What type of Genie do you have? And what build? :o

WingedAmeh - Heavens Tear

I got a Dex Genie...better than a Mag one I guess. :<

I'll upload a pic of my fail-Genie later.

Edit.

Deceptistar - Sanctuary

Omg that genie is some kinda random stat based? D=
*is at work*

WingedAmeh - Heavens Tear

All of them are. You get a random stat-based Genie. :P

Zoe - Heavens Tear

There are 4 genies, each one has a main starting stat that it is high in. At first you get a random genie but then at the cost of 3 mirages you can pick whatever one you want.

The real random stuff is ever 10 levels. Every 10 levels the genie randomly gets 1-10 lucky points, which are extra stat points. It's not possible to reset the random points so for example you get 1/10, you are stuck with it. No way to reroll other than get a new genie.

Vit... Like it's gonna tank anything.

When I go to learn skills, I only see 5 skills.
Is that the same for every genie?
Are there more then 5 total skills for genies or what?

WingedAmeh - Heavens Tear

You have to get the skills to learn more skills. o.o

Also, how the hell do you obtain Chi Stones?

There are arrows on the bottom of the skill list, click them. There are TONS of genie skills and they are the same for all genies.


You get chi stones by decomping player equips.

It dont work o.O The page wont turn...


So do u only need spirit, coins and Element points to learn skills? The amount of dex/vit/int/str will only affect the skills itself and not the ability of learning skill itself right?

WingedAmeh - Heavens Tear

Right, Lady. Only Affinity affects the type of skills you can learn. Dex/Vit/Int/Str affects the skills themselves.

Ladydeadlock - Heavens Tear

So then my question is, how much does it matter which genie you use? I guess the green one, Longevity, that comes with 15 Dex sounds more desirable..? I really dont know which one to pick o.O

That's my question too, looking at the skills, it doesn't seem to matter what color of genie you have, just that that determines the starting attributes and skill?

Ladydeadlock - Heavens Tear

For some reason I can only see the first page, so all the skills there seem to be only affected by Dex.. Why cant I turn to next page?? b:sad
Anyway.... Uhm... I guess if U really want to have a white one, but will put most of stats to Dex, I guess u could deal with that u lose that extra 10 Dex if u go for white genie..

Edit: no sry my bad, seems it only get 1point/lvl. I thought it was 5.

If you want to see all the skills a genie can learn, right click your genie, then click the Afinity button, then Skill Inquiry.

Ladydeadlock - Heavens Tear

Just found it.. Dam, so many.. Still, they dont tell what stats is gonna benefit those skills =/ Guess just have to use my common sense lol..

Ryohki - Harshlands

lol i know. Trial and error i suppose.

Well, depends.

Dex Genie -- Built around being more successful with skills, longer duration of skills, and range.
Str Genie -- A more offensive Genie when using offensive skills.
Mag Genie -- More Energy regenerated and more skill slots.
Vit Genie -- Bigger Energy pool. (This would be needed because some skills require more than 105 Energy. [Genies have skills that require more than 105 Energy to cast.]).

Yes.

No. The maximum Energy pool of your Genie does.

They don't. Skills require Affinity to learn. NOT Stats. Str/Dex affect ONLY the skills themselves.

There's your answer.

No, it wont increase your vit.

STR: Determine damage out put of skills
DEX: Determine effect of skills -duration
WIL: MP pool
INT: MP Recovery and the skills learnable (each 50 INT = +1 MP recovery)

Walterthewf - Harshlands

Anyone know if you can see how the damage scales as you increase the level of it before you actually get the skill?

My Genie is geared towards being helpful in PVE. Later on, I plan to make a PK Genie.

have one but I'm at work

Sylvini - Heavens Tear

STR: Determine damage out put of skills
DEX: Determine effect of skills -duration
VIT: MP pool
INT: MP Recovery and the skills learnable (each 50 INT = +1 MP recovery)

All genie skills cost stamina, which requires Chi stones to replace, so all genie skills effectively cost money. From that perspective:

STR: More bang for your buck on damaging (and possibly healing) skills
DEX: More bang for your buck on durrational skills
VIT: Allows you to use more expensive (and powerful) skills, as well as chaining them together
INT: Allows you to use skills more frequently, and with more variety

Yes but you can restat the genies hence making the color more a matter of choice than function.

You can't restat down past their starter levels.
