Konata Cleared!


162 10 You gain 25090 Credits!
162 9 You gain 5529.63 EXP!
162 8 Your HP and MP have been fully restored!

162 4 You are Victorious!
162 3 Regeneration restores you with 370 points of health.
162 2 Konata has been defeated.
162 1 You hit Konata for 41 piercing damage.

160 3 You evade the attack from Konata.
160 2 Konata uses Petanko Smash

150 5 Timotei hits you for 1116 soul damage. <-- WTF? Absorb was up and it's not a "blast" [Crit]
150 4 Konata casts Timotei

123 3 The hostile spell is drained. You gain 29 Magic Points.
123 2 Konata casts Timotei

72 3 The hostile spell is drained. You gain 27 Magic Points.
72 2 Konata casts Timotei

24 5 The hostile spell is drained. You gain 36 Magic Points.
24 4 Konata casts Timotei

0 2 Spawned Monster A: MID=20 (Konata) LV=111 HP=53630 MP=39 SP=97 NA=63 Type=hostile
0 1 Initializing arena challenge #105 (Round 1 / 1) ...
0 0 Battle Start!

First Ever Legendary Kill.

"Konata is a slight increase in difficulty above the Bosses?!!" She was a hell of a lot harder then the Boss RoBs, which I breezed through. I burned 4 Godly Mana Potions having to recast Support/Depreciating Spells, and a Health Elixir when Absorb failed to catch a non-Crit Timotei. Damn, I must have spent a third of my turns casting some kind of S/D spell.

Used a Scroll of Avatar and the Gods, and later Scroll of Life. Two Mana Elixirs were unused. Spark never did go off.

DW - Rapier + Dagger. 4 Cloth (3 Elem + 1 Cheetah) + 1 Thunder-Child Plate. Ironically, no Elem magic used by me, and no successful Electric Petanko Smash.

Absorb (with 5 AP) only has a 75% chance to catch spells. Out of curiosity, how much does Absorb cost for you to cast?

I guess this depends on perspective. I didn't find her to be much harder than the bosses, back at that level, but by harder I mean "more difficult to kill." She took longer to kill, sure, but it wasn't any more difficult than fighting, say, Dalek. While I found Mikuru, and especially Ryouko and Yuki, much harder to kill than Konata.

Konata down

164 10 You gain 25091 Credits!
164 9 You gain 1137.93 EXP!
164 8 Your HP and MP have been fully restored!
164 7 Arena Token Bonus! Received:
[Token of Blood]
164 6 Arena Clear Bonus! Received:
[Superior Mana Draught]
164 5 Konata dropped [Lock of Blue Hair]
164 4 You are Victorious!

I just hit 75 and felt like bitch slapping her for failing to make me laugh during the Lucky Star OVA.

I used four godly mana pots, avatar scroll and a god scroll. Nothing she could throw at me would 1HKO but I'm not sure if I should go straight for Mikuru yet.

EDIT:

Mikuru down

210 11 You gain 25164 Credits!
210 10 You gain 1907.8 EXP!
210 9 Your HP and MP have been fully restored!
210 8 Arena Token Bonus! Received:
[Token of Healing]
210 7 Arena Clear Bonus! Received:
[Godly Health Potion]
210 6 Mikuru Asahina dropped [Bunny-Girl Costume]
210 5 You are Victorious!
210 4 Regen restores you with 43 points of health.
210 3 Mikuru Asahina has been defeated.
210 2 Purge hits Mikuru Asahina for 962 holy damage.
210 1 You cast Purge.

Considerably more difficult. I used everything but the mana elixir I had packed (consumed 6x godly mana draughts, 1 avatar scroll, 1 god scroll). Scroll spark triggered towards the end of the fight (glad to know it doesn't require SP as I was out). Her fourth spirit attack connected and did more than my life even with bewilder up. If the other two are supposed to be even harder I don't believe I stand a chance as I am now.

Sorry, I set a new record.

HardFest cleared to round 127 (No items)
(IMG:[i48.tinypic.com] http://i48.tinypic.com/vmt2ed.png)


OK, I lied; I did use 1 Greater Mana Draught, but that's because I ran into ManBearPig in round 80. Bosses on Hard simply take shitloads of mana to take down, especially when their weakened melee attacks hit for 600+. The draught didn't leave me with any more mana than what I had when I started the round, though, so it doesn't really count.

With the Bosses, I dropped a few scrolls and then went at them with DW PA+Poison+Bleed and Regen up. Regen was usually enough to counter their Attack damage. I even forgot to Weaken one of them until halfway through. With Konata, I had to casting Support and Depreciating spells and had to cast Cure II a few times, and never with a Boss RoB. The Bosses are much, much easier, unless you forgot to switch out your staff for your Rapir and Dagger like this...

Endgame Cleared as a Mage

Only my second attempt at Endgame. While I was building up my Overcharge in Round 1, I noticed I was doing Crushing damage (Rapiers do Piercing). "Oh, fuck, this is not going to be fun." So, I ended up going 7 Rounds of Whack-a-Mole with my Staff, before switching to Elemental Magic when the mid-bosses arrived. I continued that until I cleared the regular mobs and mid-bosses from the Final Round. I started the Final Round with Spark of Life, good decision, as it sparked on turn 10. Shortly afterwards, I remembered I had a Scroll of the Avatar and the Gods and used both. (D'err) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Anyways, lots of casting Weaken, Bewilder, Poison, and Soul Harvest, plus an Absorb, several Ether Thefts and Ripened Souls and another Spark going off later...

Thought I'd mention that I just cleared Endgame with no items used. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

It was pretty close, mind you. If Absorb hadn't triggered near the end, when I was down to 1MP, I might have had to take one of my precious Average Mana Potions...

Used 3 mana elixirs and 2 god scrolls on each. Not as bad as I was expecting thanks to all the advice from various threads. Looking forward to my chance to challenge the gods.

This wasn't quite as bad as I'd expected it to be. With Hurricane (which I acquired after I cleared New Wings on Hard) Manthras are much easier (and cheaper) to kill.

I used 2 Greater and 6 Godly Mana pots. I'm gonna try it on Nightmare tomorrow.

Was really unlucky in the Ryouko fight, every single one of her Impalers got past my Evade/Block, draining my SP which forced me to switch to Silence strats halfway through.

And Real Life kicked my ass. Well not completely. I got him down about 25% after using 3 items and then internet shutdown 2 turns after Spark stopped while waiting for my mana to fill. Hit me for 3 times my max health too. Oh well. Wait and try again tomorrow. At least beating the three legendaries makes up for the loss.

Bleh, I could only do 56 rounds of Cakefest as of level 26.

I'm not sure how I should distribute my Stats and Abilities though.

An elemental bonus of +80 from my equipment and 120 elemental prof. Also luck.
I can get to round 50-60 with no trouble, but from then on it's a matter of getting mana gems
and second winds at the right times. I can't count how many times I'd finally decide to use a
potion, only to get a second wind at the end of the round.
Did you see how many rounds coredumperror did on hard?! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Cleared Endgame yesterday using a rapier and a shield. Cleared it today again as mage.

Then I got a little carefree and wanted to clear Twisted Plots as a mage...

Mithra was a lot harder to kill as a mage than Dalek...I've to rise my divine proficiency!
