Hidden Strength

Possible to get the official status on this AA? Working or not? After buying a couple I haven't noticed a hp gain over 305stm so it leads me to believe it hasn't been activated yet. Possibly to act as a cap raise for future expansion plans?

And I can't find anything regarding it on Buglist or Search.
 
Maybe why this is one of those underused AA's is because its so vague. I like to know what I'm investing my time/points in. Maybe give us some sort of hint as the actual effect of this AA?

I mean obviously its no noticeable hp/ac gain as they client shows nothing. Parseable damage increase? Increased avoidance/mitigation? I mean just a little insight over the vague description might make this AA alot more appealing to the masses. As it is now its right up there with advanced metabolism for me. Yea its something thats neat but is it really worth the aa points at this stage of my character development?

Just a weee bit of more information could go a long way.
 
I realize that its server side and that all the stats won't be pushed past 305, but unless getting over 305 STA increases your HPs on your client, how do you know its working, the main reason for stamina IS to increase your HPs. Does having over 305 stamina allow your HPs to be 9100 (server-side) out of 9000 (client-side) or is it just stamina as in endurance (yellow-bar) on the server? Of course HPs is the only way you can even begin to see if hidden strength is working, str, agil, dex, cha you really have to take for granted if its working or not.
 
Hidden strength makes:

STR over the cap increase your damage.
STA over the cap increase your mitigation.
DEX over the cap increase your chance to hit.
AGI over the cap increase your chance to avoid.
CHA over the cap increase your chance of landing spells.

It's pretty predictable.
 
In that case, can the wording of the AA be changed? Right now, it says you will gain additional bonus from stats, *EVEN* above the cap, implying it gives extra benifits below the cap as well.

I think it is pretty clear. Obviously there is a benifit from stats under the cap.

Wiz says "*OVER the cap*"?
 
He means past 305.

If it's asking too much information I'll understand, but could you give us any sort of ballpark on effectiveness? Would you need, say, 5 agi over the cap to do the same as 1 agi under it? 3:1, 10:1?
 
Hehe, I thought it wasn't working before so I started to shed cha gear. Back to the cha mines for me :911:
 
Its probably mentioned somewhere else, but whats the cap for these stats? Is it the same for each stat?

"Each rank of this ability increases your hidden cap by 30."

At 65 with the relevant AAs, Str/Sta/Dex/Agi/Cha will all cap at 305. Casters can also buy innate enlightenment to further increase their wis/int from 305 to 355.
