Suikoden II : Character Stats Analysis

Posted by Fondy Prasetio | 8:45 AM

Hi, i currently found copy Suikoden and Suikoden II while i'm clearing my storage room >,<;; and here i am playing this old game from the scratch again!! I look into many game faqs, but none include stats explanation, so i'll try to explain each stats.

Basically, i dig some information before i conclude into this :

STR :

Character raw strength. STR and weapon attack power will determine Character ATK.

TECH :
Technical skill. This one is still arguably. I believe this stats will determine counter rate, and hit rate. Combination between TECH and LUCK will determine critical hit rate.

MAG :
Magic skill. This will be determine the amount of Magic Points and power of magic. Either Offensive spell and Healing spell. It seems Defensive spell like Canopy defense, Clay guardian, etc will not have any use of MAG.

SPD :
Character speed. Will determine when the character will act in the random battle, means higher speed will result in faster action in that turn. Also used to determine multi hit rate, and evasion rate.

PROT :
Character base physical defense. PROT and armor will determine character DEF.

MDEF :

Character base magical defense. Will be determine damage receive by offensive spell.

LUCK :

Character Luck. I believe Luck have 3 effects :

  • Combine with TECH, will determine critical hit rate.
  • Will determine the rare drop rate in random battle.
  • Will determine the chance being injured or killed if unit is destroyed in strategic battle
Okay that's all about character Stats. Any info or suggestion will be greatly appreciated!

Formula :

Here's some formula writen by Vextor in suikosource forum [http://www.suikosource.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=8962] :
  • Critical Hit: (( Tech + Luck ) / 2 ) / 16 = Critical hit %age
  • Multiple Hits: ( Your Speed - Enemy Speed) / 4 = Multi hit %age
  • Chance of being injured in mass combat: 60 - (Luck / 10)%
  • Chance of being killed in mass combat: 50 - (Luck / 20)%
