    Yes, that's next on my list.
    A bit occupied at the moment but I will get to it as soon as possible.

    Hello there! I have a question about this. I stayed far away from washing all my time here but doing it now, but the one point I'm a little lost on is Step 6.

    I get the int till 200, then after 200 base int, I'd use the 290AP (from the 58 levels listed) and put those 290 AP all into the MP stat?

    Once that's done, & I reach 120, I understand using the 196 AP on the Int into my main stat, but do I use the 290APRs to transfer MP into HP? & if so, would I lose all those 290AP for my Str stat?

    I guess I'm confused on how I get my AP from MP, to HP, back to Str.

    Thank you!

    You only need 1 AP inside HP or MP to be able to continuously transfer between the two until one of them reaches max or minimum value.
    So if 290 AP was invested into MP for MP washing, you can remove 289 AP from MP back into STR, then leave the 1 AP and keep APRing MP into HP. Once you're done with all washing, remove the 1 AP from HP or MP back into Str.

    You mixed a few things up, step 6 is MP washing.
    To MP wash you need to put your fresh AP from leveling into MP, and then reset it to main stat (STR).
    To understand why it's done and for more information you can check this guide:

    Is it worth to Dragon Strike + Snatch if Snatch is not maxed or should I Barrage + Dragon Strike (Maxed).

    (When hitting 3 targets)

    Sorry, but I have no answer to those questions.
    I didn't do the calculations myself and referred to charts other people made.
    If anyone else has the answer you are looking for - please feel free to comment.

    Having that said, I assume Barrage + DS should not be used for 2 targets unless both skills are maxed.
    As I mentioned - the combo is only 4% stronger than Barrage+Demo, so it should lose it's relevancy even with 1 less SP.

    Also please note that while Barrage + DS will be the best combo for 3 targets without snatch, DS only will beat it when hitting 4 or more mobs.

    Hi everyone,
    I've been getting a lot of washing questions in-game lately, to the point where I would have to spend a significant portion of my free time calculating if I answered them all.
    I appreciate you reading the guide and having questions, however I'm afraid I can't answer washing questions which are basically asking me to do your own calculations for you.
    Please check all the other attached guides, understand the hp formulas and do the calculations by yourself.

    For any other type of questions, please feel free to keep pming me in-game and sending forum dms.

    Thanks for understanding!

    Hi buddy, I'd like to continue my bucc, I quitted in 2016 I guess, it's lv 144 already but I didn't wash, with hp quests it has 11.1k of hp, I'd like more hp with deez method but I don't think this is completed after step 5, when should I max hp improve again?
    Thank you so much in advance

    1. Use an APR: -STR + HP
    2. Repeat stage 1 for the desired amount of times (you will gain 20 HP eventually for each time you repeat that)
    3. Use 10 2nd job SP resets to reset improve MaxHP to 0
    4. Use an APR: -HP + STR
    5. Repeat stage 4 for the same amount of times as you did in stage 1

    * Please note that for this method to fully work, you need to have 1 point from the 2nd job sp pool put into a 1st job skill - Double Shot, as explained in the SP builds section.

    Buy 10 more SP resets after the final stage and reset it back to max.
    It's not complete because it was meant for level 200.
    Having that said, you should probably just do HP quests/olaf nowadays, unwashed characters are not too hard to salvage.

    Hi Donnie, going to start a fresh Bucc in the future, what do you think is the cheapest path of getting to ~19k HP by level 135?

    Updated:
    - Removed the 19k and 30k HP washing steps from the guide, as they were not accurate.
    - Changed the HP washing section to explain the HP thresholds only, while not providing guidance with the washing itself.

    Work in progress:
    - Improving the Horntail section to be more optimal.
    - Adding Rose Garden.
    - Improving Von Leon section further.
