that darn fifth principle.

[ChildOfTheSoul]

Recently, I became an MP5. I suppose it is expected that someone who becomes an MP5 should have at least a general knowledge of principles and acquiring them in story mode. I, however, did not fit under that category. Instead of choosing my fifth principle, I unknowingly increased the four that I already had, and thus became severely disadvantaged. Or at least I will be. I have completed story mode, and was wondering if there is any way to gain that last principle. any help or suggestions would be great. Even if it is a no, I would still at least appreciate an answer.

Hmmm I wonder... When you become MP6 do you choose your sixth one to drop when coming back mp5? If that's the case probably it's the way for you :-)

[ChildOfTheSoul]

That's a good question. On another note, I wish there was more clarity when selecting principles. I understand why they wouldn't try to explain the operations and results of choosing certain principles, but couldn't the story page simply say, "You can select one additional principle every MP level."?

[Pipstickz]

As I understand, advancing to MP6 is not the same as advancing to other MP levels. You do not go through story mode again.

[Grido]

I was pretty sure it did in fact say that you can chose one additional per MP level, I'll have a look though and say if otherwise

About going to MP6, haven't / can't remember spoken to anyone with the story route open for mp6, but unless you fit into that rare category, then there is no option to gain further principles that route.

LE: yup, pop-up I believe;[quote]You entered story mode.
During story mode you can only access the quest page. Each part of the story allows you to learn new skills and principles. The skills are received automaticaly but you have to choose the principles.

thanks Grido. it's my mistake and I'll have to live with it.

From memory (READ: have not experienced this, this is just what I have heard), you can get your missing principle by going to an altar that would otherwise grant that principle, and it will give you it when you sacc a creature there (that has enough experience to grant principle raise).

Otherwise, get a Wishpoint and Petition Mur/Council (Council would be best)

Okay. I understand what you mean by the altar. I'll see if it will grant me an extra principle. I suppose the wishpoint will be my last resort. It's good to know that I have some options. Thanks for all of your replies.

Just to clarify, unless things have changed in that department since the end of last year-As far as I'm aware going to MP6 even if you have completed MP5 storymode through to the end does not grant you another principle.
