[dev1072] Abolishment of physical lvls.

[Aguilla]

the most exciting part about this to me is that now each class will have its own stat point allotment, should be interesting to see how they incorporate customization into that in the future.

one thing im not quite understanding is the whole "stat points will have less of an impact as players increase in level; however, the benefits granted by gear will be increased" thing. what exactly does this mean?

[Archadius]

It means at lvl 10 3 STR will be a huge difference in dmg, and at lvl 48 it will be peanuts.

Bonus stats on gear as a whole though will increase overall efficiency.

i figured it was somethin like that. i suppose they will be doing a massive gear overhaul seeing as how even high rank gear now gives puny stat bonuses.

Keep in mind that potency is going up. That +8 STR and +4 DEX will be huge with the coming changes imo.

So here comes the fun: Gear get changed, now this and that item ain't good anymore, that item which sold for 10k gil is now the best in the game, rage rage rage. Me? I can't wait to see how they do these changes ^^ Right now 90% of all players got a crab bow :/

Yeah but they aren't retarded. SE will still keep Verdant bow as the best in game atm.

I think it basically means that as you progress your class, you won't always get stat increases. There would be a level where you wouldn't gain any STR, so gear is where you'd want to make up for any points you could want.

I am a bit confused on the "Automated character development"; will it be like FFXI when you gain a level that your attributes would change automatic. That we don't have control over it because if that is it then this is going to suck.
