    Genie will be level 1, I assume. Considering you can actually trade genies, I imagine a lot of high lvls will level genies to 20-30, then abandon them if they don't get max stats and start over. So, you can actually get a genie that's high lvl from another player, it will already have it's points distributed though and most likely will suck, so don't do that.

    How much EXP is needed to level my genie

    40% of charactor EXP. For example; your charactor needed 1 mil EXP for next level, your genie will need 400K.
    These genies are gonna be hell lvling for higher lvls with millions and millions of exp -.- even with the SP usage....
    In other words you will see Lv70s walking around with Lv10 genies while lowbies have higher lvl genies.

    Not really. If the genie gets Your xp*100% and it only needs 40% of your lvl, I can kill 1 mob and have lvl 4 genie, then kill 1 more and have lvl 6. If it works like pets and the genie gets 15xp for every kill, then maybe, but you will just have high lvls sit in room 4 of the cube and lvl their genies. Either way, it won't be hard to lvl at all, especially when you consider I have 15-16m of sp to spare when i have maxed skills.

    your genie dont gain anything from u grinding , u GIVE ur own EXP / SP to it to level it up

    edit : and theres exp penalty transferring exp to lower level genies which is quite heavy :)

    Something that goes away when you die isn't the same as it dying.


    Simply put, character dies, genie goes away just like a pet goes away when the character dies.

    The description says;

    40% of charactor EXP. For example; your charactor needed 1 mil EXP for next level, your genie will need 400K.
    But from your explanation a lv1 genie only needs 22exp?
    Level
    1- 55 -22
    2- 220 -88
    3- 495 -198
    4- 880 -352
    5- 1400 -560

    I think what im wondering is if the genie, which is Lv1 to start off with, starts at the CURRENT characters 40% exp, or the 40% exp rate that has been used by the player since their own Lv1

    See, I am thinking if you need 100xp to lvl at lvl 1, your genie will need 40xp to lvl at lvl 1, no matter what lvl you are. It really wouldn't make sense for a genie to need 40% of your character's lvl to lvl up at every lvl, that would mean to go from 1-3 I would need to grind over 1 lvl on myself. Might as well recreate chars to grind genies up super fast cuz they will gain a lvl every kill.

    Genie start at L1 and need 40% of L1 character EXP etc. if you have millions of SP, you can level your genie fast.

    But, since genie goes with random stats, I can see lot of genie being abundant due to poor random stats.

    To explain it better.


    A genie of level X needs 40% of the XP a character of level X would need to get to the next level.


    So, if a genie is level 19, it will need 40% of what a level 19 character would need to get to level 20. In this case a level 19 character needs 22325 XP to level to 20, so a level 19 genie would only need to gain 40% of that amount or 8930 XP, and to level to 21 from 20 a genie would only need 40% of the amount a level 20 character would need to gain to level to 21 or 40% of 25000 which is 10000.

    So:
    Genie 19 -> 20 : 8930 XP (40% of 22325)
    Genie 20 -> 21 : 10k XP (40% of 25k)

    Since you can "feed" your SP to the genie for it to level, does anyone know the ratio. Does 1 spirit give 1 xp to a genie? Or more/less?

    For a genie the same level it should be 1 Spirit = 5 XP, but there's a penalty on XP for genies much lower level than the player.

    Cool thx. I'm wondering how much spirit i'm gonna need to level my genie to level 80 (for example).
    Guess we'll have to wait for official news regarding the XP penalty, how much it is, etc.

    So does anyone have a list of genie skills to accompany this thread? I dont mean the ones the GMs were on about because kantorek or whoever posted it seemed unsure of the info he was giving out. Any MY players who know about what the skills do?
