[X] My Assistant

First time trying GF post patch. Using gems in Grindfest no longer seems to be an instant effect...

16 8 Your spike shield hits In Memory Of Dark Mages Mk4v3 for 430 points of wind damage.
16 7 In Memory Of Dark Mages Mk4v3 uses Corruption, and hits you for 5317 crushing damage
16 6 Your spirit shield absorbs 424 points of damage from the attack into 4 points of spirit damage.
16 5 Lady Vashj gains the effect Turbulent Air.
16 4 Your spike shield hits Lady Vashj for 41 points of wind damage.
16 3 Lady Vashj hits you for 597 piercing damage.
16 2 Recovered 200 points of spirit.
16 1 You use Spirit Gem.

@tenboro, is this intended?

Did not have something similar happen with mana gems though.

If it matters, I was using spirit stance at the time.

Let me guess,15 turn 'Lady Vashj' and 'In Memory Of Dark Mages Mk4v3' just recovered from stun status.

And fcking drop chance,havne't get any useful stuff,this drop system should be big bug,FFS

Can I take 100 average drop from arena bonus to change Peerless staff from 10b? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

well guess i need a new game to play (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

I have to say, drop 200 credit instead much better,never see useful stuff after patch.

love the changes, especially the battle items

13 19 You gain 5000 Credits!
13 18 You gain 1080153 EXP!
13 17 Tsukiko Tsutsukakushi dropped [25x Crystal of Lightning]
13 16 Tsukiko Tsutsukakushi dropped [25x Crystal of Tempest]
13 15 Lily White Fiary dropped [25x Crystal of Fortitude]
13 14 Yocchan dropped [25x Crystal of Corruption]
13 13 Blabla dropped [25x Crystal of Fortitude]
13 12 Xt-03 dropped [25x Crystal of Finesse]

Hellfest @ Crys3 gives 25 crystal maximum now :/

This gave me an idea. Completely serious "Arena" suggestion: X rounds of Riddlemasters in a row, no combat whatsoever (where X = the player's level).

Pros:
-easy to implement (no new battle mechanisms / monster abilities)
-difficult to bot
-no item durability loss from "defeat"
-completely "fair" (no difference between a player using Peerless mage gear vs. an unarmed player)
-no complaints about how consumables are too weak / too expensive / don't drop enough / cooldown is too long

Cons:
-cannot go afk / take a break
-serious consequences if your computer / internet lags
-no combat = monsters won't defeat players = no gifts

Interesting idea... but are there more than just the Mane6 in Riddlemaster puzzles?
I have learned - through much profanity and gnashing of teeth -- who Rarity and Applejack etc. are
I don't know who (or even what) a 'Scootaloo' is

what's the Arena clear? A figurine? A 12-pack of chilled, refreshing Soul Fragments?

Another issue I've found is that with the new system, pack rat just isn't really that useful anymore.

Would it be possible to get another training that reduces the cooldowns?

Currently it still is quite useful at least until the old pots are baleted.

What I find funny, actually absolutely fucking hilarious, is the fact we have now gone full circle, except this time there is a way to long items to your level.

Way way way back when the drop system was similar to now, how equips drop and they are your level. Back then, you could Item World equips to keep them at your level, 1-3 levels per item world, and only once a day. This new system with fragments is much superior in all regards, especially if you add in the fact that the drop quality is much higher then back then (except for a few stats still not being rolled quite right yet).

If we had gone straight from that system to this one, there would have been rejoicing, but alas, we have been spoiled with the unlocked equipment that is still floating around. Still, the market will revitalize once people are used to it and soulbinding restrictions loosen up. Just going to be painful for now.

I'm pretty sure it was 24 before, but the wiki table says 23. And if you use the actual equation, it should be 24. So obviously something changed.

Nope. Back then you could equip things that were lower level than you and it would scale down AND you could level it up more so the base increase a bit (maybe, I don't remember that last part too well)

Imagine danixxx and jenga doing 500 rounds of riddlemaster (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

Then I realise I'd be doing 400+ myself.

nope, even if people went from that system, people would still whine about the significant cost to keep their gears relevant. 1m back then was a pretty big deal. Exp gain was a lot lower too, so outdated gear isn't as much of an issue (iirc, level 300 used to be a massive achievement)

Yet... need another 50 SF if wanna soul fuse it... so 300 of those... legendary drops are not quite the incentive to play HV anymore... dont?

Nope.. the legendary is trash, and most of it. Even peerless doesn't guarantee you it's a 'usable' peerleess..

True, but back then shadow frags would have cost a lot less, probably would have been 100k

I just shrine 500 artifacts. Here's the result:

90 ED 103 Elixir 87x2 Hath 220k Crystal

Compared to pre-patch shrine result

99 ED 64 Elixir 50 Pill 93x2 Hath 194k Crystal

So basically Happy Pill is turned into Last Elixir?

HVerse is becoming more complicated to play :/....

Not to mention that, if you were below level 100, grinding was virtually impossible as your only source of healing was from Health pots. Not to mention that all the subbosses had a high chance of killing you in a single attack, and you would actually lose credits if you failed an arena run.


Glad I'm not the only one that recognized how the system has gone full circle though (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
