I'm trying to amass a nice mag collection from all section id's now that I have access to online play (so i can transfer them all to my playable characters), and just now read up on the andhaka force only mag (when def is > 45).

Since I never played forces, and i hardly knew about this rare unlisted mag, i didn't even know it existed / any mag would ever need to be made with more than necessary defense points.

But while reading up on it, some sites said you have to have the def > 45 before the mag hits level 50... which seems like tedious and annoying work.

If I make just a pow mag and increase its defense as well (standard di/trimates), and then finish off with just defense increasing post 50, won't it re-evolve (like most mags re-evolve a few levels if their stat allocation shifts)?

Or is it absolutely necessary to keep all other stats in-check while making def 45 before level 50?
