Like many RPs, one of the core mechanics of Midgar Memories is the Technique System. Your Techniques can be melee, range, magical, defensive, whatever you can think of. It can also be a mix of multiple types. Every technique also has a 'nature': Magical, Natural, or both. Techniques have differing ranks, from 1 to 10, and can be upgraded with so-called Ability Points. Classes earn AP at different rates. The following classes earn AP at a rate of 1 AP for every 5 MP:
This is because Mages rely heavily on their magic in combat. The following classes earn AP at a rate of 1 AP for every 7 MP:
This is because, though they do not rely on magic as heavily as mages, they are still rather dependant on their magical abilities. The following classes earn AP at a rate of 1 AP for every 10 MP:
This is because these classes do not rely on magic a lot, and thus are capable of fighting on their own, without techniques. Now, of course techniques won't cost only 1 AP for every rank, especially since we don't have a limit on max rank like many others. No, here, the amount of AP it costs increases according to a funny little mathematical system called 'Fibonacci Numbers'. We will round these to the nearest multiple of five for later ranks for your convenience. The AP cost for techs is as follows:
But oh dear, how are you ever going to get 55 AP? That would require you to earn more than 250 MP, even for mages, to get a single tech at 10! Worry not, we have a solution for this. For every 25 Mako Points you earn, your amount of AP earned increases with 10% (your AP total might contain decimals but that doesn't matter). So, at 25 earned MP, you would, as Dragoon, earn 1.1 AP/10 MP, at 50 earned MP you would earn 1.2 AP/ 10 MP, etc. In addition, you will earn extra AP when fighting opponents during missions. So worry not, we've got plenty solutions for all this! Edited by Vaz, May 4 2012, 09:02 PM.
