I was wondering if there is a guide on how many hits it takes till they go to the next level. I've looked on the site and on Google and either I'm using the wrong words but i can't find anything. I know there are ways to use them to make them level faster but I'm one for facts and numbers, I'm willing to start over (again lol) and see how much each thing levels up with and without one, two, or none master rings. I know, "good Luck with that" but I love Castlevania and is the series I ALWAYS go back to after watching a few videos or music so I'm willing to do this if it means it can help people get a grasp on what to aim for. Help would be nice seeing as survival could be the best way, and lots of paper and ink lol.

Wow that's amazing! Now I don't have to do it lol. Is there a way we could save this data to the forums? I'd find this very helpful!

i55.tinypic.com/fd5ycp.jpg Here. = ) And here's where I found the info, in case you're wondering. www.gamefaqs.com/boards/997663-castlevania-harmony-of-despair/58132981?page=3Some good comparison math there, too. I'll quote what I think the important bit is: "I can't imagine that 12 XP with MP regen would be faster than 8 XP with Astral/Master. With Survival Mode, you're constantly hitting an enemy (until level 7 or 8 anyway, then you have downtime from the boss dying.) Some quick napkin math: Assuming 1 hit per second, 10 MP per cast. 350 HP vs 3 MP/sec, 130 MP. In 300 seconds, the Astral player will cast 265 times, die 7 times taking 5 seconds each time. Total of 265 * 8 = 2120 XP. In 300 seconds, the MP player will cast 13 times base, regen 900 MP giving another 90 casts for 103 hits. 103 * 12 = 1236 XP At that rate, it would take 5.46 MP/sec regen to match an Astral grinder. Overall, it's possible that Master / Regen could eclipse Astral grinding. It's unlikely that the opportunity cost of getting to Beelzy or waking up Menace then surviving compared to jumping in and pounding Gergoth would make this a truly worthwhile changeover though. Looks like it's a viable alternative, but not a better one."

Yeah I saw that graph a while back, encouraged me into leveling it seeing I actually didn't need 99999 iterations lol

Yeah, that'd be more than a bit time consuming. o.o;
