I been reading and saw that people say that aspersion gives 48% bonus defense at lv 15 but the skill description just says 48 so i wasnt sure if it was a flat 48 or really 48%. I tried testing it in game and the results were not conclusive either.
I had a char with 69 defense and bought the lv 17 aspersion buff in town and my defense went up to 204 which is 295% increase in defense and not 52%. I should have only gotten 104 if it was 52%.
I looked up the formula for it
value = 20 + (([Skill Level] - 1) × 2) + (([Skill Level] / 5) × (([Character SPR] × 0.6) ^ 0.7))
this means that the priest who was selling the buff had to have had 450 ish points in SPR. Is it possible to have that much stat points with the current level cap?
if it is a percent increase scaling with SPR then there would be no need to max it because the SPR scaling would more than make up for lack in levels in this skill but if its not a percent increase and a flat increase then still only 1 point into it would be enough because 14 extra points for a flat 28 more points would be wortheless and you could still get the extra bonus flat defense from the SPR scaling later game.
