Hey guys, so these are my current stats. I'm lvl 135 now and was hoping to stop the washing process at this level because I have the desired hp I want (12k with equips) and want to wash out all my excess mana and int. However, I think I miscounted how many lvl up AP points I put into HP and now when I recalculated it, I don't have the same amount of AP into luk/dex a normal thief would have without HP washing. @Shiyui said that from lvl 1-135, you get 693 AP (although I calculated 689, might be wrong). My current MP is 2390, so I can currently wash 29 times with this if I'm not mistaken (29 AP here). I have 65 base dex (61 lvl up AP here), 231 base int (lvl up 227 AP here), and 362 luk (358 lvl up AP). Adding all these lvl up APs together, I get a total of 675 AP, not 693... How am I going to recover the missing 18 AP? I have a total of 360 int by the way with int equips, so I can wash 3 times per lvl up. Do I have to lvl up 6 more times with my 360 int, so I can -mp/+luk 18 times? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
According to my math you should have 689 level up AP at your level but I might be wrong : (135-1)x5 +9+5 +5 According to your screenshot you only have 646 level up AP , means you are missing 43 ,I assume they are in HP atm ? If that's the case you can reset 29 of them now and reset the rest after a few levels of leveling with int
My mistake, I was thinking of the base int I had on my level 200 bishop in old source where there was no AP limit of 999! I had 1018 base int then. Forgot you were accounting for luk and dex! Okay so there’s 1030 AP on a level 200 character. This includes your base stats at 4. With 5 AP per level up and your 5 third and fourth job advancement AP received, 200-135=65. 65*5=325. 1030-325=705. So you should have 705 AP total. From your str, dex, luk, and int, we subtract 705-4-65-362-231. So you have 43 AP in either HP or MP. You have 352 washable MP now. So you can AP Reset 29 AP right now. This means 14 AP are still in HP. You need 168 washable MP to reset these 14 AP. So level up 5 more times with your 360 int and you’ll be able to use AP Resets to free that 14 AP. And you’ll have all your AP accounted for! Edit: Going to double check after what Nessi said. Busy irl so might take a little bit to redo! Edit 2: I’m sure that I did it right. There’s definitely 1030 AP total at level 200, 16 of which are fixed (4 base stat minimum in 4 stats). As a result, there’s a total of 1014 AP on a level 200 character than a player must assign, and these are the AP that function as fresh AKA level up AP. However, to account for missing AP at any given level, it’s simpler to find out the total AP a character should have (not total level up AP) and add up the character’s base str, dex, luk, and int. Any disparities thus must mean that there is AP in either HP or MP. Both the third and fourth job advancements give 5 AP upon completion. The 1030 AP total and 1014 level up AP total at level 200 both account for this 10 AP gain. Since you have completed both third and fourth job, I scale down the total AP you should have from the level 200 1030 total AP. From level 135-200, you will level up 65 more times. Each of these level ups give 5 AP. So you still have 325 AP to gain. The total of 1030-325 to gain means you should have 705 AP currently. I’m certain of this. So adding up your base str, dex, luk, and int, you have 662 AP in your four stats. The discrepancy is therefore 43 AP. Taking your current MP of 2390 and subtracting it with the minimum MP for your level which is 2038, we have 352 washable MP. At 12 MP cost per AP Reset, 352/12=29. So you can use 29 AP Resets now to -MP +luk. This leaves 14 AP trapped. To reset the remaining AP, we do 14*MP cost per AP Reset 12 and end up with 168. So you need 168 MP more than what you have as your current washable MP. So with 360 int per level up, this is a gain of 36 MP per level in addition to your natural MP gain from leveling. So it’ll take you 5 more level ups to get the washable MP required to reset out the 14 AP that will be remaining. At that point, use 14 AP Resets to do: -MP +luk and you should have all the AP you should have in your four stats!
Thank you both, I understand now! So I will have to reset at lvl 140, 5 more lvls of leeching at petris
