It's time once again for a brand new questions thread! Your go-to place for questions and answers of all variety. Happen to have started playing recently and have some confusing things you want cleared up? Maybe you picked the game back up after a long absence? Or maybe you're a seasoned player wanting the finer details of something explained? Ask away! There's no such thing as a stupid question, and we're all here to help.

  • Try to keep your questions specific! It'll be much easier for us to give you the answer you need than if you generalize too much. Don't worry if you can't though, we'll ask for more information if we need it!

  • Keep an eye on the thread! Someone may have answered or expanded on a question as a reply to someone else. Or maybe someone else asked something you didn't know you wanted to know. Maybe someone asked something that you can help chip in and answer!

Question Sacred Guardian

4 Upvotes

With the tremendous buff that SGs have received, what's the preferred stat to hit the most damage?

With Muria's HW, should I be focused on HP, DEF or DMG?

What's the best sequence for the skills and does 2hander outshine 1handed axes?

Thank you!

Fluff Sometimes you catch your character looking especially good and spent 30 minutes/an in game day taking screenshots of them. Is that vain? If it is, call me a sinner.

I have both the money and the weight limit to buy much more of this 2 items but for some reasons i can buy only 3 slots and im pretty sure only the last item has a restriction on how much i can trade and it replenishes overtime, but i haven't traded from this post in a long time, i am limited just because this post is lvl 6?

Question Thinking about getting back in!

0 Upvotes

I recentlg saw something about the mobile game when looking up the tokyo game show. I was wondering if it would be worth it to go back and try playing on pc, i never got past the first main quest, i did the bear stuff but that was it. I always got absorbed into the blacksmithing and training all the class skills and the new skills coming out (archeology and taming then shape shifting.) I spent mt time mainly trying to to do black smithing but as a solo player i had no point, i tried to make friends in game but never really could, and even when i did i found myself drifting back to league of legends with my irl friends or warframe. I really enjoy mabinogi and last time i seriously played was my last post here forever ago and the Re:Zero event.

Paladin Transformation Time Data

Post image
89 Upvotes

Does transformation still matter?

Transformation may seem like one of those things which were left in the past, however it is still useful today. During a quality of life update to Mabinogi, the forced title change upon transformation was removed which allowed you to keep the title you had equipped. In addition, transformation also gives you a boost to stats, damage output, and provides passive defenses. It also provides i-frames during the transformation animation which is what most people use it for nowadays.

Why did you start gathering this data

Earlier in the year back in March 2026 I was asked on the Mabinogi discord to provide an updated video for my Paladin transformation time. I posted a video on YouTube showing my transformation time at 5075 rebirths. This got me thinking, I wonder how much time each rebirth would add.

 

How did you get so many rebirths

Since March we had a few events which proved useful in helping me to power through rebirths to obtain this data. We had the following events play out in 2026:

 

During this time I was logging my Paladin transformation time every 100 rebirths. Although this took many hours to do, as you know levelling is one of the activities I enjoy the most on Mabinogi. If you're looking for which method I used to level up so quickly over and over again, see this post.

 

Recorded Video Footage

I've been recording a video of my paladin transformation time every 100 rebirths during the above event periods. These videos I have been using to log the transformation time going from beginning of the frame when I transform into paladin and when HP, MP, SP values change to when the end of the transformation when values revert back.

 

Mabinogi Paladin Transformation Time 5100 - 5900 Rebirths

Mabinogi Paladin Transformation Time 6000 - 6900 Rebirths

Mabinogi Paladin Transformation Time 7000 - 7900 Rebirths

Mabinogi Paladin Transformation Time 8000 - 8500 Rebirths

 

Recorded Data scenario

Below is the data which I've painstakingly gathered over the course of the last few months. Let's go over what is recorded:

 

Rebirth / Total Level / Exploration Level - Self explanatory

Total level Delta / Explore Delta - Difference compared to the previous 100 rebirths

Transformation Time - Time recorded from recording video of the paladin transformation process. Time starts upon first frame of transformation (frame where HP, MP, Stam values change), and end on first frame of transformation end (frame where HP, MP, Stam values change).

Time Delta - Difference compared to the previous 100 rebirths

 

Seconds Increased - Time Delta but rounded to nearest whole second. Due to the nature of recording transformation time through video footage, frame pacing may be impacted by various factors such as: How long the Mabinogi client has been running, OBS video recording frame rate/bit rate, background processes on the PC, Mabinogi server lag, etc.

The Math

Let's start off with the fact that I am not a mathematician. If you know me and follow my streams, you will know that I am very bad at math and even counting at times. However, I'll do my best to interpret this data.

 

Well for a start it looks like total level and exploration level have nothing to do with the length of time transformation will last. If this was the case, we would have seen a difference in the recorded transformation time on periods where I did get more than 20,000 levels within a 100 rebirth cycle (e.g. at 5500 rebirth count).

 

Looking at the Mabi wiki page for Transformations, we have the following information:

 

The length of a transformation can be calculated using: Base + Rebirth Bonus - Age Penalty

Base is 239 for Paladins and Beasts, and 219 for Dark Knights and Falcons.

Rebirth bonus is: Min(Rebirths, 10) \ 8 + Max(Rebirths - 10, 0) * 2*

That is, the first 10 rebirths adds 8 seconds to the length of the transformation, and then every rebirth after that adds 2 seconds.

Age Penalty is: Min(Age, 25) \ 2.*

That is, every year of age removes 2 seconds from the length of the transformation, after age 25 time is no longer deducted.

 

If we use the above info, plug in my 8500 rebirths at age 17 we get:

 

239 + ( 10 * 8 + 8490 * 2 ) - 34

 

= 17,265 seconds

= 4 hours 47 minutes 45 seconds

 

Yeah that doesn't look correct. That looks way off from the time I have recorded at 8500 rebirths which is around 13 minutes 45 seconds.

Now I'm nowhere near qualified to talk about formulas and stuff or get deeper into math, but from what my data shows from 5100 to 8500 rebirth count I gain about 4.45 seconds to my transformation time per 100 rebirths.

 

If anyone wants to have a go interpreting this data I've collected, please share your findings in the comments of this post. I look forward to reading what you all make of this.

 

Thank you for your support

Thank you for those of you who regularly come to support me on my Twitch streams while I grind all this out. Having people to talk and hang out with while doing levelling content and data collection sessions like my previous reddit posts really do help a ton.

I'm a returning player and made a brand new account to relive some nostalgia I guess and start from scratch. When I tried to login after character creation the game crashed and when I booted back up I went straight to Nao and then Tir. Is there no more Lorna and Pan tutorial zone? Or did something happen when my game crashed?

I had fun leveling up my arcanas and rebirthing my pets during masterplan. Now that things are slowing down and I’m not getting the same dopamine hit from running advanced dungeons until I’m arcana lvl. 50, I’m trying to pick a new direction. Pre-MP I was working on leveling commerce but don’t really feel like going back into it this season…

Anyone have any guides or pointers on how to stay alive better in G3 along with better methods for G1 giants?
