I wear full armor and VK's and I need to know, which is more vital to lasting longet in combat


Willpower allows for quicker recovery but HAM costs kill (over 50 mind per UH2 if I have min focus, and no buffs)


Focus is nice, and if I pump it much higher, HAM costs wont even touch my mind, but when my mind does get hit, there is little chance for recovery


I am leaning toward focus, but all the "mind" temps i see have higher willpower than focus

You need Master Docs to buff you. Or better yet be a Master Doc yourself.


All my points are in my mind, plus I have mind buffing food and drink plus Spice.


By myself I can get my mind up to 3000 with secondaries above 1500. With a Master Entertainer buff...who knows how high they can go? I have not had a chance to experiment with a CAntina buff yet.


There is no correct answer for your question. WIthout the buffs you need to have point in all your other stats. With buffs however...all you points can be shifted to your mind pools.


If you are determined to go sans buffs, then put all your available points into Willpower and take off your VKs.

isnt focus the one that regenerates mind?

Could be, I dont have them memorized.


The mid bar of the group reduces HAM movement cost and the lower bar of the group decreases regen time.

Willpower is mind regeneration (bottom one). Focus is mind use efficiency. If you're non-human you probably want to max these. It's a little tougher to pick with the bugged unlimited human stats, I'd go 1100/500/1000 or something like that if I wasn't a Doctor. Depends on a lot of factors and there's no right or wrong answer.

I chose focus over willpower, the regeneration doesn't matter so much when you lose lots of mind making specials. It will just make it faster to regenerate it after the fight, but during it won't really change much.
