... you know what you're talking about.

The
Mega Burning Project event is back and for those of you who haven’t participated in this event in the past, you can select one new character to get two free levels every time they level up! Pro tip: You’ll want to burn your character at level 2 or 5 to get the most benefit.
Several things are wrong with that "Pro tip".
First of all, You can't always (or at all?) Burn a character under level 10.
- If this event is like the last few, Burning only starts at level 10, even if you initiate it before that. This is to avoid messing up class tutorials.
- Many classes have a tutorial that takes them straight from level 1 to 10 (i.e., you do the entire tutorial at level 1, and then level up at once to 10), so you can't stop at 2 or 5 to start the Burning.
This wouldn't be so bad, if he'd explained the reasoning behind starting at 2 or 5, so the same logic could be applied above 10.
But ah, that logic is faulty anyway. It was right for a Burning Project that goes up to level 150, but not for this one which only goes to 130 (according to other info on the micro-site).
If the Burning goes up to level 130, and you want your last Burned level-up to take you to 132, you want to start your Burning at a level that is divisible by 3.
If you start your burning at 2 or 5 as the "Pro tip" suggests, then since each level-up adds 3 levels in total, you'll end up at 131.
But that's not all!
If our Mega Burning Project is the
same one KMS had, then you can't choose what level to start the burn anyway! You must designate a character as Burning when you create it, and the burn will start at level 10.
TL:DR: Corrected Pro tip: If you have a choice in the matter, start your burning at level 12 to get the most benefit.
