Thread: Basic Information Confirm or Correct?

Greetings,

Being completely new to Bio-Engineering, I have no idea what the old system was like, so I’m learning over from scratch. I’m sure there are others out there who have just picked up the trade as well, so I figured it couldn’t hurt to rehash/get confirmation on some of the basic information. Here’s what I found in my testing, if you spot something wrong please correct me!

Aggressiveness controls Fierceness & Power, which in turn controls Damage, Attack speed, and chance to hit
Mental controls Intelligence & Cleverness, which in turn controls Mind points
Physique controls Hardiness & Fortitude, which in turn controls Health points, Armor, and Resistances
Prowess controls Dexterity & Endurance which in turn controls Action points
Physiological controls Dependability & Courage, which in turn controls the Control Level

Corrections and additions welcome from more experiences BEs!

we're still debating all this.



CL? still a crapshoot. place your bets, and roll the dice. remember, the house always wins.


resists seem to be affected (if only slightly) by ALL the slots. physique seems to be the primary, prowess AND aggression seem secondary, and mental/psych seem tertiary.


special attacks seem to come from aggression and psych. maybe prowess?


ranged attacks? mental


HAM seems to be a phys/prow/ment set.


attack speed and to-hit probably have as much to do with psych (maybe mental?) as aggression.


armor seems most closely tied with physique, though it may be attainable with other stats.



add the variable effects of the clone skins, wacky experimentation, and numerous crit fails, and you have a thoroughy confusing system.

I can confirm the HAM thing, I get the 3 best samples I have, put the best one in phy, the second best one in prow., and the last in mental, and I ALWAYS get health higher than action, higher than mind.

just wondering about the CL though (?)
I guess it has something to do with dependability and stuff like that...

I dissagree at least on one point! 100% of the time My special attack have been exactly from the Aggro slot.


From my experiments and documentation Resists just simply seem to come from an average of all slots.


CL is the only thing I have no hope of controling or predicting as of yet!

Greetings,

I feel really silly - I left out the most important part - all of that is in relation to experimenting, not the DNA slots. I know the whole DNA thing is still being unraveled, which is why I figured this was basic stuff, hehe. My mistake *Blushes*.
