That's the opposite way you should go.
You should increase your attack and block.
Not decrease damage for a little bit of physical mitigation. (leaving out magical btw)

Hollowforged rapier, mag+ power armors with 3 attributes and a force shield.
That's the first step.

Plate is a step backwards (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

5001 magic base damage

I decided to keep trying my luck on the rapier with a failed potency, came out well, it'll just be like the tiny speck of dirt you can't clean from an almost-clean surface, a badly installed tile, a different colored thing in an assortment of a single color selection, something a couple of milimeters away from being perfectly lined up

Yep... Looks like my lists.

But joebob newbie with 3 posts and lvl 280 gets a Peerless gem.

What has 10b done with the equations?
I honestly feel he's deliberately nerfed the abilities of contributors with training/perks to below newbie status.
It's the only explanation for this entire year.
My RNG hasn't swung positive for anything this entire year. Nothing.

Oh so was a smart move on my part to avoid risking death in PF and just mine normal/SG arenas for trophies? Doing other arenas at PF had proven to be a joke haul of exq gear at best for a long time. The era of mag drops has all but ended in my experience.

Now that i fixed my bad ping, Pfudor DwD runs are easier (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

If some people could stop complaining about losing the lottery while they seem to be rich enough to throw in 20k tickets x2 everyday, that'd be great.

If some people could break open their wallets, and start living in contributor's shoes to see how it is....
Yeah.... that'd be great.

or at least confine them in poor players club.

We're not poor, and there isn't a jilted contributor's club.

And because Hath is worth absolutly nothing, buying GP is a real problem. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

That too.

But these players are not poor. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Inflicting more damage isn't the breaking point between my success in a place or not. I'm running IWTBTH, and the bottleneck for me is getting hit with massive spikes of damage from mana/spirit attacks. Not just a single attack, but several of them in a row. Can't cure, full cure, potion, and spark of life fast enough.

Yeah, i dont think that is the best idea and at your level i didnt play on IWTBTH, back then even the highest difficulty FYI. I never used SoL, not even today. But i play 1H since a long time. And i know what keeps an 1H Player alive is, damage, block chance, parry, mitigations, in that order. The faster you kill them all, the less attacks you have to taken and the less chances they even have to get around your block and parry.

I switched from power to plate, which lets me upgrade my armor as well as pack in more base phys mitigation (can't afford the millions for actuators for power). Suddenly a lot of those attacks don't spark me anymore. I can recover from them and heal through them.

I guess you need your time to beat all the arenas you want to bet. But i assure you, with a lower difficulty, your clearing speed would be much faster, you would need much less mana, tbh i dont even have full cure in my skill setup, never needed it. And actuators dont cost millions. You can even get one for 60k with a thread in WTB. Together with all the other bindings you had to buy, that is really not the world. And if you just buy them one buy one, who hell would blame you for that? No one, sure as sure.

Overall, it feels like reducing interference and improving mitigations will let me push into pfudor. As long as it isn't too expensive to recover from random spikes/bursts, hoverplay lets me clear in a timely manner.

You will stop care about interference quite quickly. I cant even remember when i even one thought about it.

Damage only matters if it significantly decreases the number of hits needed to clear an entire round. 1h style accomplishes that through counter attacks, which don't seem to get elemental strikes

No, counter attacks dont do most of the damage with 1H. For me it is around 10~20%. That is all. Most damage is dealt by normal attacks. And no, counter dont do elemental strikes and also they dont crit. I care mostly about the stun effect of them. Otherwhise they dont do that much for me, only sometimes when in DwD the SG a split up that much, i have to cover with imperil all monsters, counter sometimes manage to kill the normal monsters in the same time in need for the SG.

(and my rapier is already ethereal).

What just means you dont get hollowforged at end of IW but an random elemental strike. What would still make a huge impact on your damage output.

Surviving with impunity and letting the opponents take a lot of swings speeds up my runs more than making my clicks hurt more.

If that would be true, the Peerl Savage Power Gauntlets of Slaughter that are coming up in supers auction this week, wouldnt got for much. But it will, sure as sure.

Capacitor and juggernaut on my armor pieces will help that a lot more than elemental strike will.

I disagree, especially for cap, cap i a nice to have but dont really need to for 1H.

But do as you like, i just play 1H for a few years, so what do i know? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Liar. I see you quite often in the winners list, so you certainly don't spend only 100 tickets everyday.
100 tickets, that's what I do spend everyday (50 per auction), and I almost never win anything. At best I can throw in 2k once every 2-3 weeks.

Anyway, be it 20k or only 1k everyday, you shouldn't be complaining with everything that you're already winning, while a big share of the playerbase will probably never win anything in their entire life.

I'm really not lying. For a long time I opted out of the lotteries, figuring I would never win.
When I started playing the lotteries again, I decided I would play for the tokens, not so much the gear, and I had 50m gp saved up (50,000 tickets worth)

Already I am back down to 13m

When I run out of gp, I will need to choose between buying gp to play, or stopping again.

Also, I have only ever won 2 gears from the lotteries:
Demonic oak staff of heimdall, and
Savage power helm of balance.

not sure admin will allow this. if it's only a handful of them with a proper theme, then should be alright. otherwise, there could be a bit of trouble.

@decon congrats on the 110 token win. Was that off a 50 ticket buy in?
I was going for the gauntlets, so bought 10% of the tickets (11,100/109,720). It's a bummer I didn't get the item, but 110 chaos tokens isn't too shabby either (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Now down to 8,761,812 GP

Likely won't ever aim for the higher ones. It's damn difficult getting these perks as it is without any adopted servers or H@H (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

Theme: riddlemaster's accidentally suggestive selfcest?

dunno. just keep the overall amount of images low. otherwise admin may start to see that as a chance for botters to earn free test material. i don't see it as ending particularly well.

100 tickets, that's what I do spend everyday (50 per auction), and I almost never win anything. At best I can throw in

Well, Congrats on your latest win of 110 Chaos tokens!

It seems you really do have the winning approach with 100 tickets a day.
I'm going to copy your approach and close my wallet.
The rest of my adopt a servers run out in February, and that will be it.

My whining of contributing 5 digits to this site while not even placing will cease.

I'll follow your lead.

Last week in an auction i bought a decent stub equipment (maybe even paid a bit, 250k, too much but i wanted one cheap enough but still good to swap the to lower level i goth months ago).

Having soulfused it to equip it i decided to IW it to 10 just to get an extra bonus expecting something shitty.

No, the once in a while 2k tickets, combined with overluck. That's how I got all my prices, except one peerless I got for throwing 20k after a long absence.
I just use very little tickets on everything, and then empty my wallet only for the things I really want. I also gave up trying to win anything in the overticketted lotteries. Except I was owning 2k tickets out of 4k in that one...
