RPG Maker MV Tutorial #9 - Stat Explanation

Luck sadly doesn't effect Critical Rate, Dodge Rate, Hit Chance, or anything like that in MV.
Luck only effects the chance of States (such as poison) hitting or missing, and it is hardly noticeable (You need 100s more than the target to even notice it).

This makes it basically worthless by default, however this also makes it an amazing blank stat to do whatever you want with. Since you can make skills use whatever formulas you want it is simple enough to make Luck something actually useful. I tend to make it the 'Healing Magic Power' stat. Just be sure and tell players that you did something with it, because a lot of long time players know that Luck is worthless.

I usually have a hard time following tutorials cuz my attention span isnt the best, but your videos always keep me engaged and showcase the info on rpgmaker in a not overwhelming and intimidating way hahaha. Thank you for these tutorials!!

Is it possible to have like different chapters when player is different parts of the group, before they meet up and can team up. Like if I have 2 dimensions in my story, where one character is in the main dimension and after a chapter is done the player has to play the other character a while. And so on. I would like that to be possible I think, because my story is a bit like that.

These tutorials are really usefull

why did you skip warrior

This is a great video but I really need to know how to add additional stat types. Gotta drop me some Intel and Charisma into my game.

Seriously, your tutorials are very helpful! I remember trying to learn back in the Rm2k/2k3 days... it was such a struggle, especially as a kid! Thanks so much for these

I have a few questions. Say I was making a simulator with RPG Maker. Say I wanted to add a stat of my own or replace existing stats. For example: I'm thinking about adding a stat called "Intelligence," and want to replace M.Attack with that. I would also want to dictate which stats increase after battle or leveling up. How would I do all that? Will this be covered in another video? Also, could I remove stats in any way?

Can you input custom parameters? What if I don't want magical defense but want a stamina bar instead?

Thank you. The german version translated Agility to Skill for some reason. I was sure it must've been speed but I wanted to be save. o7

Would it be possible to have equipping weapons change your class? Exp is not used in the game, and growth is achieved through gaining gear, so that doesn’t really matter.

Can you delete and or create new ones?

Can you use the stats to affect other things, like if you don't really have battle or fighting scenes in your game

I just added the Botanist, Geologist and Linguist classes!

I really enjoy your videos. You're very funny and you make it very light hearted.

Manipulating all these data tables takes so long.
Creating complex events does too.
Creating complex maps does too.
The worst was trying to make custom animations.
I dread the day when I decide to make my own sprites... >.<
I know it's coming.

Heyo! I don't know if this a just a misunderstanding of mine, but could you clarify on how I am able to use skills? It seems at the moment I'm only able to use magic, and not skills. The skill I made won't show up. Any help would be appreciated!

Having a pretty big problem with a game, and nothing seems to be helping. So, I feel like I have the classes and enemy damage for an early enemy set fine.... But while the enemy does good damage to my characters when they're at level 1, as SOON as my characters hit level 2, they become invulnerable and don't receive ANY damage anymore, even though their defense stat ONLY went up by 1 or 2 points. Why are my characters suddenly invulnerable from all damage after just going up ONE level even though their stats didn't go up nearly that much from it? I've tried to alter the class defense, i've tried to change the enemy's amount of damage done, but nothing helps.

I don't get what "Luck" does. Is it like Dexterity from XP?

you’re gonna go far in life homie, you one cool dude 😎 thanks for the tutorials for real bruh

No dex?

This was a little more helpful than the MV in-game tutorial, but I still am hoping for a better breakdown of the stat interactions, and why the formulas are set up the way they are - for example, in the formula shown, why is it x4 and x2 specifically - why not x4 and x4? This is the stuff I'm still trying to understand.

Can we create a turn-base rpg game like hmmm... for example like Pathway.. or Xcom ??

Is it possible for a character to have more of a stat when unarmed like the Monk characters from final fantasy?

I never had a clear breakdown of the stats before - I understood several intuitively, but not Luck. Thank you for going over them. I realize full well they all make perfect sense when you understand them, but a flawed understanding can disrupt the design process.

You should release a Udemy course.

I wanted to make an enemy who's first attack always goes first. Hasent really worked.

Thanks so much for making these videos. I went from knowing nothing to making a decent game thanks to you.
Carry on being awesome!

Can you actually take out a stat? What if I don't want to use magic attack or defense? How do I get rid of them?

It looked more complicated.

You are hilarious.

I'm on part 9 and just realized its 60 bucks
fuck

Fantastic!

your videos are fuckin amaazing

Is there any way in RPG Maker MV to swap-out their default Stats with ones of our own choosing ?
Because in my homebrew game all characters have 10 Stats: STR, CON, AGI, DEX, WIL, INT, PIE, EMP, APP, and LUC...

Hey so my character isn't affecting the battles at all and I've spent hours trying to figure it out. His guarding does nothing, his attacks do nothing, and yet the enemy does, so basically he just stands there and takes it. He can escape, but literally nothing else. Can you help?

Dear SumRndmDde,
My current basic 'attack skill' formula is not producing the numbers I'd expect to see.
I'd like the formula to read: (user ATK * 5) divided by (enemy DEF * 4).
After which, if the numbers are too low, than it will still do at least 1 point of damage.

Current formula:
a.atk * 5 / b.def * 4 >= 1 ? a.atk * 5 / b.def * 4 : 1

Thankx in advance.

I tried implementing one of my favorite attacks into my game, Heartless Angel, which automatically reduces your HP to 1. However, I found it doesn't work when guarding, as it just takes away half of your health. I tried adding a formula that would ignore defense, (b.def * 0 + b.hp - 1), but this made no difference.

Should I get MV or VX?

thank youuuuuuu 😊

is there a way for you to create an attack that heals you and damages the enemy? Like a vampiric bite attack?

Dude your videos have convinced me to buy this. Also I appreciate the lack of filler at the beginning, straight into the tutorials! Very good.

This intro cracks me up every time
