Mag Raising

[gekko]

Ok, so I decided I wanted to build a sweet-ass mag for my HUmar. I had it all planned out up until level 10, when it evolved.

First of all, I was going to follow this:Earning recommended PBs

Estlla: Feed your MAG with a RAnger to level 10 and it will automatically acquire Estlla.
Pilla: Feed your MAG with any class to level 35, making sure that the stat order is DEX>POW/MIND.
Mylla & Youlla: Feed your MAG to level 50, making sure that one of the following situations apply: POW>DEX>MIND (B/R), POW>MIND>DEX (B/R, B/F), DEX>POW>MIND (A/H, B/R), MIND>POW>DEX (A/H, A/F), or MIND>DEX>POW (B/F).

So, I was good until the first evolution. I also wanted my final mag to look like this:

DEF 10, POW 125, DEX 40, MIND 25

Ok, with me so far? My plan was to start getting Dex up, so using this guide (http://www.planetdreamcast.com/PSOWorld/magguide.php) I decided to use Antidote and Antiparalysis for 4 feeding, going 2 of one, then 2 of the other. Then after that I would use Star Atomizers, to finish off the last few stats, and then start a new plan for getting to level 35.

Now, looking back at the guide may help you understand this a little more. Using Antidote should give me 5 Def, 10 Pow, 40 Dex, 0 Mind. Using Antiparalysis should give me 5 Def, 0 Pow, 40 Dex, 10 Mind.

Now, I'm going to explain my feedings, and how many points they should have when I'm done, also what level everything should be. This is where I had problems.

1st Feeding
2 Antidotes, 1 Antiparalysis

Def (Level 5, starting): 15 points
Pow (0): 20
Dex (1, hit 120 points): 20
Mind (0): 10

2nd Feeding
1 Antiparalysis, 2 Antidotes

Def (5): 30
Pow (0): 40
Dex (2): 40
Mind (0): 20

3rd Feeding
2 Antiparalysis, 1 Antidote

Def (5): 45
Pow (0): 50
Dex (3): 60
Mind (0): 40

4th Feeding
1 Antidote, 2 Antiparalysis

Def (5): 60
Pow (0): 60
Dex (4): 80
Mind (0): 60

From here, I was going to use Star Atomizers for the last feed. First one gives 25 everything, but then it changes to a Kalki, and from there, its worth 14 for everything.

5th Feeding
3 Star Atomizers

Def (6): 13
Pow (1): 13
Dex (5): 33
Mind (1) 13

Now, on that first Star I gave on the 5th feeding, I should've hit level 10, and evolved, but I didn't. I evolved with the last Antiparalysis on the 4th feeding, when I should've only been up to 80 points. What gives?

As far as I can figure out, my math is correct. Anyone got any clues what my problem is?

Dont know what your taling bout. But from what i read does it mean that a MAG can have more than one atack.

I don't tend to do the my mag plans with the numbers that each thing should give, rather with the levels themself. I can't ever get the mags the get the exact levels I want it to have until it reaches level 50 (and that's when you can start raising each bar individually, kids :D) Well, why are you trying to get is so exactly? If you were aiming for a Rare "equation mag" I would understand. Well, my advice is not to get to freaked out about getting exact numbers or try to get the numbers right after your mag reaches level 50. And as you just noticed, the mag guides aren't that precise. So, chill out and just try to not get the numbers go out of control and you will be able to fix the rest after level 50. It really doesn't matter for how much is POW higher than DEX and Dex higher than MIND as long as it is that way. And, for God's sake, you haven't missed for one bar, just a little of the bar.
