Junction and Physical Familiars -- something odd (in General)

As it stands now, Junction affects the ST/DX stats of both HF and JKF. I'm building my Junction right now (it's only at about .2), and I only have 1/5 if the ST/DX that I should have. That's not how Junction is supposed to work, is it?

Typo: "and I only have 1/5 (or 20%) of ST/DX that I should have. In other words, my Junction is affecting the stats of my familiar.

could it be because of the .2?... aka 1/5 or 20%?

That's what I was saying.. but WHY does it do that? Junction shouldn't affect the effective stats for a familiar..

that would be a bug, your base stats should be the same, and you should get 1/5 of the bonus...

Right, bonuses/penalties..

Junction needs to be 1/5 of the lvl of your tattoo, not DX and STR

Not quite in the ballpark, eh Small?

Anyway.. what this comes down to is a bug of some sort, which causes Junction to reduce your ST/DX like it was an item bonus/penalty based on effective Junction level.

yea, i read it wrong, lol

Has anyone else even noticed this..?

have YOU (the finder of said bug) cm'ed jon?

I took it to the forums in an effort for others to refute me before I did something like that.. but I guess I'll do it now.

Maybe you should post the stats of your HF before.

Why do you not post the stats with the familiar on the Junction minion and the stats with it on another minion?

Here's the stats on my non-Junction character:
Hal 72,770 104,212 104,212 (HF)
Kano-san -9,064 41,691 69,485 (JKF)
Max tattoo: 208,424

Here's the stats on my Junctioned character:
Hal 54,544 55,310 55,310 (HF)
Kano-san -18,421 22,125 36,875 (JKF)
Junction: 12,145/9,955 (0.29)

(For reference: Halidon Familiar trains level/3 as HP, level/2 as ST and level/2 as DX. Jigorokano Familiar trains level/3 as HP, level/5 as ST and level/3 as DX)

The non-Junction character gives full stats to the char, while the other one only gives.. about half now? This is no longer showing a direct relationship to Junction, but that's the only thing I can think of that can be doing this..

(Both tats are well over my max tattoo level.)

Typo: Here's the stats on my non-Junction/Junctioned Minion(s)*.. same character.
