What are the advantages to boosting each stat, anyways? I read it once, but I can't seem to locate that page again... :?

It's under when you hit upgrade character.

The problem is they are rather vague but from what I've tried here goes.

Strength: allows to wear armor and hit harder. Armor is iffy, and hitting harder though I've seen a couple times.

Speed: to hit more often

Endurance: To take more damage...worked about as well as armor(I'm presuming that it and Armor work much better together then seperate)

Intelligence: allows you to use tactics better(sort off...I never noticed a huge difference though apparently Repair tactic works better with more intelligence.)

Rank: allow access to better armor(also gets you assraped because you're targeted first in missions)

Courage: attack more often...works sorta like speed.

Skill/Firepower: allows access to better weapons...skill is for swords, Firepower for gun.

There are some italized stuff but they have yet to be activated.

And the only reason not on AIM now...because cleaning up at work...won't be home for a bit.

But for AIM KetchVader.

His group is named "Spirits of Vengeance". Unless someone is impersonating you, that is your account.

And, with the creation of my newest TF, I have started writing bios.

About Ethics Gradient
Being the first Culture Mind to come into contact with the Cybertronians, the GSV "Ethics Gradient" soon had recruited a score of disillusioned and jaded Decepticons for Special Circumstances.

Perhaps the only Culture Mind to fully understand the Cybertronians importance in the universe, the "Gradient" has been deploying its crew with little disgression to hotspots across the galaxy. Although it could never be endangered by any Transformer, the "Gradient" decided that to try to better understand the Transformer race, it would create an avatar using a blank spark protoform. It hopes that, eventually, with enough experience, this avatar will be able to operate on it's own, and can become an ambassador between Transformers and the Culture.


About Nachtschlaggerat
The first to join the "Gradient", Nachtschlaggerat has quickly become the typical Culture Minds idea of a Transformer: impulsive, brash, and over-confident.

Despite this, a Mind has admit that Nachtschlaggerat, and his fellow Deceptions onboard the "Ethics Gradient", are some of the most dedicated and innovative non-Drone mechaoids in the Culture... although some will retort that knife missles are far more efficent.

And Starstorm is my Decep for the mission.

Holy crap that's good. how many points do you have on strafe

Oh yeah-a question:

does the weapon that you have your transformer using affect how much damage you do with strafe and how often you attack with strafe?

I ask because of the 4 continuous strafes that Skylight was able to pull off. I've never seen that done by a transformer that had a weapon with cool down...

1. Tried with firepower weapons...no difference. So I decided to use Skill weapons(because Swords don't miss...which has brought me some nasty loses)

2. 4 points(this is how I kept my level down for a while)

Swords are good for arena battles, but nothing beats a good Rocket Launcher in a mission.

Have a very nice day.

True. Especially when partnered with oodles of points on courage.

What a pity that all of the swords have been bought...

Are there any swords better than the normal "Sword", and roughly: 1) How much do they cost, and 2) What are the requirements for them.

At Skill: 2 and onward it goes

Sonic, Diffraction, Thermal, Electron...the costs I believe 3000, 6000, ~10K, ~35K(in that order)
