cost went up on everything whenever you upgraded any stat. Thanks that cleared it up.
