Question Regarding StaminaFollow

evey class and every level is different I think.

roughly 2 hp per sta I guess, depends on AA.

Maybe he doesnt have access to the stuff that makes it easier to max STA up. Not everyone has it maxxed out by then.

Heck, at level 70, mine isnt maxxed. Well, only 2 points shy of it but still.

OP IIRC 1 Stam equals 3 hp. YMMV depending on level

I think for a tank class in the 60-70 range, it's closer to 5 HPs per point of stamina. Honestly though, I haven't really looked recently, so that could certainly be off. I'll see if I can remember to check the next time I'm on. I do know that I usually assume that approximate ratio when guesstimating which item will result in more HPs, and I haven't noticed ever being wrong. For instance, and perhaps unintuitively, a Valorium Ring of Gallantry, will actually give me more total HPs then a Dragorn Commoner's Ring. Dragorn has +95HPs with no stamina. Valorium is +65HPs with +8stamina. At 5HPs per stamina, that works out to 65+40=105, which is about what you end up getting.

Again. I haven't actually played around with the values in a while. It's just something I noticed when I was comparing those two rings specifically at one point.


It's also often *harder* to max out stamina the higher in level you get. Your max values keep going up, even without spending AA points. I'm maxed out currently at level 66, but not by much. If I was level 70, I'd could certainly take advantage of a couple more nice +sta items, no problem. And obviously, if I spend AAs, I can make use of even more.

I'd get the +12 to each stat aug at the very least. At what? 90 crystals? It's probably the best bang for the buck. Work out the others based on what you could get otherwise, your level, other gear and aug options you have available, etc. There's no hard and fast rule here.

Hey. That actually reminded me of something. I know that stats give different secondary effects (like stamina to hps, or int/wis to mana) based on where you are in the range. Does the same thing happen for AC? I seem to recall usually getting some amount more "actual" AC increase then the raw amount on a given item. So I'd equip an item that added like 10AC, but actually get more like 15 or 18 total AC increase.

Just noticed this weekend when I swapped out a couple pieces of gear that I was getting the exact amount of AC difference. Might have just been a roundoff, since it wasn't a huge difference, but it kinda struck me as odd.

Thanks for the info all.

Their are 2 major reasons why its not maxed. First being that I left back when velious had come out and basically have had to re-equip everything in my inventory (I had given most of it away). Kind of a slow process for a casual gamer. Second, I'm not really up to date on what the max stats are for my level or where to get upgrades to get there. There are so many new zones and new items its hard to trace out a specific upgrade path. I do read these boards often and try to get what I can by myself but I just wanted to get feedback from the community as far as where I am right now and where I'd like to be or where I should be. I'll have to get a magelo so I can post it and maybe then ask for your input.

What should my sta/hp be at 62? Unbuffed I have around 3.7k hps atm. This seems extremely low when I see some people here with 10k+ hps unbuffed. Is my hp at 62 that bad? Elemental armor is out of my reach as I'm in a family guild and we dont have the fire power to do the pop flags. I'm working on getting almost all Consecrated Plated armor from DoN but each of those only have between 70 and 90 hps per piece plus stats.

odd. are you losing a massive amount of ac or something?

gained ac as far as I know always follows your class multiplier, at least it did on a warrior up to 2500 ac.

YAY TYPOS, I meant losing a lot of agi =p

While I don't know the specific numbers, I remember reading a while back that warriors and knights get some sort of AC bonus.

For instance like Gbajj said earlier if you equip an item with AC 20 on it, your actual AC will increase more than 20. I think (this was a while back, so don't quote me) that I read it was like raw AC X 1.5
