Plenty of Green and Teal characters are over 200 WIS/INT at this point and are reaping the benefits of unclassic gear choices and mana calculations.

There are tons of unclassic things happening on Green where nerds are winning fights they shouldn’t be winning because they have access to hundreds of extra mana they shouldn’t have access to until Luclin.

Hasn’t this been a well known issue for years?

Not sure how much this helps but here's the javascript from the mana calculator at:
https://web.archive.org/web/20000510...calculator.htm

They were not taking into account int > 200 back then. Of course this doesn't mean that the game did the same.

Mana = ((Intelligence/5)+2) * (Level - (MagicLevel - 1))

HTML Code:
function Calculate1 () {
  var Intelligence = parseInt (document.forms.Form1.IQ.value);
  var Wisdom = parseInt (document.forms.Form1.WIS.value);
  var Level = parseInt (document.forms.Form1.LEV.value);
  var Mana;
  var ClassCode;
  for (var i=0; i < document.forms.Form1.Class.length; i++) {
    if (document.forms.Form1.Class[i].checked) {
      break;
      }
    }
  ClassCode = document.forms.Form1.Class[i].value;
  var Attribute = ClassCode.charAt(0);
  var MagicLevel = ClassCode.charAt(1);

  if (MagicLevel == "0") {
    alert("With all the intelligence and wisdom in the world, your total mana is still 0.  Pick a different class.");
    return false;
    }
  else {
    if (Level < MagicLevel) {
      alert("You do not have any mana at this level.  Choose a higher level.")
      return false;
      }
    }
  if (Attribute == "W") {
    Mana = ((Wisdom/5)+2) * (Level - (MagicLevel - 1))
    alert("Your total mana is " + Mana);
    }  
  if (Attribute == "I") {
    Mana = ((Intelligence/5)+2) * (Level - (MagicLevel - 1))
    alert("Your total mana is " + Mana);
    }       
}

Why is this fix not #1 priority?

If I had to guess, maybe there's some client disassembly to be done to handle what the client thinks the Mana count should be, otherwise it would just bounce up and down every tick as the server corrected the client on Mana count.

I just went from 200 to 218 WIS with 2 new items and it does jack shit. I believe this fix is in the game or I missed a patch note about it. Isn't that how it's suppose to work until a later expansion?

I've met many people (most of them) that think that getting over 200 is pointless and I've mentioned the Velious Client issue and get told I'm probably still wrong. So maybe the best 'fix' they have going is enough people just believing the wrong shit.
