[X] My Assistant

As soon as the new update was activated I managed to get up past Round 22 on grindfest that is the highest i have managed to ever achieve.

Just knocked out Road Less Travelled (#8) and A Rolling Stone (#9) on Hard since the last update. Gonna try to clear Blazing Field and Fresh Meat once I regen.

after enabling equipment i've reached 93 grindfest on cake(86 before first balance changes and 7 lvls more after)
it could be really endless with 100% chance of offhand attack and bleeding

Thats funny, because i can't even reach level 12 anymore (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Great.

And I've never gotten past 17 or so >_> Hopefully my DW proficiency will go up relatively fast cause I like being able to basically one shot things cause of the off-hand proc, but it's somewhat rare because my DW prof isn't even half my level.

Cure seems to help alot.

Great.

its just because of two things:
1)almost any creep died from one hit(exep minibosses, they died from 2 hits)
2)some time earlier i've spend some C to buy cheepest(below 500c) light armor, so only hits from near-my-lvl creeps & magical hits damaged me, but cure and 2nd wind restored damage much faster

anyway now my secret tactic "slash&cure" helps me to pass 20th lvl of cake grind with ease

1. Your proficiencies have a chance to keep up with your level because they didn't get implemented when you were lvl 79
2. mobs hit you for what? 20 damage ? 30 ? Mine hit 100+ on cake. each. thats with shield up. and heavy armor.

So yes it would be very nice if everyone level 70 + got +10 in all proficiencies just to be able to keep up.

Been in Cakefest for nearly an hour, over level 100, and I missed my hourly...still going strong.....

As of now, having a setup of melee equipment, would it be wise to reset my abilities and just get rid of all the elemental skills and put them all in health tank, magic tank and the rest?

Two midbosses in Cakefest, still going strong, getting ready to miss my next hourly, omg when will it end......

How on earth do you even be able to pull off 175 rounds...I manged to pull off 32 rounds before i fall.

I am wearing nearly an entire suit of plate armor (only missing shoes) and have a sword that procs Bleed. I don't even need to cast Shield and most attacks get either blocked, dodged, or do 0 damage. Second Winds and the rare Cure top me off.

Also almost 2 hours in, 195 rounds, I just earned an entire level in Cakefest.

Does bleed works like poison?

Yeah, but in only lasts two or three turns right now and it has a low proc chance. Depends on the weapon and how Snowflake generated its stats.

that is pretty amazing cmal and I too also gained a full lvl doing Cakefest all day I started at 11am and I just leveled up to lvl.19 about 10mins ago I would probably still be grinding but I only have and Average Bronze Axe and Average Bronze-Trimmed Cotton Gloves that is all of the equipment that I have earned since weapons and armor have been introduced into the HV (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Fun Fact: You can trigger your New Dawn event while in Grindfest.

Just cleared Round 264. Why won't it end? Why?

Do what I did and just try and buy some cheap weapons from the bazzar (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

No more...that's it, I can't do any more. After 3 hours and 350 rounds of Cakefest, I'm done. I can't go on any more. I could probably keep going, but I'm tired. I have other things I need to do. I just went in there to do a couple of rounds to check some things out. My arm kinda hurts....

Cmal, it's easy

You're level 42. monsters piss on you in terms of attacks.
Try that again when you hit 75+ (you know, when they actually have claws and teeth and sharp objects that can hurt you.
