What is Aran's MP usage per minute? - Nomad9375 - 2012-03-15

The reason for me asking is with the new alien socket system I could potentially achieve my goal of having very little Mp usage.
I currently have:
3 per 10 base
14 per 4 on my earring
= 228 Mp per Minute
I'm looking for the per minute Mp usage of OS, OS+FB, and FT at speed 2,3, and 4
And whether or not the soon to be released Nebulite could help me get recover about as much as I use or a little more.

This is a very strange goal.

I don't think it is. I find that Aran sucks up MP way too fast for the amount that he gets. I burn through mana pots quite fast on Aran.

Let me rephrase, this is a very strange method for optimizing MP usage. I obviously haven't done the math, but it would seem that sacrificing str for mp recovery would be counterproductive to conserving MP.

I'm also at a bit of a loss about why reducing MP pot usage would be a priority. MP potions aren't that expensive.

Using the potential system one can already raise their damage a great deal and once we stack potential 2.0 on top of it we will most likely have some leeway with which to add in some utility. For instance the Mp/4 Nebulites only work on accessories leaving My weapon and armor Nebulites for more damage increasing stats, minus the +3 seconds of invincibility top/bottom/overall Nebulite that I want.

So you're already hitting damage cap on whatever mobs/bosses you kill? If you have that kind of funding, why bother saving MP pots? Why not just use a pet with autoMP?

I don't mean to be belligerent; I really just don't see the motivation.

I have no kind of funding, but if these nebulites are a relatively farmable drop I might be able to move up just a little. Also even though I might never Empress it still has a potion cooldown.

OK then. Trust me when I say that MP usage is not an issue at empress. You will be far more concerned about HP and must use elixers because of cool down

For everywhere aside from potion lock maps just use a Jr Boogie familiar, your MP should stay pretty much full all the time with one of those summoned.

I am currently resistant to using familiars until I know if their names can be changed.

When you double click to register then you're able to give them names, if that's what you mean.

I think he's talking about changing names after you registered them.

Not using familiars because you can't change names? That's a stupid reason, and it's blocking your way to your lower MP consumption plan.

True.

Oh, right. I'm not sure if you can change them or not, maybe after the 30 days if up and you have to re-register them? I can't remember for sure. Either way, if you're looking for a way to keep your MP up, Jr Boogie familiar will help a ton.

Yeah, it does 5% every 5 seconds or so, on my 1800MP Aran that's 90mp which is more than anything else could really add up to.

I thought it was 15% per 10 seconds?

Actually I believe Jr. Boogie heals 15% MP every time.

Unfortunately, at bosses I usually prefer to have no familiars summoned, because they aggro the mobs. If I do use a familiar, it's a Big Spider or Mutant Ribbon Pig for extra drops.

Overswing's first hit is 420ms the 2nd hit is 660ms and I think it's 540ms for regular attack all at normal 6. Final Toss is 420ms.
Assuming maxed:
1st hit of overswing: 20 MP
2nd hit of overswing: 22 MP
Final Toss: 25 MP

Boostered speeds (faster 2):
overswingDouble: 330ms
overswingTriple: 510ms
Regular attack: 420ms
finalToss: 330ms
 I think

Once registered, Familiar names cannot be changed even if they are reobtained after expiring.

Familiars don't aggro mobs.
