How much does a point in mag actually give, in terms of matk, mdef, regen, mp, etc? Is anyone aware of any formulas out there?

    Taken from Cayeon's guide on Attack Clerics:

    >>> Exactly how much base magic attack does MAG give?
    It depends on your level and your equipment magic attack. Basically it goes like this:
    (level+equipment magic attack)/100
    For example, if you have 550 equipment magic attack at level 50, every point in MAG will give you 6 base
    magic attack.

    >>> What is the difference between equipment magic attack and base magic attack?
    Equipment magic attack: You get it by adding all +magic attack giving equipments, i.e. weapon, rings,
    soulstones and bonus stats.
    For example, if your weapon gives 500-650 magic attack, your rings 100, your soulstones 15, and your
    bonus stats 25, your equipment magic attack is 640-790.
    Base magic attack: This is the value you see under Magic Attack in your character window. You can
    calculate it with the following formula:
    (1+(MAG/100))*(level+equipment magic attack)
    For example, if you have 1100-1500 equipment magic attack and 500 MAG at level 100, you’ll have
    around 7200-9600 base magic attack.
    You see, it’s not a simple addition. MAG actually acts as an amplifier.

    I'm not sure, but I checked a couple Cleric characters:

    MAG 53 140
    MDEF 14 36
    REGEN 4.5 9

    From that I would guess:
    MDEF = MAG/4
    REGEN = 2+(MAG/20)

    If some more players want to check that against they're own characters, we could confirm it ...

    Note that I'm sure non-magic characters don't get a base of 2 MP regen - so it's probably more like 1+(MAG/20) + (1 if Wizard/Veno/Cleric)
