Kmst 1.2.478 Question about Mp Boost

Description: Permanently increases your Max MP, as well as increase it based on your level.
Level 1 Max MP: +1%, MP Per Level: +25
Level 10 Max MP: +10%, MP Per Level: +70
Level 20 Max MP: +20%, MP Per Level: +120

This is according to Extractor over @ "The Perry".

Does this mean we're going back to the old ways? What I mean by that is, back in the day, you maxed the MP skill first to get the most MP for your leveling. I remember having to use snails for a few levels to max this bad boy out ASAP.

Or, have they wizened up and a formula calculates your total levels for you? I'm contemplating holding off making mages for this update, or just doing it.

I wouldn't mind an extra 24k MP at lvl 200.

I am also interested in this, just for gigs. ^^
But seeing the description, I am led to believe it wont only be given on level up, but also if you're already level 100, you'd gain another 12k MP. ^^

I wasn't talking about Int. I was talking about the skill. The skill changes with each point you put into it. The way it worked back before Big Bang, was if you're level 8 and you max that out first, you get more MP than if you max it starting at level 20.
I'm looking for anyone who has played the new test server who can test it out.

Well, I know 'how' to do it. I'm just wondering if this is what we're going back to. Or, if they fixed the formula to actually calculate the levels for you and give you the correct MP so that you don't have to max this first.

*Above* That's what I'm getting at. If anyone out there happens to be playing kmst and could determine this, that would be sweet.

It doesnt look like you would lose very much MP by dropping 1 skill point into Energy Bolt and then maxing MP Boost.
However, if it bothers you enough, you can always get a hold of a Sky Blue Umbrella or any other non-wand/staff weapon with Magic Attack and use Melee attack.
Mages have a weird formula where everything they do is based off Int--and wands and staves both have a damage penalty for being used with melee attack. One handed swords/etc don't have this damage penalty--so a good alternative if you really want to max MP Boost asap is to grab one of those and smack everything for a few levels.
