Summary by SoftReset concerning the existence of this FAQ:
"Certain equipments will raise a character's stats. For example, an item like
the Power Belt will give a temporary gain of three points to a character's
Strength stat, making that character's physical attacks more damaging. If you
un-equip the Power Belt, that character's Strength stat will return to
normal.
However, if you gain a level with the Power Belt equipped it will help you
make a permanent gain towards Strength.
You will gain a fraction of a point to Strength, and although this fraction
won't be visible on the status screen it will be added to your Strength stat.
Fractions add up, and after so many level-ups these fractions will become a
whole point.
This is stat boosting, a way of manipulating stat growth by adding fractions
of points over many levels until they become whole points. Any item that
raises a stat while equipped will also add a fraction to that stat at
level-up, which is why such equipments are referred to as "stat-boosting
equipments."
* AUTHOR'S NEW WORD OF ADICE IF YOU'RE LAZY *
FOR EACH CHARACTER, HAVE THEM EQUIP THE SO CALLED "AUTHOR'S BEST CHOICES,"
AND HAVE THEM LEVEL UP. BE WARNED THAT SPIRIT WILL INCREASE VERY EASILY. SO
IF THEIR SPIRITS REACHES 50, HAVE THEM EQUIP SOMETHING ELSE.

Introduction
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is best used by people that has completed the Level One Game and get the
full benefit of having the best stats possible for the game. But in some ways
you'll have to come up with what you want your characters to have. Its ok if
you want to use this if your men are in level 30s and up, it still works, but
the full benefit will be lost. If you find this to be too much for you right
now, if you already have a perfect game kept saved, or dont want to bother of
doing this whole game over again just to have the best, I dont blame you. But
if you follow this steps slowly, you might suceed. Just take this slow as
possible, try to follow up on what im about to tell you. This might be
surprising at first, but here it goes.
This my second FAQ. It's not what I expected it to be, but someone gots to do
it.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Dark Star Theories
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Stat increases are not random, although they do usually vary from game to game.
Let me try to explain it at hand of strength.
You get 1 strength+ at every level ending with either 1, 4, 7 or 0. (LV 4, 7,
10, 11, 14, 17, 20, 21, 24 etc.) Making it 29+ by the time you reach 99.
Now that's were equipment comes into play, because additional to the fixed
29+, you also get 'random' bonuses. E.g. if you wear no strength boosting
equipment at all, you will get one additional strength+ every 3/32 levels.
(In other words: every 0.094~0.095 levels) This amount can be increased
simply by wearing more strength boosting equipment.
I'll tabular it from here on:
Equipment Bonus/ Range of Levels
+0 / 0.094~0.095 (Like stated above: 3/32)
+1 / 0.125~0.133
+2 / 0.154~0.158
+3 / 0.188~0.200
+4 / 0.214~0.222
+5 / 0.250~0.263
+6 / 0.278~0.286
+7 / 0.302~0.316
+8 / 0.334~0.353
+9 / 0.375~0.385 (To compare: 12/32)
Now compare a character with no strength boosts, and one with +9 strength
boost.
[Character with +0]Gets +29 from just leveling up, +9 from the 3/32 levels.
Total boost: 29+9 = 38
[Character with +9]Gets +29 from just leveling up, +38 from the 12/32 levels.
Total boost: 29+38 = 67
Now I know that more than 9+ is possible by wearing the right equipment so 67+
is surely not the maximum a character can get. But you may know that the
strength stat gets also used for HP calculation, and everything higher than 9+
will not affect HP in any way.
Spirit
You get +1 for Spirit every time Strength and Magic increased twice and if your
level ends with either 7, 4 or 0. (LV 7, 14, 20, 27, 34, 40 etc.) Making it a
total of +14 by the time you reach 99.
Now that you understood the equipment bonus thingy written above for
Strength/Magic, I'll move straight to the tabular for Spirit. It looks little
different though.
Equipment Bonus/ Range of Levels
+0 / 0.031~0.032 (+1 Spirit in 1/32 Levels)
+1 / 0.063~0.067
+2 / 0.094~0.095
+3 / 0.125~0.133
+4 / 0.154~0.158
+5 / 0.188~0.200
+6 / 0.214~0.222
+7 / 0.250~0.263 (+1 Spirit in 1/4 Levels)
+8 / 0.278~0.286
+9 / 0.302~0.316
+10 / 0.334~0.353
+11 / 0.375~0.385
As you can see, bonuses now won't comes as easily as compared with Strength, so
it will take more effort to raise Spirit.
Let's do the character comparison thing again, although I will substitute the
+9 from before with a +7. I'll explain why.
[Character with +0]Gets +14 from just leveling up, +3 from the 1/32 levels.
Total boost: 14+3 = 17
[Character with +7]Gets +14 from just leveling up, +24 from the 12/32 levels.
Total boost: 14+24 = 38
I did choose +7 because this will get you a whopping +38 Spirit at LV99 that
gives even Quina (the character with the lowest base Spirit starting at 11) a
nice, nearly maxed 49 base Spirit at LV99, but it will also be overkill on
everybody else. So just look for yourself how to achieve the max of 50 for
every character.
So far so good now for...
Speed:
You get +1 for Speed every time Strength and Magic increased thrice and if your
level ends with a 0. (LV 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 etc.) Making it a total of +9 by
the time you reach 99.
Remember that Speed won't go up any single point more than the fixed +9 if you
don't use any boosting equipment.
The tabular for Speed:
+0 / N/A (No bonus at all)
+1 / 0.031~0.032 (+1 Speed in 1/32 Levels)
+2 / 0.063~0.067
+3 / 0.094~0.095
+4 / 0.125~0.133 (1+ Speed in 4/32 [1/8] Levels)
+5 / 0.154~0.158
+6 / 0.188~0.200
+7 / 0.214~0.222
+8 / 0.250~0.263
+9 / 0.278~0.286
+10 / 0.302~0.316
+11 / 0.334~0.353
+12 / 0.375~0.385
Some comparisons again:
[Character with +0]Gets +9 from just leveling up and not a single point more.
Total boost: 9
[Character with +1]Gets +9 from just leveling up, +3 from the 1/32 levels.
Total boost: 9+3 = 12
[Character with +4]Gets +9 from just leveling up, +12 from the 1/8 levels.
Total boost: 9+12 = 21
Hmm, I guess that's all one needs to know about stat modification, so I think
I'll stop right here.
And I didn't cover the HP/MP gains for the simple reason that I just don't know
anything useful about them as of yet. Maybe later.

Terence's Theories
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
All your stats are strict formulas that are as follows:
Spd = SpdBase + [Level * 1 / 10] + [SpdBonus / 32]
Str = StrBase + [Level * 3 / 10] + [StrBonus / 32]
Mag = MagBase + [Level * 3 / 10] + [MagBonus / 32]
Spr = SprBase + [Level * 3 / 20] + [SprBonus / 32]
MSt = MStBase + [Level * 4 / 10] + [MStBonus / 32]
HP = [Str * HPMod(Level) / 50]
MP = [Mag * MPMod(Level) / 100]
Spd, Str, Mag, Spr and MSt stand for Speed, Strength, Magic, Spirit and Magic
Stones respectively.
Anything in [] brackets means to round down the number in the brackets. [4.5] =
4, [4] = 4, [4.9] = 4, [5] = 5 (as some examples)
HPMod and MPMod are a table lookup that depends on level. This is universal for
all characters. As a couple of examples: HPMod(1) = 250, MPMod(1) = 200,
HPMod(99) = 4524, MPMod(99) = 642.
The various 'Stat'Base values differ from character to character, but can never
change. Zidane's bases, as an example, are 23 Spd, 21 Str, 18 Mag, 23 Spr and
18 MSt.
The various 'Stat'Bonus values are the only way you can affect the growth of
your stats. Every level, these bonuses go up by a rate that's worked out from
your current stat increases. For example, if you have equipment that gives you
3 extra Speed, then SpdBonus will go up 3 every time you level up.
In addition to the above, StrBonus and MagBonus will automatically go up by 3
per level, SprBonus will go up by 1 per level, and MStBonus goes up by 5 per
level. (This has been tested to be accurate with Zidane. It's currently unknown
what, if anything, increases MStBonus over and above the 5 per level)
Base Stats at Lv 99:
Zidane
Speed: 32
Strength: 59
Magic: 56
Spirit: 40
Magic Stones: 72
Steiner
Speed 27
Strength: 62
Magic: 50
Spirit: 38
Magic Stones: 71
Vivi
Speed: 25
Strength: 50
Magic: 62
Spirit 36
Magic Stones: 68
Garnet
Speed: 30
Strength: 52
Magic: 61
Spirit: 34
Magic Stones: 68
Freya
Speed: 29
Strength: 58
Magic: 54
Spirit 39
Magic Stones: 72
Quina
Speed: 23
Strength: 56
Magic: 58
Spirit: 28
Magic Stones: 69
Eiko
Speed: 28
Strength: 52
Magic: 60
Spirit: 36
Magic Stones: 67
Amarant
Speed: 31
Strength: 60
Magic: 51
Spirit: 32
Magic Stones: 72
On top of the above, the following table tells you how much extra stat points
you'll have if you equip a bonus item giving the listed bonus for 98 levels.
+1: 3.06
+2: 6.13
+3: 9.19

Made By Terence
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Other Words of Wisdom from Terence
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Formula's pretty straightforward, in my opinion.
I'll run through an example though.
Let's see....
Zidane's L40. Now, we're going to work out his Spirit.
Zidane's SprBase (Spirit Base) is 23. This will *NOT* change throughout the
entire game. The number's always 23 for Zidane.
Zidane's SprBonus (Spirit Bonus) is... well, it's variable. It depends on how
we've built him up until now. Let's say we've levelled him up up til now with
no equipment though. Each level he would have gained 1 per levelup
automatically (since this is Spirit), so over 39 levels, he would have 39
SprBonus.
So, his current Spirit must be:
SprBase + [Level * 3 / 20] + [SprBonus / 32] = 23 + [40 * 3 / 20] + [39 / 32]
= 23 + [6.0] + [1.21875]
= 23 + 6 + 1
= 30
Okay. So, we give Zidane some equipment now. We manage to choose equipment so
that he gains 4 Spirit, so that his current Spirit is now 34.
He now goes up a level. He's L41. So how does this change things?
Well, SprBase stays the same, always. But SprBonus goes up by 1 for the level,
and an extra *4* for the equipment. So 39 + 1 + 4 = 44, which is the new value
of SprBonus.
So *now* his Spirit must be:
SprBase + [Level * 3 / 20] + [SprBonus / 32] = 23 + [41 * 3 / 20] + [44 / 32]
= 23 + [6.15] + [1.375] = 23 + 6 + 1 = 30
So, same as before. But the additional values went up a bit this time. Let's
keep this +4 Spirit equipment on him for an extra 9 levels and get to L50.
Over 9 levels, his SprBase would stay the same, but his SprBonus would go up by
1 per level, plus 4 per level for the equipment. This adds up to a total bonus
of 5*9 = 45, which we add to SprBonus, giving him a new SprBonus of 89 at Level
50.
So his Spirit with a SprBonus of 89 at Level 50 is:
SprBase + [Level * 3 / 20] + [SprBonus / 32] = 23 + [50 * 3 / 20] + [89 / 32]
= 23 + [7.5] + [2.78125] = 23 + 7 + 2 = 32
Do you follow?
*Another Topic*
Keep in mind this is a learning experience for me too. Most of the stuff I've
been posted up I'm just looking up or have looked up in the past few days. I
don't have nearly as much info on FF9 as compared to the vaults of stuff I've
dug and helped dug out of FF7.
That said....
Each character has a group of 5 memory locations (2 bytes each) that are
updated every time you level up. Those are the 'Stat'Bonus variables: one for
each of the four main stats, and one at the end for Magic Stones. *WHY* it has
a Bonus variable, I have no clue.
Anyway, searched out the equipment listing, and *boy* is it all over the place.
Unlike FF7, FF9 (as some of you already know, I believe) likes to make *HUGE*
uses of tables and offsets to save space. The stat bonus table is one such
offset. I've tracked them down and played about with them, but I haven't found
anything that alters MStBonus on level up yet.
And yes, you *would* think there'd be a way to influence it. I just don't know
of any way. Hence the 'currently unknown' disclaimer about it. I've seen plenty
of dummied out stuff in FFs before, and it wouldn't *surprise* me if no
equipment grants an increase in Magic Stone growth, but... eh. I'm only one
person.
Anyway, hope that helped.
*Another Topic*
Hmmm.
I doublechecked the starting stats. I *did* find that all of Eiko's stats were
1 higher than they should be, with the exceptions of Speed (I copied them down
from the hexdump incorrectly, it would seem). But that doesn't explain such a
huge discrepancy.
However, in my save games, I can definitely verify a lack of Magic Stones...
however, when I level them up normally, they seem to grow at the normal rate
(5).
So I decided to check my earlier saves.
And wouldn't you have guessed it? It's all the 'instant level up's fault.
Zidane, Vivi, Garnet and Steiner are all with you at the start of the game, so
they're fine; they're at L1 and it's great. But when another party member
joins and you're at a higher level... well, they level up to match you. And
they *DON'T* get any bonus points for that.
For the record, in my Burmecia save, both Quina and Freya are missing 7
level-ups worth and Amarant is missing 1 level-ups worth (from Blank joining at
L2). This also does not apply to only Magic Stones; they miss out on bonuses to
the main four stats too, if they deserved any.

Rebirth Flame's Highest Possible Stats for each Character
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
According to the information posted about stat bonuses these should be the
highest of each stat possible for that character by leveling from
1-99(Concentrating on that one stat). All they need now is proving.
Found off of Rebirth Flame
(The Author, KADFC, has done some modification in this area, but all facts
are still true. I just added extra lettering for clarication. Nothing much)
Highest possible of each stat for Zidane:
Speed: 50
Strenght: 83
Magic: 77
Spirit: 50
Highest possible of each stat for Steiner:
Speed: 42
Strength: 80
Magic: 77
Spirit: 50
Highest possible of each stat for Vivi:
Speed: 37
Strength: 74
Magic: 86
Spirit: 50
Highest possible of each stat for Dagger:

Magic: 91
Spirit: 50
Highest possible of each stat for Eiko:
Speed: 40
Strength: 76
Magic: 90
Spirit: 50
Highest possible of each stat for Freya:
Speed: 44
Strength: 76
Magic: 81

Spirit: 50
Highest possible of each stat for Amarant:
Speed: 46
Strength: 84
Magic: 66
Spirit: 50
***Extra Credit Discovery***: Rebirth Flame has just discovered something new
and interesting. Even though Blank's Level have direct connection to
Amarant's level later on in the game. Marcus is in a different matter.
Apparently Marcus' Level isn't connected to Eiko, but his stats will transfer
to Eiko though. Meaning you can level up Marcus all you want in a Level One
Game and still be fine, plus it's even better for Eiko later on in the game.
Soft Reset has leveled up Marcus to Level 99 before he left the party on
disc 2.

Author Translation and Understandings (From KADFC)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I believe this is what both of them means.
Special Type of Weapons Give You Stat Bonuses
Go to your Stat or Equip Menu and look at all your characters.
The Number for Stats Like
-Speed
-Strength
-Magic
-Spirit
-Attack
-Defense
-Evade
-Magic Defense
-Magic Evade
The Equipment that changes the first four Stats-Strength, Speed, Spirit, and
Magic. Are the ones only qualified enough to give Stat-Bonuses. Meaning if
you have the equipments that give Stat-Bonuses on that character, after they
have leveled up to a certain level, their stats will increase. So after levels
that end with either 0,1,4, or 7, something out of these 4 will increase.
Read the Theories again, to get better understanding. This is the case in
which they can be stronger than any other people's game. The more
Stat-Bonuses, the Stronger they become.
Although Speed, Strength, Magic, and Spirit are definetly effected by this,
others thing are also effected as well. But I can only name a few
Speed= How fast the ATB will fill up, Evasion of phyical attacks, and how often
Auto-Regen will occur from time to time.
Strength= Effects how hard you attack, the number of HP on the character, and
the ammount that Auto-Regen will give to you.
Magic= Magic Attack and the number of MP on the character
Spirit= Magic Defense and Magic Evade, and how often you'll get out of bad
stats, or Just Plain Luck in the Batlle Field.
Speed and Spirit has the max of 50.
Strength and Magic has the max of 99, even though none of them can go to the
max, without a gameshark.

Character's Section Format Explanation
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This part will start talking about each Character's Format. How I have placed
them in order of what I tend to display.
None Rule- When I say in a group of Equipments the word 'None.' It really
means that you can replace this section with any other weapons that
you might want. I'm telling you that no matter what weapon that you
place in here, it won't effect the main purpose of increasing a
specified stats.

Spd = Speed
Str = Strength
Mag = Magic
Spr = Spirit
Stat Increasing Equipments-
These are the weapons that give Stat-Bonuses. If you dont give any
Stat-Bonuses, I will not include them here because they have no use of
acheiveing of the goal of this guide. So only a certain few will be mentioned
in the list. I also will say what they add of the Stat-Bonus.
Elimination to the Best )-
On this list, these are the best equipment the game has to offer. Meaning most
the time they must be acquired or close to the end of the game, same are
exceptional. There is a way that I will eliminate for the best, these are the
rules.
A and B are equipments in the same Catergory, meaning they both belong to
Weapons, Head Gear, Arm Gear, Clothing/Armor, or Addons.
Ex: If A gives 3 Strength and B gives 2 Strength, then B is eliminated due to
the difference of that one Strength.
Ex: If A gives 2 Spd and B gives 2 Spd, 1 Str, and 1 Mag, then A will be
eliminated due to thelack of giving other Stat-Bonuses. Yet B have the
same stats plus more than required.
Ex: If A gives 3 Magic and B gives 2 Magic, 1 Spr, 1 Spd, and 1 Str, then in
this case, both are not eliminated because A gives an extra Mag and B
doesn't, even though B gives one of other stats, B cant give the extra Mag.
So in conclusion both are still avaliable on the list.
Best Solo Stats Increase- This part will offer the best combination of raising
one stats to the max as possible, since levels go up to only 99, many stats
can't go to the max of 99. So I suggest of you doing this for testing only,
don't try this as for a Perfect Game Save.
Equal Double Stats Increase- This part will offer the best combinatino of
raising two stats equally are possible to the max. Even though some character
don't have a very high chose of getting the weapons to make both equal, this
is the very best that I can do.
*Author's Choices* These are combination that have personally picked for
whoever that want to do a perfect game. The Stat-Bonuses are not aimmed
directly at one stats, but all four, being equally as possible. You might have
your own choices, but these are best of my knowledge
and definetly my suggestions.
*(IMPORTANT NOTE)* All of the Author's Choices are to be used to some extent.
Sometimes after leveling up, check to see if any of the
stats that the equipment said it was suppose to raise, but
didn't at all. If this occurs, give that character some
other equipment that raises another ability. That way, the
character wouldn't miss out on doing nothing. IF, you take
it off, and it lowers your stats in a way, then keep on,
it's not done maxing that part yet, it just needs a few
more levels or so.

Conclusion
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
All these types of combination are based on numbers and making the best
that I see fit. You can actually make your own combination with base on what
you want a character to have, I have no right to force you to use these
combination, but from my research and compermising with numbers and balancing
them to seek the best, these are truly the best of this game. I could add
another section of 'Equal Triple Stats Increase' part to all 8 characters, yet
I'll leave that for another time, when I can find some time.
This is only a beginning version of this guide. This will be erased when I see
that it can be the best that it can, but for right now it isnt. To even go
farther than I can go, I will probably team up with other Friends on Gamefaqs
to complete this mysterious task. Hopefully this will be done sooner than
expected.
Even though this has been updated 6 times, I'm still not fully satified with
it. UP To DATE: 10/15/2004

This Guide was made Possible by:
KADFC (The Author, of Course)
Dark Star (His Formula that I first seen, even though others said that there
were many errors that made his formulas false)
Terence (The Next Expert that shown me another Formula and gave me the most
word of wisdom, and apparently he should be doing this Guide, but
truly I don't know why he isn't doing it. Also the HPMod/MpMod
Table as well)
Rebirth Flame 2002 For finding out that Marcus' Stats Transfer to Eiko's
and all of formulas that he has given to me, even though
most of those formulas won't be included in this FAQ,
becuz it has nothing to do with Max Stats.
Ultima13 For giving SoftReset the Gameshark Codes for me to post it in my
FAQ. Even though it might be illegal for me to do so, Meh. It
someone complains, I could take that out, but until that time
comes, I'm ain't removing shit from this FAQ. THX to him as well
for reminding me about the Thief Hat.
SoftReset For giving me a quick summary about my FAQ.
