Mag issues o_O

[NetNomad]

Apparantly I didn't know as much about mags as I thought I did. See, I planned out the mag for my new FOnewearl up to its rare form. I had even created dummy characters with "extra" costumes, over and over until I got the color I wanted: dark green. Eventually I plan to make it a dark green Sato. The plan would go something like this:

1. Get Estlla. Give mag to my RAcast at level 9 to do this.
2. Get Pilla. Turn it into Ashvinau to do this (DEX highest)
3. Get Golla. Turn it into Kumura to do this (MIND > POW > DEX)
4. Use the formula for Viridia/Bluefull/Redria/Whitill, which is DEF + DEX = POW + MIND (the only group who can make a Sato)
5. Hand the mag to a dummy Force/Female character with one of those IDs. Create Sato mag.

So today I fed the mag up to level 35. POW and MIND were both at 7, DEX was at least 10 or 11. And it turned into..... a Mitra?? That's a Ranger mag, not a Force mag. Of course, it learned the photon blast I wanted, but now I'm not sure what to do with it. I want to get Golla last... but am I following a Ranger formula now? This goes against everything I thought I knew about mags; I figured that, the person who feeds the mag to the level in question (10, 35, 50, 100, etc.) would determine its form at that point. And it was my FOnewearl who fed it the item that put it at 35.

Another complication: if I am following a Ranger formula, am I also using my RAcast's ID? He's Viridia, which puts him in group A, but my FOnewearl is in group B. Both Ranger groups can get Varaha, which learns Golla, but which formula do I need to go by:

MIND > POW > DEX for group 1... or
DEX > MIND > POW for group 2?

Final question: what if it never reverts to a Force formula? What if, even if I gave it to a dummy character to raise to 100, it became a Pushan instead? How far does my RAcast's influence over this mag go?? :S

your racast's influence ended after he fed it to level 10. the mag takes the class and ID requirements from the character that's currently feeding it. i have no idea what you did with your mag. if your pinkal fonewearl fed it there's no way it could have become a mitra, because those are only lv 35 ranger mags. well it learned the move you wanted so just go with the flow...

does the character costume affect the color of special mags, though? i thought that was only for regular mags that it changed.

What id do is feed it up to levle 99 then give it to another char. and then feed it to 100 it awalys works for me try it.

The last thing I fed it was a Trimate. It boosted both DEF and POW one level up each, taking it from 33 to 35. It had been equipped by my FOnewearl since Level 10 and has been a Kalki from that point on.

well it learned the move you wanted so just go with the flow...

But I have to plan the next level up based on what formula I'm following... and I don't know which that is anymore...

If you give your character one of the "8" or "9" costumes, you can get any color, including the special ones. I had to recreate the same dummy HUmar five or six times before I got the dark green mag... then I put it on the FOnewearl.

just try the way you were planning on earlier (3. Get Golla. Turn it into Kumura to do this (MIND > POW > DEX)). also a virdia ranger can use that same formula to get Kabanda which also learns golla, so you can try giving the mag to your racast to do it if you want.

[NetNomad]

Has anyone actually had this problem before? I don't want to leave this to chance, because it would be a rather big inconvenience to get myself a new dark green mag and spend time re-raising it.

So today I fed the mag up to level 35. POW and MIND were both at 7, DEX was at least 10 or 11. And it turned into..... a Mitra?? That's a Ranger mag, not a Force mag. Of course, it learned the photon blast I wanted, but now I'm not sure what to do with it.

That is absolutely normal.

1st and 2nd evolutions are linked, but it will turn into Kumara at Lv 50.

Don't worry, 2nd evolution mags all get the same PBs, that's why you got Mitra, and the right PB (Pilla).

But if you get a Ranger mag at Lv 10, you will have a Ranger mag at Lv 35, nothing to worry about.

[whiteninja]

i had no idea that the first to evolutions were linked like that. thanks for the enlightenment.

yeah samed thing happened to me also. it was like level 49 and i fed it and it wasnt supposed to turn into a Kumara but it did so i followed its feeding chart to get it to the required levels it needed to turn into a sato. at level 99 i gave it to my blueful Fo i cant remember the spelling for the famale cat force person thingy and it turned into the sato i wanted
which i am going to trade to my friend for a level 50 everything black sato

[NetNomad]

Well, that's a relief. Thanks.

Um... offtopic: Kefka, what's that weapon in your sig that looks like a blue version of the Red Saber? o_O
