So you're basically punished in this game for over leveling?

So apparently the max level is 30... and you can only choose bonus' stats for characters that are in your active party... so you basically miss out on bonus stats the more you level your entire party without having all the characters in the group...

Is this correct? Cause that's what I'm seeing so far... like I'm on level 5 and I know there's some green rogue character you get later on... I noticed I chose bonus stats for the 2 mains but once Garl got in the group it basically just washes over any previous levels you obtained and doesn't give you the ability to retroactively choose a bonus...

So that's dumb... :/

until im told otherwise i'm going to assume that characters randomly get their bonuses while they arn't in your party

either way your gonna end the game at like level 20ish its not a big deal

The bonus stats are still applied to the other characters as far as I know you just don't get to choose. And when you get them you can make up for any stat you want by focusing on those. And it's extremely tedious to iverlevel in this game. Especially early enough where you don't have all the characters. It's takes a lot of XP after level 10 or so and 300 per fight will take a while.

Respawning alone requires that you completely leave an area.

Once you level up everyone levels up, not only those from active party.
You will choose them manually for everyone.

Characters who join your group later will have the bonus stats assigned randomly (I guess, but they will definitely have them assigned)

[NeoRizer]

Fair enough, I just thought it was kind of a dumb mechanic honestly. Like the bonus stats kind of help in this game from what I'm seeing... like +8HP could be a big deal if enough of those bonus' are applied... etc... with any other given stat.

Theres also a max level per stat-up cap. I minmaxed each character to basically be 1 or 2 stats focused. Eventually those stats no longer appeared as level up options.

Only level 30? Wow, that's very low. Now I understand why leveling in this game is so slow.

[spoilerspree]

You can pick one stat max 5x. There are 6 type of stats, So if you max your lvl you get 5 stats at 5 bonus and 1 at 4 bonus.

If you pick stats A, the next lv up A wont show up in the choice. If you have A at 3 or 4 but your lv too low, it wont show A next lv up.

Is it really punishing if the game is easy as sh*t?

You don't have to be lvl 100 with 255 stats across the board and that's perfectly fine imo
