Cuz i was reassigning my points and my int wouldnt go over 18. I was like wtf? So i started spamming out points on my wisdom expecting it to stop at 18 as well...but it didnt. Long story short. I fuxed my build. It was disappointing...but also mildy hilarious.

The reason for this behavior is that because the order in which you assign stat points matters (e.g., CON added at a lower lvl adds more HP than CON added at a higher lvl), when a player is reassigning stats he has to follow as if from character creation. So the first 25 points (24 right now, actually, on account of a mistake) have to be assigned before any one stat can go above 18, because that's the number of points you have at character creation: your "lvl 1" stats.

Yeah. I figured that something to that degree was the case because i had remembered reading about it, but couldn't quite remember it at the time. So do you think there is any hope of me fixing my stats soon? Cuz i wouldnt want to keep leveling and have my build all out of whack if the characters are going to move over to the Beta, but now that i think about it i could just calculate what i wanted in the long run and build up to that over time, or just wait for the next update, but both of those options just arent too satisfying.

If you're that concerned, make another character and I can help you get to like lvl 10 or so in no time. :twisted:

I don't have an easy way to let you reassign stats right now (Karl might), and we do need to make this behaviour more clear in-game for future stats re-assignments--I've had to explain it several times now, as it's not exactly self-evident--but right now it would probably be easiest to do as Sex4Cash suggests and just re-create and hang around for a high-lvl to get in game and lvl you. I'll be on in a little this afternoon and probably tomorrow evening as well and will be happy to help you out.

Guys, if you could help him out if you see him before I do, it'd be appreciated. Thx.

Maybe after a stats reset there should be a message karl that says "please reset your base stats then you can continue with points in the correct spots" or somethihng. :P

seeing as this will probably have to happen in the future, we'll be trying to figure out a simple way to make this happen.

Yay for the stat reset, and yeah some kind of reminder for new people would probably be a good thing to implement. I find it very easy to click myself into a fuxed build. Hah. And to answer your question Joe, yes, I'm already planning. I like to look ahead. Oh, and I'm level 11 now. Yay.
