Is there any point to Limit Break before 99?

I was wondering if it would let stats go above 999 if your pilot is below level 99. I am leveling up Allenby and her melee is already capped.

You get a free 7 Breakthrough Points upon limit breaking her so why not? You can buy some stats with that. Plus you can start buying more melee stat pass the 999 hard cap assuming that you haven't bought all with capital yet.

There's no difference on when you limit break. It just doesn't do much before level 100. You get 7 free BP which you can use to boost stats, but you won't get any more till you get over level 99.

Limit breaking on Mobile Suits gets you an extra mod slot.

can anyone confirm that limit breaking before 99 is an intended mechanic? i know you can do it but my brother who has the game on ps4 seems absolutely certain that you can't on console. i suspect he is wrong but don't know for sure and would like to know that assuming what he said is right whether pc or ps4 is the glitched version.

limit breaking before lv 99 allow 7 limit break points and the ability to increase base stats above 1000 (as you can buy +999 stats in train). So a lv 1 char limit breaked can have over 1000 stats if you have the cap for it. (default stat + 999 from training + optional limit break points)

If you Break before 99 and you have stats at 999 do that stats then grow by any missing points? Example lets say you have 999 in Melee for a few levels before you Break. After you do Break will the points you would have earned in Melee if not for the Cap automatically be replaced thus putting you past 999? Hope I worded that right.

Do you mean a missing stat due to your characters capped 999 their stat earlier, and any stat from leveling up would be missed or wasted?

If so the answer is yes. You regain all the missing stats upon limit break.

For example you cap a lv 40 pilot with 999 stats with both capital and stat growth. That would mean any stat you gain from leveling up from now on would be wasted because your stat hard cap is 999, however if you limit break him later let's say he limits break once he's reached lv 90. Any stat he had missed between lv 41-90 will be added back automatically.

Thats exactly what I meant. Thanks for the quick reply :)
