how many points in MAG will give me 2 MP regen per sec?

i like to know this for my archer, maybe weird, but in case you dont get it, its for the natural wings

so how many points in magic will give me a total of 2 MP per sec as regen?
i have opinions, but those are probably forbidden on these forums

    Please do not put points in the MAG as an archer just for those wings....

    I agree with the poster above. the only aerogear in the game that requires you to have any points placed into mag is the elf natrual wings. Placeing points into it just for these wings is a complete waste.

    If memory serves me, it was something like 20-24 I believe.

    I agree that it is a complete waste of points, but I also have to point out that the above posters were less-than-helpful, for not coming forth with the information you sought after. Hope this helped.

    Adding to what The_Massacre said, please be aware you get a free set of eagle wings through a quest at level 30, those don't drain mana if I recall correctly =) That is why the others said it's pointless to put points in mag for an archer, especially when it will severely gimp your damage/survivability.

    The best thing you could do is look for LA gear drops with +mag added to it (as an add on, make sure it has all the elemental defenses and proper phys resistance first and foremost)

    But, no one is stopping you from trying, and if you really want to, go ahead. Just be aware of the consequences that you will take more damage and it may be harder to survive after you do that.

    I had the same question as he a year ago, I tried for fun, got to 3x, got mid-pink named, after a few "stealthy" (flying > ground transfer) kills. After my luck ran out, I just got wtfpwned all day long b:cry, but i'm alo not a fan of the long range (archer) damage conversion on here, and it's not my best suited class for pvp either. b:shockedb:shockedb:shocked

    Vit gives HP regen.


    The rates are generally agreed to be 0.5 regen/sec for every 10 points of stat - added to your class base.
    Which I've seen claimed is: 2 HP/sec, 1 MP/sec for physical classes and the opposite for the casting classes.

    (Doubled while meditating etc.)

    Vit and Mag, both are useless for Archers. Go 1str 4dex every lvl if you don't want to be a fail player and read the Archer guide. You don't need Vit, after mid lvls, mobs won't even reach you if you go 4dex 1str and have a decent weapon (TT or Legendary). If you get Vit, mobs will reach you because you can't kill them fast enough and your extra HP goes bye-bye in a second. Think with your brain, the more damage, the better Archer. For more HP, you can refine your stuff and put Citrines in sockets, you can easily double your HP at endgame just with these things. Also, you get a crapload of potions at lower lvl stash boxes, don't be afraid to use them. You won't need many pots after mid lvls, if you build your Archer right.

    And about the wings, use the free lvl30 one (it does not suck your mana) or buy a cash shop one for ingame money. The slowest wings are like 1mil only. Wings are cheaper than stat resets in the long run. If you put Vit and Mag you will eventually regret as you start to understand this game.

    I don't think there is a "right" way to build an archer, nor is there such a thing as a "fail" archer just because you messed up your stats. A fail archer should be one that does not know how to play the class and gets others killed and themselves killed all the time. That is an issue with mmos now. People just tell you what is the right way to do things and build your character, when it really should be a chance for you to experience things on your own and play it your own pace.
