The Bug:
In DQ6 DS, if you got your character's Max MP = 1000.0~1000.4 after gaining vocation's Max MP bonus, your character can use the Magic Burst infinitely.

There are 4 vocations have the Max MP bonus: Sage, Hero, Armamentalist and Mage.
The MP bonus rates are listed at the following.

Sage (Mastered): 1.2x + 20
Hero (Mastered): 1.1x + 40
Armamentalist (Mastered): 1.1x + 20
Mage: 1.1x

For Sage (Mastered), we'll have 817 x 1.2 + 20 = 1000.4 fits for the bug's requirement.
For Hero (Mastered), we'll have 873 x 1.1 + 40 = 1000.3.
For Armamentalist (Mastered), we'll have 891 x 1.1 + 20 = 1000.1.
For Mage, I'm sorry that no match values in this condition. (909 x 1.1 = 999.9, 910 x 1.1 = 1001, both are out of range)

So what we need is adjust our character's Max MP without any vocations equals to 817, or 873, or 891.

The easiest character to reach the requirement is Ashlynn. And she's also the easiest character to obtain the Magic Burst.
But her MP increases so rapidly that if you hadn't controlled her MP gaining on each level-up, finally you would get her MP over 891 which is out of this bug's working range.
If you decide to control her MP to be able to use the bug, you need to adjust her MP gaining to the least on every level-up from her L60 to L99.



The bug has been tested that worked successfully with DQ6DS both JP/NA versions.

How do you "control" MP growth?

Also, does this bug only work when the character is at full MP?

interesting concept......... id like to see a vid of this working

How do you "control" MP growth?

Making a chart of exactly how much magic power can be gained at each level to reach a specific amount at the end, then making sure each level up gets exactly that (you can have some freedom with assigning MP gain to each level dynamically, I guess), saving the game before a level up and resetting if the amount earned is not what you need.

Easy? Yes.

But very time-consuming.

From my real progress, Ashlynn's MP gains 11~19 points in each leveling-up.
What I had done was kept retrying her every leveling-up until her MP gained 11 or 12.
You need to do it from her Lv.60~63 to Lv.97~98.

Actually, not only the Magic Burst, but also all the other moves, cost zero magic points when this bug is working.
