Thinking about servers where the maximum level is 255 made me curious. How do you balance skill damage, sp usage, stat points, etc... What is the maximum amount of stat points a single stat can have? For example should INT go to 120 or is it more? If you don't increase the max stat limit then every class will max out all skills. As INT stat goes so does a characters max sp which throws off skill balance. Thanks.

It really depends on how you feel, you'll have to redesign some of the skills and changing the effects. You could also give it a low rate system sort of thing, by increasing the amount of stats needed to resist status effects / Instant cast. I really wanted to start a high rate, and I wish I've done such before I started off my mid rate server so I could customise things the way I wanted it to.

yah,i'm agree to jeroen, it really depends on you if you want to increase the max stat, increase the requirement of max dex for no cast and i think most of the 255 server is all about spamming skills until your finger hurts. Lol XD /heh

Maybe thats why I don't understand how a 255 server works. I have never played on, lol. I made my server got to 150 for all classes. This alone helps to bridge the gap between the way over powered 3rd classes and the other classes. That extra 51 base levels makes the 3rd class alone way more powerful so if you allow the others to reach it then they atleast match them before you take into account the super powerful skills...

Thing is with high rates, were I to make one I would give every skill a specific delay(Or increase the amount of stats needed for ASPD), because everyone and their mother uses a Macro on high rates.

in max lvl 255 you must have fast hands to switch items for specific enemy :D and even analyzing what's your enemy's weakness.

Going to level 255 seems like it imbalance monsters also. I know you can conf it to increase monsters health/damage by 150% or something, but in renewal you get penalized for killing monsters of a lower level. It seems like it would take a lot of work to then increase the base level of all the monsters to counter this. So even if the focus of the server is PvP it might take forever to level up or find rare item drops as the rates are lower.

When I tried 255, I died so fast in PVP, I don't get why it's so fun/good to people.
