    Default Does anyone else think this is stupid?

    Why is it that your god can set all your stats perfectly to 25 and you can still see this:
    You raise a level!! Your gain is: 18/393 hp, 2/315 m, 8/340 mv, 6/68 prac, 0/0 trn.

    Now my little character has seen 2mana !!6 TIMES!! and all his stats were set perfectly the entire time. Does anyone else see this as ridiculous? it shouldn't even be possible....

    I find actual real life luck to be a factor for mana. Not as much for hp.

    I tend to agree, if your stats are set properly level gains like that really are annoying. Once or twice is one thing...6 times is a damn shame

    I find real life luck tends to affect how often we get afw killed, not so much level gains....

    Feel it is stupid all you want, but so long as mana gain is determined at level (as it is now), the calculation will not change.

    The reason for that should be obvious: Changing the calculation will screw characters leveled before the proposed change was made. Mana for characters made after the change will always be higher.

    For all the complaints I've heard about it over the years, it is at least calculated the same for previous characters as it is now.

    I think the gods have tagged all your characters as "unlucky".

    naaa, most of my best kills were pure luck, I'd say if anything they've tagged me as "god toy"
