would you decrease your attack delay
especially with a monk....
or if its not dex is there a stat that does that???

mithra are the fastest race...meaning it has the highest DEX and AGI of any race, which raises the attack speed of any weapon u choose.
Yeah Mithra own :D
*will be choosing a Mithra character*
so a mithra monk would be the fastest attacking starting class?
awesome
taedrin i thought u were going to be elvaan....
...im playing as a mithra in beta and they seem really cool though..
..we need some mithras in the WLA...
(and Galkas...me being the only one so far lol)
Yeah... well you haven't been hanging around a lot lately... I'm gonna be a Mithra now... I've picked a face, hair, size, and name... yup...
I've also played lotsa beta... an Elvaan... which made me realize how much I DON'T want to be an elvaan in the real game... yup...
What's so bad about being an Elvaan (just asking)?
Elvaan's have semi low magical stats. Theirs is higher then a Galka's but still pretty low, so a Elvaan mage isn't all that great, although they do have the highest spirit so they make the strongest white mages, but they have low MP so it'll be hard with fewer spells to be able to cast at the start.
If you make an elvaan... you wanna be a warrior right? Well... why be an elvaan when you could be the stronger Galka, or the faster Mithra?Quote:

I asked myself this many times, before realizing I want to choose a mithra... yup...
I also am quite sure that spirit is magic defence... and that int is used to determine the strength of spells... although you showing me a link to your probably old source would completely confirm what I am saying XD
Alright, Thanks.
Actually spirit is (and has always been) determined in white magic strength. Magic defense is magic defense, not spirit. Magic determines the power of black magic spells.
You have more speed then the Galka, and much more strength then the Mithra. Their more versitile then either of the two.Quote:
why be an elvaan
Let's assume for a second, not using real stats, but rather numbers to represent the real stats without getting into the real confusing stuff, that a Galka dishes out ten damage an attack, but attacks at 2/3 the speed that an Elvaan does.
An Elvaan deals seven damage an attack and they attack once each second. And a Mithra deals five damage an attack and attacks at 3/2s the speed of an Elvaan.
Now, Elvaans in a period of ten seconds will deal 70 damage.
In 10 seconds a Galka will dish out about 70 damage.
And in ten seconds a Mithra will dish out 75 damage.
Now, these stats were based on rough assumptions, but by this, they're all pretty much even. So it doesn't really matter in the long run. Galkas will have the added defense, Mithras the added evasion and the Elvaan will be in the middle. They seem pretty balanced in the end.
They're really not even...
I'll have to assume something... Bahamut hasn't played the game...
For one, Galkas are not slow. Everyone makes this assumption because they are big but that is not the case. They both have the same dex, and a Galka's agi stat is one higher than an Elvaan's (by looking at the stats)
You say "Magic defense is not spirit, it has always been white magic. Magic defense is magic defense"
Please show me somewhere where there is a magic defense stat... there isn't one... it's spirit. Spirit is magic defense, as it was in other FF games, and int is magic strength as it is in other games. Yes people were saying what you said but that was before. And even if spirit is white magic, Elvaans still have less mp than mithras, and it's only a one point difference.
Yup... Elvaans are not that great... cool looking... but not that great at all...
And whenever I say that people get all arguey... like... let it go... just because everyone had their hearts set on being them... yup...
Galkas are stronger and not necessarily slower, and Mithra's are faster and only have one less point of str... methinks... yup...
Much more str than a Mithra you say? Elvaans start with 9 and Mithras 8... 1 is much more? They more than make up for that anyhow with their 2 more agi and 2 more dex, making them more accurate, fast, and harder to hit. Plus they have higher int...
Whereas you said faster than a Galka... how? Elvaans agi: 6 Galka's 7. They both have 7 dex... but wait... they both have the same str! But Galkas have one more vit... so basically Galkas are elvaan's with one more agi and one more vit (as far a physical stats goes) and then 5 int (one higher than elvaans) 5 mnd (one lower) and 5 chr (one lower)
They make better warriors, no question about it. If you were picking soley on stats you would pick a Mithra or a Galka, and since I am I am picking Mithra. Of course the stats differences are not very VERY significant... so people can really just pick whatever they want to look like.
But don't be suprised if you're an elvaan being slightly outclassed by Mithras and/or Galkas
alright, since im playing a mithra in beta i gotta say that mithras DO do a lot of damage... Some people might think they dont becasue they dont look powerful, or that Galkas are slow becasue they are big like taerdin said....but trust me with my experience mithras can be strong...
...im right now a lvl 14 Mithra THIEF (mind you) and with the grapple i do 8-16 damage PER HAND and whoever has grapple attached to them hits twice! So on Average a Mithra THIEF lvl 14 can do 16-32 damage!
...now imagin a Galka monk.....*drools*
actually Taerdin white magic is determind by spirit and black is by intell ok
go here and it tells u
