Is there a way we can leech stats. Maybe have the leeches in our inventory and deduct them like we add stats. Or use our EXP for leeching would work too.

I'm half asleep, too 😅 I saw the word training and was a little confused about what exactly was being asked so I tried to cover all the bases :P
EXP costs are T10-T12 are 1,500 for health, 1,000 for level, and 1,250 for everything else, but for T13 it jumps to three times as much, so 4,500 for health, 3,000 for level, and 3,750 for everything else. That's why it is recommended you spend as much EXP as possible before T13 and save your item boosters for T13 when the boosting through EXP is much tougher.
I'm kinda confused what you're asking..? You can just use the leeches from your inventory already, no?

I wonder why you didn't notice it when you transitioned from T10 to T11, haha. I really like that they are the same, but it makes that jump in T13 all the more painful. Enjoy the cheap EXP while it lasts :P
Yes, you can use leeches in your inventory... one by one. But if say you had 20 leeches, it would leech 40 stats from the defense leeches in your inventory. Or better yet, just use battle tokens to leech stats from your pet. I just leeched/used 500 defense leeches so I can get 1000 HP for my battle pet. LOTS of clicking. That's because my pet is at 34,998 stats. Hate being capped.

Ah, that makes sense, LOL. Don't worry about it, though! It's never too late to start battling :) You and Tziety have come very far this year.
That's a suggestion to bring up with the BAs I'm afraid, since that's going beyond a simple UI change.

No worries, I think I'm done leeching for awhile. Pretty happy with my pet's build. BUT, you can never have enough HP. XD

Regarding the leeches, I wonder if it wouldn't be easier to just ... make bigger leeches? Like a broodleech, or paramnesia leech or something. Something that costs more, obviously, but leeches more, so if people really want to adjust their stats, or REALLY weren't paying attention when training, they could do it easier.

That's not a bad idea imo. Maybe make a thread in the suggestions forums? That way it doesn't get buried in an unrelated thread, and the BAs can see it eventually c:

Should the Total row at the bottom of the Spend EXP table have its entries swapped? Since you swapped the columns for "Increase Stat By" and "EXP Cost Per Point" (at my suggestion, yay!) then those two are misaligned -- EXP under the Points column and Points under the EXP column.

Really loving these changes! Thanks for all your hard work.
The only thing that I wish were a little easier were calculating the level x 2.5 for training other stats. My second battle pet I have all the exp banked right now and just use it to raise levels when needed to autotrain. If I don't want to math I am essentially raising by one, refreshing the training page, and repeating until it happens. I doubt there is an easy UI fix for that, but that is my longtime main annoyance :)
is there a reason you try so hard not to buy more levels than you need, at any given moment? isn't it cheaper to buy more levels before autotraining brings you to the next tier, because the levels will be cheaper?
I might be confused what you're asking actually

Primarily because autotraining pricing is determined by the levels and I am trying to be as cost efficient as possible (aka stingy) with this pet! :P
Essentially I am not moving tiers (so the experience costs aren't raising), I am buying a few levels at a time to train as needed. To be more clear, Bad Horse is like mid-high tier 6 with like 60k exp banked. I autotrain all stats but level, so when I can't train anything but level I use experience to raise level up enough to be able to train other stats (because you can only train those 2.5x your level).
Essentially I am just wishing there was a better/easier way to calculate how many levels I need to be able to train something else without having to be like "I am level 300... what is 301, 302, etc". I am just being lazy, but I do know there are other battlers that tend to use their exp to raise a couple levels at a time as needed (the ones voicing annoyance at this UI change, probably).
Sorry for rambling and hope this is more clear... I haven't had enough coffee yet and my office is a freaking construction zone so I am having a difficult time concentrating lol
