Today, I did some testing after i noticed something strange.
I mooded my Sage Naruto to having a mood for + ninjutsu and - hp. I lvled it so he would get a 25% bonus. When I went back to character screen to check out the numbers, I saw he had only 4k nin but 3.7k atk, which should be wrong.

Sage Naruto's ninjutsu growth is higher than his atk growth, and 4/3.7 is 1.08~ which means his nin was only 8% higher than his atk. That got me thinking, cuz wtf? My mags and sword/scroll were equal according to their numerical stat boost. Why wasn't his ninjutsu stat much higher. Then I noticed something.

Sage Naruto's def and res have the same growth, but when I take off his robe and bond, they re different.

Then I checked my main. Light main's def and res are also the same according to their growth rates. My main's mood is + atk and - res. So imagine my suprise when his base res is higher than his base def.

Can someone explain this?
