1 3 You have been defeated. 1 2 Scary Ghost hits you for 1457 physical damage.
0 1 Initializing Grindfest (Round 1062) ... 0 0 Battle Start!
Another new record for Normalfest. I'm amazed I didn't run into a single boss in all that. And I saw my first captcha lol. I don't often do grindfests.

Well this is my last HV night. Starting tomorrow I will be officially retired of HV or e-hentai for that matter, Maybe just a challenge or even look at the forums from time to time. Why I'm saying this since no ones cares, and why in this thread? Well remember what I said in here? Unless Snowflake, played with me a gave me only good roll over 900 rounds, I just figure out to overcome the bad roles, and beat End of Days, any God on battletoads, or The Twilight if it's like EoD, and doesn't have more than a legendary per round (referring to any kind of legendary) till the last round. (Don't need soul stones as well) Since it was a poor amount of data (1 legendary), I won't say I can beat EoD 100% times, but I will say I have 100% sure I can beat EoD. Since oblivious I won't actually beat any of these challenges for a long time, I'll give the answer later in a few hours, letting you guys to think about it first (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) (Come on I gave too many clues about this, does anyone actually don't discover the solution?)

*Sigh* No interest heh? So double post. First 20 burden, and 189 action speed, then DW with this, and this, and Heart Seeker is equal to a single enemy 100% time stunned. You only need magic regen to cover Heart Seeker cost (which is very easy with +100% magic regen). Actually stun did expire sometimes, but I would stun it right after, so to die in EoD, you'll need to miss exactly at that point, and then to be extremity unlucky and being hit by the spirit attack.

3 4 You have been defeated. 3 3 White Bunneh hits you for 8079 piercing damage.

Managed to beat a Dalek at round 798 with 3 casts of Wrath of Thor and a little luck, but bosses are basically death at that level of a Grindfest.

(IMG:[ i52.tinypic.com] http://i52.tinypic.com/neaou9.png) Round 1883 (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I kept waiting for a boss to appear and horribly rape me. I probably could have kept going until I hit one, if I had thought to bring some spirit items. Hmmm, I kinda wanted to get to 2000 too. X-magic might help, since it might make Cure not totally useless. Although around that point even normal enemies can one shot me at full hp if they crit. What's the highest anyone's done? Or bothered to do I might say. This post has been edited by Conquest101: Sep 9 2010, 16:33

I think someone did 8000 back before the mobs got stronger each round. Now, I think boggy holds the record at 3000ish. But I could be wrong...

Or bothered to do I might say. After hitting level 200(yes X-magic also rocks you'll see), and switching my staff for a "focus", I only get a monster survived (resisted of course) every 10 rounds, no problem with mind reapers or mantras since you can use higher tiers, for bosses, well killing very fast is the key, and spark so I survive always, but this for what? I yes that's because once you reach this point of mcc, power and level, even the SP is recovered fast enough for spark, cure is practical useless, and yes that means that this become more a matter of luck/concentration how much farther way you go on NormalFest. I don't know how Boggyb reached, but it's pointless, since probably he can reach 10.000 or 20.000, just that's too much of a effort don't you think? IMO HardFest should be now the way to track how "good" your griding mage set is.

I'd say Battletoadfest is a better indicator. And I mean battletoadfest without using ether theft to restore mana.

I agree with the 2nd part, but not with the 1st, since the best "testing difficulty" depends directly on the player's gear/level/prof. This post has been edited by cmdct: Sep 11 2010, 03:06

On a somewhat related note, what's the standard practice for clearing the higher arenas on Battletoads? I ask because I'm a few levels out from the Trio and would like to attempt it at BT for the sake of maybe getting an exquisite.
I believe I have to sleep enemies and fight them one at a time? If so, I need to work on getting my deprecating prof. capped or close to it at least. The efficiency of that would seem bad once I hit 5/6 enemies to a round. Especially since I usually get hit before I'm done sleeping that many enemies, though I would assume X-magic will help with this. Or does X-magic make it possible to actually nuke enemies without getting horribly mauled? I doubt it, but I figure I'd ask.
Edit: Hmm probably should have asked this in the Experts thread. My bad.

I'd only suggest that on the last round.

Hmm, so it's possible to clear the 6 enemy, 5 miniboss rounds with regular nuking? As it stands right now, I can't manage it. The damage I take is too high.

Define what you mean by "regular nuking". I wouldn't suggest attempting to power through every round non-stop. It can be done, but it will leave you with no mana elixirs in the last round where they are most useful. Any time you end a round with a single living enemy, I would suggest attempting to regain some mana via ether theft and recasting any essential spell that has ran low.

That's basically what I meant. Using the usual round of elemental spells and not relying on sleep. I understand that I probably shouldn't go through all 100 rounds non-stop heh. Still, if it's doable that way, it's certainly better than the tedious trudge I thought I'd have to deal with in order to do it. Thanks Boggy. Edit: And yeah, good idea. I PM'd toro. Worst comes to worst, I'll just try it and see lol. This post has been edited by Conquest101: Sep 11 2010, 06:55
