Why be a fool, when you can remain polite?

While using my desktop:
OS: Windows Vista
Connection: Dialup

level 76 stats:
str: 288
int: 87
def: 92
dex: 222

level up points placed on 3 str, 2 dex.

Resulting in level 77 stats:

str: 289
int: 90

def: 93
dex: 226


at level 78, try adding 3 str, 2 def.

Resulting in level 78 stats:

str: 292
int: 91
def: 94
dex: 230


After this, switched to my Laptop.
OS: Windows XP
Connection: dialup.

at level 79, try adding 3 str, 2 dex:

Resulting in level 79 stats of:

str: 293   (+1 from last level)
int: 94    (+3 from last level)
def: 95    (normal increase of +1)
dex: 234   (+4 from last level)

These records would indicate that somehow, any points assigned to str at level change get added to dex; any points assigned to dex at level change get added to int, any points assigned to def at level change get added to str, and any points assigned to int at level change get added to def.

Possible causes:

Operating system (vista versus xp) - possibly ruled out
Connection speed?
Level range?
Coding mistakes?
Labeling mistakes?
'Crossed wires'?

I hope the information provided is enough to give a start to resolving this problem.

try doing a few more lvls on XP

also record your HP so we have all the stats to mess with

and plz dont use yellow font it kills my eyes >.<



Keep an eye on this and if you notice it again try relogging, unequiping and requipping an item, it may be something as simple as the screen not refreshing properly, or it may be more serious like when it was compiled something screwed up. Hopefully its the prior and not the latter

Level 80 update:
OS used: Windows Vista.

Platform type: Desktop.

At level, attempt to add 3 str, 2 def.

Resulting stats:

str: 296     (+3 instead of 4)
int: 95       (+1 normal)
def: 96      (+1 instead of 3)

Also, I took screenies of both the level up screen, and the results.

have you tried changing equipment to force a refresh, and trying to relog?

Update:
from level 81-83:
Platform: Laptop
OS: Windows XP
Connection: Dialup.

at each level, added 2 str, 3 def.

Level 81 stats:

str: 300
int: 96
def: 97
dex: 241

hp: 311
mp: 879


Level 82 stats:

str: 304
int: 97
def: 98
dex: 244

hp: 315
mp: 884

Level 83 stats:

str: 308
int: 98
def: 99
dex: 247

hp: 318
mp: 889

At level 84, it seems to have reverted back to normal, possibly.

Level 84, attempt to add 2 str, 3 def.

Level 84 stats:

str: 311
int: 99
def: 103
dex: 248

hp: 323
mp: 894

Unsure what to make of the sudden 'correct' assignation of stat points. Possibly tied to level or time of day?

I did relog between levels 81 and 82, did not relog, but did re-equip between levels 82 and 83, and did neither of those between levels 83 and 84.. so literally no clue.

also, I just tested this on a new char:

from level 1 to 8, adding 3INT and 2DEX a level, it was fine

AFTER level 8, I was losing 1DEX and 1INT and they were going into STR..

on my warior, I was adding 2STR 1DEX 2DEF and a point from DEX and DEF were going into INT, but later on a point from STR was also going into INT as well..

im a bit of a perfectionist and I wasted my time on my mage doing really bad damage due to lack of 101 int, so thats why ive been thinking mages are underpowered, but this bug needs to be fixed really soon, I think its happening to everyone in a minor way and people arent noticing it

Yet another update:

Still on Laptop
OS: Windows XP
Connection: Dialup.

Stat points continue to appear to be adding normally. from level 85 to level 88, add 3 str, 2 dex per level.
Increases properly.

Level 85 stats:

str: 315
int: 100
def: 104
dex: 251

hp: 327
mp: 899


Level 86 stats:

str: 319
int: 101
def: 105
dex: 254

hp: 330
mp: 904


Level 87 stats:

str: 323
int: 102
def: 106
dex: 257

hp: 334
mp: 909

Level 88 stats:

str: 328
int: 103
def: 107
dex: 260

hp: 337
mp: 914

This is with attempting to add 3 str and 2 dex each level.  I am unsure if the bug will reappear or not.
I will continue to level and update as needed until the bug is fixed.

*edit: add link to site where I post my screenshots

The screenshots of levels up to 88 that I have taken can be found here:

yeah, this happened to me too, i tried to add 3 def , 1 str, 1 dex, and at first the stats added to the right places, but when the game was adding the +1 to all stats, the stats all shifted around in the same way liana was talking about. so i think the problem lies somewhere in the updating to add all the default stats at lvl up. for example, at the time i was adding 3 pts to my 56 def, and i saw the def go up to 59, but then when all the stats were flashing to add the +1 from lvling up, the def went back down to 56, then up to 57, and all the points i added shifted places in the same way liana mentioned (str went up 4 (not the 2 expected), int went up 2 instead of 1, def only got the +1 lvl up, but dex went up the right amount since i had tried adding the same amount to str that i did dex.)

ok, i was trying it out with Somebody, (thats the name of the char) and i apparently cant add to def on the char. if i add to def, the point(s) goes to str, when i add to str it goes to dex,  and when i add to int, i apparently lose the stat points.  like at lvl up, i added 3 int, 1 str, 1 def in an attempt to get 1 dex, 1 str, and 3 def two levels in a row, and no stats went up more than 2 at lvl up. since everything adds +1 at lvl up my int, str, def, dex, should be going up a total of 9 pts (5+ 1 for each stat) each lvl, but the lvls i put 3 into int trying to get them in to def they only went up a total of 6 points (1 for each stat+ 1 each in str  and dex). the dex and str went up as planned but def was only going up 1 a lvl no matter what i added to.  i dont think anyone in game believed me when i said it was happening either, a few people said  "thats impossible, that cant be right"  and others suggested i delete the char and trying remaking it to see what happens. i kept it so that i can try to test it more if i need to (but i wont be able to do testing for a week since im on vacation for a week starting tomorrow)

I seem to be fixed now...I guess it fixes itself over time..?

if possible, can my character, Gungrave, get the 40int put into str? thats where my wasted points went..

My character Paradox was affected by the same bug, so I made a new character Mikhail, and I checked it every few levels and the stats were adding correctly, so I didn't look as much, but I just now noticed that I got the bug again. I believe that it does "fix" itself over time, but I think I still have it. I've added 2 str 2 def 1 dex every level, but for the last 25 levels I have had the bug (I'm now level 81). So I am missing 50 def (very significant), and I have 25 extra dex and 25 extra int. I would really appreciate if my stats could be reallocated to what I intended for them.

Another update:
My character, Lianna, leveled normally up until level 112.
At level 113, the bug appears to have reappeared.

I attempted to add 3 dex, 2 str.

Instead the game added 4 int, and 3 dex.

I have the table of what stats I have at each level.. but it is in hardcopy.

More posting later as I see how long the bug takes to leave this time.

I had the same problem on my mage and, like Gungrave, all my int points were going to str. Rest were fine.

Bug hit at lvl 28. Still there at lvl 30. Stopped playing her until you fix this ;P
