System. How much mana will I need, in total, to complete enough mana-channeled swings to upgrade Mana-Strain Resistance to Level 10?
[Request Acknowledged.]
[Calculating...]
[Not enough information. Assumptions must be made.]
[Assumption 1: The no. of Channels required per level increases in multiples of 8 rather than by doubling every level. The scenario that the number doubles is highly improbable due to the nature of exponential functions. It would be unreasonable for this to be the case.]
[Assumption 2: The Host's mana usage limiters remain activated, at 20 Mana used per swing.]
[Under these assumptions, the Host would require a total of 6720 Mana for the requested achievement.]
Each Crisis Core is 10,000EXP, but only half that number in Mana. I'd have to sacrifice two of the four Crisis-Class cores...but in exchange, I can take [Mana Strain Resistance] all the way to Level 10.
Was it worth the trade-off in EXP?
Yes. Yes it was.
