Ah, I don't use spark. Or health potions. I'm finally a true spellsword, and it works well for me.
1/3 the way through Real Life... it's gonna be close...
crap I think I'm gonna miss by a bit, sadness. Shoulda bought more item slots.
Fuuuuuuck. 15k out of 160k remaining. I'ma do It again, but not suck this time.
Double fuck, I forgot I can't try again until tomorrow. Tomorow you will meet your end Real Life... I'll not be a cocky bastard and go in with godly mana draughts. Tis elixers for you.

I could probably swap the health potions out for more mana potions now that there's Cure II, but with Regen being hideously nerfed and my magic gimped by interference from being a tank I don't know if I should drop them completely. Either way, I spend half of that last round casting what amount to support spells. Much harder being a Paladin these last few updates. You can take and recover chip damage from the shit mobs, but once the big fish start showing up you're SOL. Meanwhile, the non-heavies just evade everything and only get raped hard if they get hit but its no sweat since they're not losing 40% of their curative proficiency.

Feeling bit disappointed... just couple levels lower I used to be able to do runs of 6-8 rounds on normal in grindfest after the recent HV update, but now I can barely last 4-5 rounds. Level 14-15 monsters deals quite a bit of damage compared to their counterparts only couple of levels lower - especially if you run into a group of them of same ranges.
I wonder if investing too heavily into dex, agi, and str at start was bad idea after all.
EDIT: Oh wait, I decided to give up on the grindfest and did a couple of arena rounds, and got a new gear as a reward - a shield. Thanks to that, I'm back to my usual 6-8 round grindfest on normal mode, sometimes bit longer.

4x Godly Mana Draught 5x Mana Elixir 1x Soul Stone
I cut it a bit close, I had to use every item I took in with me. I really should have brought all elixirs but it worked out in the end.

I lost when I tried it around 120, but my ethereal weapon kind of sucks, so I'm just gonna wait till I get nerf to try again. Well I didn't lose I ran away after using 4 mana Elixirs and only getting him down to 70%.... although the change to healing might make that fight a bit better now then it was then.

It was a tough fight, I doubt I'll be trying IPU or FSM any time soon, I barely made that one.
Nerf should help though.

QUOTE(cmal @ Oct 16 2009, 22:02)  I start running out of MP about 3/4 of the way in from keeping Shield up and casting Regen/Cure once the mini-bosses start showing up. I pretty much use all of my items during that last round -- I stack Regen with Health Draughts, cast Cure II when my HP falls below a certain point and Cure otherwise, and Spark isn't cheap, either.
Try using a Scroll of the Avatar (Haste, Shield, & Barrier) to stack with Shield and Barrier when mini-bosses appear.

So I finally got 3 tokens of blood. That's right, I've only gotten 3 since I beat the unicorn, which was long enough ago that I can't remember when that was. So who wants to guess the FSM's HP total and what happened on the next turn when I used spirit? (IMG:[ i422.photobucket.com] http://i422.photobucket.com/albums/pp308/hitokiri84/FSM1.png)

Seeing as you still have silence proc'ed on it and only take 100 damage from its regular attacks, I'm assuming you didn't die tragically.
Which means your spirit probably overkilled it horribly. I'd guess it has around 1.8 mil total hp? What does sleeper imprint do anyways?

I wanted to experiment to see if my spirit would be changed to holy as well. It didn't, so the description is a little misleading. I have a suspicion that Gaia doesn't boost spirit either, unless someone has already tested it and can say otherwise.

1. That's taking 100+ damage with Weaken and 75% Dark mitigation. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Somehow I took 500+ damage from the first turn without Weaken, so I thought I was screwed right away. 2. You'd be wrong. And it was about 2.1 million, so a fairly good guess. 3. I have no idea other than doing extra damage. (IMG:[ i422.photobucket.com] http://i422.photobucket.com/albums/pp308/hitokiri84/FSM2.png) It took awhile longer, but it finally died.

I want to have a crack at Mikuru too, but I only have one Token left. I know I'll get another one soon enough, but it's annoying that I can't just fight her right away. And I'll need another two after that, because she'll probably kill me the first time...

Hope this info will help you against Mikuru. The one I was up against used piercing attacks, and my attacks were only doing 1 damages. However, I was able to kill it with high doses of Bleeding Wounds (17% for 5 turns, over 300+ damage/turn with 210% overcharge) which seems to work pretty well against 2nd tier legendary.
