“The build relies on a particular interpretation of the Manipulate Form ability, which allows the user to raise a stat on another character to the same level as the user’s corresponding stat. Pun-Pun can only attain apotheosis if this refers to the user’s modified stat: the infinite-stats exploit only works if Pun-Pun can (1) give himself a stat bonus, (2) raise his familiar’s stat to the same level (permanently), (3) command his familiar to use Manipulate Form on Pun-Pun, raising Pun-Pun’s stat permanently, 40 goto 10.”
