Introduction~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well, here is the third release of this doc. I've decided to name it1.0 because, although it is not quite complete, my CTS is acting up andI'm feeling cranky. Plus, the few things left to add are relativelyminor.

The things I'm still missing are:

--statistics on HP/SP healing items

--base price for all items--formula for shop price--range for all items


2/31

--get rid of all of the 'VERIFY' tags by verifying the info--maximum effective levels for the rest of the specialists--something about equip change (and its potential for abuse)--clean up the C code that implements the level gain formula that's sitting on my hard drive and add it in, or translate it to perl.--the rest of the hospital items

Although I plan this to be my last big revision for some time,contributions are welcome, and I'll attempt to give ego tags (credit :-)to whatever I've gotten from someone else. Thanks go out to djpubba,JungleJim, Scy046, Luvnuts, James, Richard Mon, Ryan Puckett, Zepy,Tioaz, all the people on the GameFAQs message board, and anyone else whoI forgot to thank.

Basics~~~~~~~~~~


3/31

Unlike in most RPGs, items in Disgaea are complex entities in their ownright. They have a level, a rarity, may be inhabitted by Specialistswhich increase their power, and might be more or less powerful at aparticular level because of actions taken while leveling them. All ofthese factors contribute to their potency. In addition, characters getdifferent levels of benefit from the same item based on a number of

factors.

Every character can hold four items. One must be a weapon ('Wpn'), andthree must be from the 'Etc' category. Monsters can only useWpn-Monster weapons, and humanoids can use any Wpn except Wpn-Monster.Every item that a character holds can increase ten statistics of thatcharacter, and may have other effects:

Rank/Name HP SP ATK DEF INT SPD HIT RES MV JMP39 Accelerator 200 1000 3 3040 Cosmic Blade 300 300 2000 300 300 300 300 300

Above are the statistics for a very good pair of shoes and a very goodsword, when the items are normal rarity, with no specialists, at level0. In practice you will never find items that have no specialists tostart.

The only other type of item has the designation 'Item' and is neverequipped on a character: it is used by a character from inventory.These items are generally curative (restoring HP and/or SP), althoughthey do have other uses.

Aside from characters, you have two places to keep items: the Item Bagand the Warehouse. The Item Bag can hold 16 items; the Warehouse canhold 256. The only times you can access items in the Warehouse are when

using 'Equip' or 'Item' from the castle menu, or while buying/sellingitems at the shops in the castle. You can use or equip items from theItem Bag while in the Dark Assembly, in battles, at the Item World, andeverywhere that you can use the Warehouse. To switch between theWarehouse and Item Bag, use left and right.

Item World~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The item world has two main benefits: first, the item world is where yousubdue Specialists, and second, each floor of the item world that youcomplete adds a small amount of power to the item. The item world isalso the only place you can get some of the best equipment of the game,there is an early chapter that requires you to go through at least tenlevels of the item world, and it is necessary to complete the item worldfor a Legendary item to get one of the endings of the game.

The item world is essentially a long, randomly generated dungeon. Eachlevel has random topology, and may include islands, some of which may befar out of reach.

Each level will always contain a base panel and a 'Dimensional Warp'which takes you to the next level without completing the current one.Although portions of the item world may be disconnected, the base panel

and Dimensional Warp will be connected. (The Dimensional Warp may betoo high for any character to jump or be thrown to, or may be otherwiseunreachable, but it will always be *connected* to the base panel.)


4/31

Sitting on top of the Dimensional Warp may be an enemy unit with thespecial type 'Gatekeeper'. A Gatekeeper will never move from that spot(and any unit on the Dimensional Warp cannot be lifted). It can,however, be moved by special attacks such as Triple Strike, or warpedaway. Every level will have a minimum of three enemy units. (Note:Though I have not confirmed it, I am told that very small levels (1panel by 2 panels) can appear, and will have fewer than three enemies,

since they do not have room for three.)

Every tenth floor in the item world is special. Each one contains anItem General, Item King, or Item God, and these are the only floors atwhich you can leave the Item World without using a Mr. Gency's Exit.The first Bonus item for these levels is always a Mr. Gency's Exit;after you get the free one from Karla, this is the only sure way toacquire one. These floors also have a red background instead of a whiteone.

Item Generals appear on levels 10, 20, 40, 50, 70, and 80.

Item Kings appear on levels 30, 60, and 90.

Item God (or Item God 2) appears only on level 100.

If you are stuck or running low on HP, you can leave the Item World atany time by using a Mr. Gency's Exit. When you use this, youimmediately return to the castle, and will reenter the item at the flooryou left.

There is a single caveat on the use of Mr. Gency's Exit: if you kill anItem General or King, and choose 'No' when asked if you wish to returnto the castle, then use Mr. Gency's Exit, the game will not count yourItem General or King kill, and you won't get any of the power gain that

you would normally get from the kill.

Except for the caveat above, there is no difference (in terms of thepower of the item) between killing every enemy on every floor, skippingevery floor, and using a Mr. Gency's Exit on every floor, thenreentering, as long as you kill every Item General, King, and God.

Occasionally, a unit will spawn that represents a specialist. When thishappens, the game will show that unit with the work 'CHECK' at the startof the floor. If you kill this unit, that specialists becomes subdued.Specialists are described in greater detail below.

Formulas for Item Leveling~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All numbers are related to individual statistics; in particular, thecurrent number of specialists and the specialist counter are differentfor each stat that the item has.

n=level (as shown in battle screen)x=item generals counter (global to the item)b=base stat of the item (stat of a Normal item)c=specialist counterp=number of specialists currently on the item

i=initial stat of the item (stat of the actual item)s=1 if i>0, -1 if i


5/31

All numbers are computed/stored with high precision; however, the floorof the number is displayed.

Skipping/clearing level n: adds s+i/20+i*x*b/200 to each stat adds c*3/20 to each stat

Killing an Item General: adds s*b*(20+n)/200 to each stat

adds p*(3+n*3/20) to each stat adds p to c for each stat adds 1 to x

Killing an Item King: adds s*b*(20+n)*2/200 to each stat adds p*(3+n*3/20)*2 to each stat adds 2*p to c for each stat adds 2 to x adds 1 Specialist slot

Killing an Item God (2): adds s*b*(20+n)*3/200 to each stat adds p*(3+n*3/20)*3 to each stat

adds 1 Specialist slot [see note]

The death of an Item General or Item King is always calculated after theincrease for the level that the General/King was on.

Note: no item can have more than 16 specialist slots.

For those who are interested, Appendix A contains my notes (mostlytables of item stats) from determining these formulae.

What all of this math really means is that:

You should always kill Item Generals/Kings/Gods.

If you want an extra boost to an item's stats, leave a specialist on theitem while leveling it. Each specialist is worth 270 extra points towhichever stat it boosts on a Legendary item, if left for all 100 floorsand all Generals/Kings/Gods are killed.

If you want to maximize any particular stat on an item, you have tosubdue and remove all of the native specialists before you defeat thefirst Item General; this will require using Mr. Gency's Exit beforefinishing floor B10. Once you have removed all of the nativespecialists, but before you kill the first Item General, fill every sloton the item with specialists that boost whatever stat you are trying tomaximize (e.g., to maximize ATK, fill the item with Gladiators). Then,go back into the item and proceed to level it, killing all ItemGenerals, Kings, and God. After killing each Item King, the item gainsa specialist slot, so exit the Item World at that point and put anotherspecialist on the item.

There is no difference between clearing and skipping floors, as long asyou kill Item Generals/Kings/Gods.

If you level any item with a negative stat to level 100, that negativestat ends up being exactly -100.

Item Specialists~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


6/31

Item Specialists are helpful spirits within an item. Every Specialistadds to the item's power. Specialists come in two forms: subdued andunsubdued. All specialists start out unsubdued and are displayed insilver dots or black text on the item screen. Specialists are subduedthrough the item world. Once a Specialist is subdued, it is displayedwith blue dots and text, it doubles in power, and it may be transferedto another item.

Specialists may be combined. This takes two specialists of the sametype and merges them into one Specialist with the power of both. Ifeither of the old Specialists was unsubdued, the new Specialist will beunsubdued, and the power of the original subdued Specialist (if any) ishalved before the combination. (This doesn't truly cause you to loseany power, as it will be doubled again if you subdue the newSpecialist.)

Specialists are subdued by killing them when they appear in the itemworld. When a Specialist appears on a level of the item world, it willshow 'CHECK' as the stage is loaded, and it will show in the

'Characters' list in blue text immediately after all enemy units andimmediately before Geo Symbols.

Specialists will attack and be attacked by enemy units in the itemworld, so it is a good idea to kill them quickly. If enemy units killthe Specialist (or you end the stage before killing the Specialist,either by killing all enemy units or exiting to the next level), theSpecialist will not be subdued. It can, however, reappear at a laterlevel; it appears that there is a percentage chance of a specialistappearing on each level, as long as there is an unsubdued specialist inthe item, so you do not have to kill every specialist on its firstappearance.

Specialist Types~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Some of this information (especially from the Resistance, Increases, andEffects) came from the Item World Specialists guide by SephirothYuyX.

VERIFYAll Specialists can be increased to power 19998 (the game will onlyallow 9999 as the power for a newly-combined Specialist; to get 19998,you have to combine a subdued and unsubdued Specialist to produce a 9999unsubdued Specialist, then subdue it through the item world). However,many Specialists have a maximum effective power; neither a singleextra-powerful Specialist nor multiple Specialists of lesser power cangive a single character any benefit beyond that level.

Stat Bonuses

Each of these Specialists increases one of the eight statistics of anitem by the Specialist's power level:

Dietician -- HPMaster -- SPGladiator -- ATK

Sentry -- DEFTeacher -- INTCoach -- SPD


7/31

Marksman -- HITPhysician -- RES

There is no effective limit to these Specialists.

Resistance

Each of these Specialists increases the item wearer's resistance toa particular form of attack:

Aeronaut -- WindCryophile -- IceFirefighter -- Fire

VERIFYPharmacist -- PoisonCoffee Maker -- SleepMedicine Man -- Paralyze

Psychologist -- ForgetSocial Worker -- Deprave

The maximum resistance any character can have to Wind, Ice, or Fire is90%, which means that the maximum effective power is 140 for Aeronaut,Cryophile, and Firefighter (due to characters with negative baseresistance).

Increases

Each of these Specialists increases how much of a particular thing theitem wearer gains, each unit of power is equivalent to a single percent

increase in gain (e.g., a character with a power 1 Statistician willgain 101% of normal experience; a character with a power 300Statistician will gain 400% of normal experience):

Broker -- HLManager -- ManaStatistician -- Experience

VERIFYArmsmaster -- Weapon Mastery

The maximum effective power for Broker is 300.The maximum effective power for Manager is 300.The maximum effective power for Statistician is 300.(VERIFY) The maximum effective power for Armsmaster is 2400.

Effects

Each of these Specialists adds a chance of a status effect to attacksmade by the holder of the item:

VERIFYAlchemist -- PoisonHypnotist -- Sleep

Witch Doctor -- ParalyzeAmnesiac -- ForgetGangster -- Deprave


8/31

Rarity~~~~~~~~~~

There are three levels of rarity: normal, rare, and legendary. Below,the properties of each are listed.

Item Benefit~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You may notice when equipping an item that you gain more or less benefitfrom that item than its listed stats. There are four reasons for this:Weapon Mastery, character level, stat aptitude, and identical rarity

bonus.

Aptitude


9/31

Every class has aptitudes for each of the eight basic stats; these varyfrom 50% to 150% and show up on the character creation screen and on thecharacter status screen. Aptitudes act as a multiplier to stat gainsfrom items; for example, a level 1 character equipping a normal MuscleWorld (1000HP) will get 500HP with a 50% HP Aptitude, 1000HP with a 100%HP Aptitude, or 1500HP with a 150% HP Aptitude. The adjustment for

Aptitude is applied after all other modifiers.

Weapon Mastery

When equipping a non-monster weapon, you get a bonus to all of weapon'sstats equal to the equipping character's Weapon Mastery for that weapontype times 5%. The formula is (weapon stat)*(1 + mastery*.05). Themaximum Weapon Mastery is 255, so the maximum Mastery bonus is 1275%.

Character Level

For monster weapons and accessories, you get a bonus based on the level

of the character. These bonuses do not normally apply until thepostgame, since they do not start until level 100, but they become quitesubstantial at later levels. They are calculated by the followingformulas (thanks to Zepy for these):

lev


10/31

Each item is assigned a 'rank', which roughly determines how 'good' theitem is. Ranks go from 1 to 42, and they determine what level ofenemies will be found in the item world for that item. Below are the'LV+' ranks for level 1 from the 'Go to Item World' screen (thanks toJungleJim for producing this table):

Rank LV+ Rank LV+ Rank LV+ Rank LV+ Rank LV+1 1 10 10 19 25 28 47 37 762 1 11 11 20 27 29 50 38 793 2 12 12 21 29 30 53 39 1274 3 13 14 22 31 31 56 40 2555 4 14 16 23 34 32 59 41 2556 5 15 17 24 36 33 627 5 16 19 25 39 34 668 7 17 21 26 41 35 699 8 18 22 27 44 36 73

The levels listed are *minimum* levels; in general, the enemies on any

given floor will be higher level than the LV+ number. Also, thesenumbers are for floor 1; later floors have more powerful enemies.

Hospital Items~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Hospital gives you prizes whenever reach certain numbers for each ofHP, SP, and Dec (Deceased) healed. Thanks to JungleJim for thesetables:

HP Prize SP Prize Dec Prize 100 Muscle Brawn 50 Common Orb 5 Caterpillar Egg

400 Muscle Hustle 100 Imperial Seal1000 Muscle Spirit 200 Psyche Orb2000 Muscle Fight 500 Dark Orb5000 Muscle Ace 1000 Blood Orb10000 Muscle Victory 2000 Star Orb40000 Muscle Dream 5000 Moon Orb 10000 King Orb

Ultimate Items~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The 'ultimate' items of the game are very difficult to acquire, butworth it (and necessary to beat the most powerful enemy in the game).

For weapons, they are acquired by entering a Legendary item one level ofpower below of the same type, fighting to level 100, and stealing itfrom the Item God there.

Once you have any item of rank 40 or above, you can level it to 100,then steal another Legendary item of the same type from the Item God 2at floor B100.

For reference, the Item God 2 I'm currently fighting has these stats:

(No 'More Difficult Enemies' bills passed)Level 6,933 [Fixed]HP: 10,184,640


11/31

SP: 199,698ATK: 186,416DEF: 141,452HIT: 147,000INT: 176,816SPD: 147,000RES: 135,906

EXP: 36,643,537,935NEXT: 10,573,275Skills: Omega Wind (Mastery 80) Tera Ice (Mastery 80) Star (Mastery 80)

Except for the level, you can expect these numbers to vary somewhat(+/-10%), but you need to be prepared before you attempt to kill (orsteal from) Item God 2.

The ultimate items are:Wpn-Axe: Apocalypse (VERIFY)

Wpn-Fist: UltimusWpn-Sword: YoshitsunaWpn-Spear: GloriusWpn-Gun: EtoileWpn-Bow: Galaxy (VERIFY)Wpn-Monster: Nyanko SoulEtc-Robot: Super Robo SuitEtc-Engine: Hyperdrive

The Super Robo Suit can be stolen from Baal.

The Hyperdrive you get automatically from defeating an Item God 2.

Monster weapons are a little different. The rank 40 monster weapon isNyanko Soul, which can be acquired at the end of a Lucifer Force, or canbe raken from Majorly. There are also a rank 41 and rank 42 monsterweapon. The rank 41 is the Nemesis, which is a better weapon than NyankoSoul; it can be stolen from Baal. The rank 42, Nemesis Mk II, is stolenfrom Prinny Baal, and has better base stats than the Nemesis--but itcomes at level 100, and Baal apparently doesn't kill any Item Generals/Kings/Gods, nor does he subdue any specialists when leveling his items.

There is no simple way to get a Legendary second-best item. The easiestway is to play around in high-level item worlds until you see one appeareither on the Bonus screen or in some enemy's inventory. For reference,they are:

Wpn-Axe: Durandal (VERIFY)Wpn-Fist: God's FistWpn-Sword: Cosmic BladeWpn-Spear: LonginusWpn-Gun: Infernal GunWpn-Bow: Artemis Bow (VERIFY)Wpn-Monster: Lucifer Force (VERIFY)

See the Item World Strategies section for advice on how to deal with theItem World.

Item World Strategies~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


12/31

The Item World gives many people headaches; here are some strategies fordealing with particularly tricky situations, and for treasure hunting.

The single most important rule for the Item World is: always make surethat there is a Mr. Gency's Exit in your Item Bag when going through theItem World. This item will let you escape from the current floor, and

when you re-enter the item, you will return to the same floor, but itwill have a new, randomly-generated layout.

The most common Item World problems come from Geo Panels, particularlyNo Lifting and Invincibility. Although the details of setting up GeoChains is outside the scope of this guide, it is important to know theways of getting rid of Geo Symbols:

1. Reduce symbol to 0 HP through attacks.2. Throw symbol into enemy unit.3. Enemy unit thrown into symbol.4. Damage from a color change will always destroy a Geo Symbol.

5. The Scout "Geo Change" ability will randomly reset the Geo Panels and symbols on a field.

So, for example, if you have a Gatekeeper that is Invincible, and theInvincibility symbol is out of reach, you can destroy another symbol onthe same color of Geo Panel (probably by throwing it onto an enemy orthrowing an enemy onto it).

The other problem that sometimes happens is that the Dimensional Gate isat a location that is inaccessible due to height problems--for example,it is at the top of a high pillar. For this problem, there are twosolutions: good throwers, and good jumpers. Rogues make the bestthrowers, and may be able to throw a character to a location that would

otherwise be inaccessible. For jumpers, at low levels Ninjas and Scoutshave the best jumping ability; late in the game, Ninjas and Majins do.Equip one of these with the best shoes you can find.

Treasure hunting requires more strategy than mere survival does; whilethe steps outlined above should suffice to get you through almost anyundesirable layout, more is required to get Bonus Meter items and itemsfrom enemy inventories.

First, when treasure hunting, always check the Bonus and Characteroptions on the battle menu to see if there is something that you want.Then, if there is, you need to figure out how to get it.

If the item is in an enemy inventory, it is usually easy to get. Simplyhave a Rogue use a Hand item from your Item Bag on the enemy, and,unless the enemies severely outclass you, you should have no problemstealing whatever you want. (The Rogue's level should be slightly overhalf of the enemy's level.)

If you want an item from the bonus meter, things get a little trickier.You have to both fill the Bonus meter and kill every enemy on the level.Filling the Bonus Meter is most easily done through Geo Chains (asexplained in the in-game tutorial and other guides), but can be donethrough other means:

1. Geo Chains2. Killing a unit3. Counterattacking


13/31

4. Combo Attacking5. Team Attacking

Except for Geo Chains, the individual bonuses tend to be small. Notethat the meter will rise a little further if a Rogue participates in theaction. Also note that, if there are few Geo Panels on a level, you canclear them in a chain, then use Geo Change and clear the new set,

getting a bonus both times.

Once you have filled the Bonus Meter (at least high enough to get thedesired item(s)), you have to kill every enemy unit on the level. Thiscan sometimes be difficult, particularly when the enemies are onfar-away islands. In this case, there are a few tricks to help. First,you can try to throw characters to the enemies' islands; the Rogue isbest for this with a throw of 6. Also use the diagonal throw technique:if you hit 'X' while rocking the D-pad back and forth between twodirections, the game will allow you to throw a character in betweenthose two directions.

If you can't throw a character (either because there are no free spaceson the island or because it is too far away), then you have to useranged attacks. Guns have the longest range for normal attacks; magicis best for things that are just outside of gun range. However, thelongest-range attack in the game is Dark Cannon, the other Scout skill.Dark Cannon can attack any place on the board that is not blocked by awall; unfortunately, after the initial attack it will fire on theclosest unit--ally or enemy--at the end of each turn, so you must moveyour characters away quickly (lifting and throwing the cannon helps aswell).

Lastly, rely on your own cleverness. The Item World is randomly-generated, and although it has some constraints, some very strange and

very difficult layouts sometimes appear. Hopefully these strategieswill help you get through them.

Theft~~~~~~~~~~

Theft is a very important ability late in the game. It is the only wayto get the best items, and it is an easy way to get good items in theendgame.

To steal, you have to use one of the 'Hand' items (Stealing Hand,Plunder Hand, Cha-Ching Hand, Bandit's Hand, Awesome Hand). Simply goto 'Item' on the character action menu, select the hand you want to use,and move the cursor to the character you want to steal from. (Note: ifyou fail, you do not lose the hand.)

Rogues are *much* better at stealing than other classes, though anyclass can steal. Their levels count double in the formula, they havetwice the maximum chance to steal, and they can steal opponents' statsas well as items.

Rogues have a chance to steal items and stats governed by the followingformula (thanks to Scy046):

c = h + t*2 + 25 - e - r*3 - a

c: The percentage chance to steal.


14/31

h: The HIT statistic of the hand being used (including specialists).t: The level of the thief.e: The level of the enemy.r: The rank of the item.a: 0 if the rarity of the item is Normal, 10 if the rarity is Rare, 30 if the rarity is Legendary, or 100 if the item has rarity 0.

Statistics are considered Normal rank 0 items for this equation.

A Rogue can have, at most, a 99% chance to steal.

Other classes have a chance to steal items governed by the followingformula:

c = h + t - 30 - e - r*3 - a

c: The percentage chance to steal.h: The HIT statistic of the hand being used (including specialists).t: The level of the thief.

e: The level of the enemy.r: The rank of the item.a: 0 if the rarity of the item is Normal, 10 if the rarity is Rare, 30 if the rarity is Legendary, or 100 if the item has rarity 0.

Non-Rogues cannot steal statistics.

Non-Rogues can have, at most, a 50% chance to steal.

What this means is that you should use Rogues to steal, and if youalways want to have a 99% chance to steal, make sure your Rogue's levelis at least (enemy level / 2 + 141), and use vanilla, level 0 Bandit'sHands. A level 1 Rogue should be able to steal anything with a Hand

with at least 7062 hit, but you'd be wasting a lot of Marksmen.

The numbers for all items are for Normal rarity, level 0 items.

Maximum ATK~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Since the question arises on a regular basis, this section outlines themaximum ATK a character can have, prior to using Extra Gain and stat

theft.

The optimum character, somewhat surprisingly, is Thursday. This issurprising since Thursday cannot Transmigrate, and therefore misses outon Transmigration bonuses, and cannot equip the Yoshitsuna, which is, byfar, the most powerful weapon in the game.

However, both of these flaws are vastly overcompensated by Thursday's150% aptitude in almost all stats.

The most powerful weapon Thursday can equip is the Nemesis. (TheNemesis Mk II is better in theory, but since you steal it alreadyleveled to 100, and Baal does not kill Item Generals/Kings/Gods, theNemesis is actually better.)

To truly maximize the Nemesis, you have to get one with 13 specialistslots at level 0, subdue and remove all specialists before completingfloor 10, and fill it with Gladiators. Then, after killing each ItemKing (and thereby adding another slot to the item), fill the new slot

with another Gladiator. If you do this, it adds 3,888 ATK to the item.

The Nemesis at level 100 has 45,100 ATK, if you kill all ItemGenerals/Kings/Gods.

The Nemesis with 13 slots at level 0 will have 16 slots at level 100.These must all be filled by power 19998 Gladiators. If you do all ofthis, then your Nemesis will have:

3888 (spec. bonus) + 45100 (level 100) + 319968 (specs) = 368956 ATK

You must then do the same thing with 3 Legendary Champion Belts, makingsure that each has 13 specialist slots at level 0 and that each has the

exact same rarity number as the Nemesis.

3888 (spec. bonus) + 27100 (level 100) + 319968 (specs) = 350956 ATK

Equip the Nemesis and all three Champion Belts on Thursday, at level9999:

(368956 + 3*350956) * 13.99 (level 9999) * 1.3 (rarity bonus) * 1.5 (aptitude) = 38,788,069 ATK

Add Thursday's intrinsic ATK:

10 (base stat) + 9998 (level gains) * .45 (level gain multiplier) * 10 (base stat) = 45,001 ATK

For a grand total of 38,833,060 ATK.

The second-best character for ATK is Priere, and the third-bestcharacter for ATK is a Divine Majin. However, there is no known cap onthe number of points that can be gained through Extra Gain and statstealing, which makes these kinds of evaluations somewhat irrelevant.(Though it should be noted that, once it is set up, getting pointsthrough Extra Gain should be much faster than getting points throughstat theft.)

Item Leveling Formulae Notes~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

These are just my notes, unsupported, for those who want to have someidea of how I went about figuring out the item formulae. There are somethings that are missing, but it's a mostly-complete set of data.

Other notes:

Level 0-10, no exit, same as exitting at Level 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10.

Accidentally discovered that using Mr. Gency at level 11, withoutexitting at level 10, erases Item General Kill.

Created a level 0 Infernal Gun with no specialists by using 4 Mr.Gency's Exits on level B1, and saving/reloading a bunch of times. Theodds of a specialist appearing on level 1 seem to better than 1 in 4, aslong as there is an unsubdued specialist in the item. Other items I didnot do this with, but values come out the same, which supports my

theories. The Cosmic Blade I took out for testing, always removed itsnative residents by exitting at level 9; all other items were me gettingCoaches so that I could do an 8-Coach test.

Belts are so that I can determine equations for negative stats.

Then Scy046 goes and mentions this formula:

[Chance to steal =] (Hit of Hand + Rogue's Levelx2) - ((Enemy Level + 25) + z(Rank*3 + R))R = 0 for normal, 10 for rare, 30 for legendary

Which, when corrected to this:

[Chance to steal =] (Hit of Hand + Rogue's Levelx2) -

((Enemy Level - 25) + z(Rank*3 + R))

or

[Chance to steal =] (Hit of Hand + Rogue's Levelx2) - Enemy Level + 25 - Rank*3 - R

is perfect, saving me a lot of work.

lvl 101 ~ 500: ((lvl - 100) / 2 + 100)%lvl 501 ~ 2000: ((lvl - 500) / 5 + 300)%lvl 2001 and above: ((lvl - 2000) / 10 + 600)%
