[X] My Assistant

Right, got it fixed. Yeah, I should do the settings outside combat, they don't seem to work in combat (or at least I can't get it working). Funny thing is, I can't get the outside battle link working at all, even with HV utils disabled, I get nothing. Weird, no?

Edit: I get the link when I open HV in a new tab, not when I open in new window which I usually do.

I got the setup finally done. I will try it later today in Grindfest. I'm curious if the 'start with T3 on click' will allow me to go from round 750 to 1000. I'll let you all know.

For once, something really interested me in lottery, but despite going as far as 2000 tickets, I didn't get the "Peerless Mithril Buckler of the Battlecaster" (or anything at all) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) .
Could have tried replaying 1H for a bit with that.

re: Soul Catcher, it's not just bad because of how long it takes to pay off, but also because of how slowly it's delivered...

People can ask tenboro to make another tree of that.
Like,
lv2 costs 1000h 20/day
2000h 30
4000h 40

My first monster over PL1000... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

The primary reason for soul catcher being a bad perk is it provides no incentive for active players, i.e. who can consistently loot 60 soul fragments everyday.
It's good only if you go idle or don't have enough time to gather the daily limit from play the random encounters.

I really don't understand why it doesn't increase the daily cap; hell, increasing the cap by 10 without giving the free 10 fragments would make a better perk than what we have now.

The income from the perk isn't 10 soul fragments = 10k a day. Because if you aren't in dire need of soulfusing an item, nobody buys it for 1k a piece.
So the daily income is AT MAX 10k a day, provided you need to use the fragments AND you can't get yourself to complete the 24 REs cuz you are so busy.
Usually it's just every week of having it on and not doing all the RE will allow you to soulfuse something one day quicker.

But the fundamental issue is that soul fragments essentially become trash sooner or later. Look at all the old players with 30k soul fragments with nowhere to use them.

There's a thing that most players don't understand when it comes to hath perks.
They're mostly there for a player's comfort of play, to be convenient, not to be investments with a ROI.

Furthermore, it's even more stupid to calculate the ROI of that perk, when no one ever calculates the ROI of things like Evil Enchantress, Vigorous Vitality, or God knows what else.

Aside from this, accomplished today: 0.85 dark prof factor. Now my damage feels a bit more consistent. Can't wait to reach 0.90 when my base prof will be higher. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

no one ever calculates the ROI of things like Evil Enchantress, Vigorous Vitality, or God knows what else.

Of course, it's hard to calculate those & no way other than through battles. The variables ain't static, the monsters can be upgraded anytime.

re: Soul Catcher, it's not just bad because of how long it takes to pay off, but also because of how slowly it's delivered... you're essentially saying that you're going to need every soul fragment possible for the next 6 months, including all the ones you'll be getting from REs along the way, and then AFTER that point (when it starts to actually be a profitable choice) you'll still need even more. And you'll have to wait for those, too.
In other words... are you going to need more than 2000 (because, you could've just bought that many) extra soul fragments, on top of RE income, in 6 months time? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
If you guys all have the hath to burn though, send it my way (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

I disagree with you, but cannot tell you why because my answer is tl/dr (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

This is really a bad idea (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Aaand ... for once, I agree with you. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

Though my reasons for considering it a value and getting it are others then this, but this is also true enough (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Ehm, i have to disagree with you now. "What bad is for active player, can be far from that for not so active player." What is too long about that? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

i never regretted unlocking soul catcher. it has paid off by now, and i still have plenty of gear i want to soulfuse

Yep, works without gum or vase. Reached 1000 rounds without dying by switching to monsterbation setting with T3 dark spell not in hover rotation, but on left click with toggle hover.

Play is a bit slower, but much more cost effective than using gum or vase.

that's good to hear. i find it smooth and fast enough to do at least one full GF clear per week from now on

Got my 8th monster. Didn't realize accumulating chaos tokens would be so easy if you just clear everything in arena at lowest difficulty.

Also it seems there isn't much incentive to get high monster levels other than making the thing visible to other players in fights, because supposedly the bindings are available at all levels. imo I think this should be reworked in a way that higher level is actually worth pursuing. Something like decreasing the interval of guaranteed drops from 3 days to a week/2 weeks. Then for individual monsters to have increased droprates depending on their level.

Fourth P5S4

I've been saying that for years. When I used to play a lot, they would drop on Normal more than any other setting.

At higher levels you also get high-grade materials, and the possibility to have a greater gift factor.
Still, nothing worthy of spending millions in crystals packs. Just restoring the morale with the crystals is way enough.

Lv. 480 (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Only 20 left to go. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

If nothing goes wrong (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) , I'll be 500 in a year.

LOL. You should charge fix price if you feel that way.
Whether the customers keep coming, there's no guarantee.

Level 480!! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) It is time for a new round of exchanges. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

Total: 1000 Precursor Artifact.

Result:
19,7%　2 Hath
_0,6%　Attribute Point
20,6%　Last Elixir
19,1%　Energy Drink
40,0%　1000 x Crystals

According to Wiki, the chances are estimated:
20%　　　　2 Hath
00~10%　　Attribute Point
20%　　　　Last Elixir
20%　　　　Energy Drink
40%　　　　1000 x Crystals

Final Considerations:

Positive point: +6 PAB (current situation: 288 of 288 ---> +48/+48/+48/+48/+48/+48). (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) This time I needed 615 artifacts until I got the 6 PABs (in previous times were respectively 473 and 393). This is getting progressively more difficult. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Negative point 1: Last Elixir > Hath > Energy Drink (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif)

Negative point 2: Bad distribution of the crystals, as usual. Well, I guess everyone already knows that. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)
