Something doesn't seem quite right with one of the factors involved here. I have a level 12 Human Paladin. His stats at 12 are:
ST: 18
DX: 18
CN: 26
IQ: 20
LK: 16

I thought it odd his Con went above 25 with his Luck still at 16, but figured it was a result of the Human bonus raising it from 25 to 26. I'm pretty sure both Human bonus stat points went to Con, though I don't clearly remember. Upon leveling to 13 though, this Paladin gained 11 maximum Health. I found this odd (since the roll should have had a minimum of 13) and did a bunch of trials. After roughly 50 trials, the maximum health received was 26 a couple times and the minimum was 11 on three occasions. In addition, his Con increased on many occasions bringing it up to 27. I did not record or count the number of trials, but did keep track of the minimum and maximum rolls.

While the max of 26 on 50ish trials is a possible statistical outlier, the minimum of 11 is strange. His Health bonus upon leveling to 13 with a Con of 26 appears to be +10 instead of the predicted +12.

I at first thought this was a cap, but found a post on the board in mid December where Mario specifically states there is no cap to the Health bonus per level. I couldn't find any later post to the contrary. In addition, the Spell Point cap is explicitly stated in the compendium and no such line is present for Health. So, it seems the game was designed to have no Health cap per level. This makes me think that the Human Stat bonus to Con might not be registering correctly.

Am I missing something?


to quote myself:

- Maximum HP per Levelup: (class dependant, for Paladin it's 16) + CON modifier (modifier capped at +10)

in your case this should give you a range of 1+10 to 16+10 11 to 26

Ah ha! That's the later post with mentioned cap that I couldn't find. Clearly what I was missing. Can you throw that in the compendium for the sake of completeness?

Thank you very much.


Oh totally overlooked that in the Compendium.

Sorry for the confusion. Will update it with the next version!
