@tenboro: maybe you want to put some conditions for player who want to enter grindfest, especially the minimum HP.

Look!! I'm dead before touched by anything. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Hey, if you want to wake up dead, who am I to stop you. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Firefox can't find the server at hv.e-hentai.org.

IE can. Also, the Battle layout is basically fixed on IE 7. However, the Main Character screen is still broken.

Firefox finally found it, after my hourly battle in IE 7.

I just noticed that Lightning costs me 6 MP, but Fireball and Icestrike each cost 5 MP. I have 5% Fire and 5% Wind ratings, and everything else is 0%. Apparently not all of the base elemental spells are equal.

Is Lightning more powerful than my other two elemental attacks? Perhaps it's more expensive simply because it's a higher-level skill? Does Wind also cost more?

As far as I know, the higher-tiered elemental spells have a slightly higher cost. As to what's more effective, it depends on what you're targeting with it. I imagine there could be differences in how they're coded, but Tenboro'd have to comment on that.

Sure, elemental weaknesses are a much bigger factor. I'm wondering if there's a difference with all else being equal. If I'm hitting a monster that has equal fire, ice, and electric resistances, I don't want to use 20% more MP if it isn't 20% more effective.

Elemental magic is a waste of MP, don't ever bother getting lighting, windblast, fireball, and icestrike are all I have and they take care of most of the stuff. When I hit a boss monster in the arena I blast it with my spirit. Works most of the time. In grindfest, I flee from boss monsters, it's not worth the waste of mp and hp fighting those things.

Yea, speaking about arena, I did some stupid and wasted 1000 credits by doing test of faith on hard difficulty, wasted 1000 credits there, I still made it to the final round somehow...

@roflcopt0rz, do you have the weaken ability maxed out? I never lose an hourly on hard nor do I use any items even against a rabid hamster, sperm whale, and peacock all at the same time. Weaken all those suckers and hack them to death. Then again... I do have 12 health tanks.

can u reduce the difficulty on the arena?? or like allow access to healer in between battles?

the arena becomes easier once you have healing/shielding/weaking spells + elixirs + lots of item slots

kinda mean to make the last challenges go up 2 rounds each tho (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) doubt i'll ever attempt any above fresh meat
plus you'll be saving elixirs forever just to be able to do it

don't think i've ever played a game that allowed you to heal in between rounds (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I also believe it will be easier once we get access to weapons/armor. Second Wind can be a big help inbetween rounds though. The only thing I would like to see is some sort of refund on items like a health drought that still had 5 turns left when you completed the battle.

I can't help but disagree. Both Hamsters and Whales are weak to lightning, which gives it more bang for your buck than any other elemental spells when considering those enemies. I've seen Hamsters go down with a single cast of lighting, where it would have taken two or three castings of other spells. I don't exactly call that a waste of MP. And since it only takes one AP to get them, it's worthwhile if you want to aim for a balanced elemental attack.

IMO if you're left at the end of a battle thinking "Damn, I should have used that health draught sooner", then you should probably have used that health draught sooner.

The only spells I have are fireball, icestrike and windblast. Fireball seems to work pretty damn well on the whales for me and windblast pwns the hamsters. Maybe it has to do with my proficiency which is at 22. Because the results I get from that, I didn't see the need to get lighting blast. Also mana conservation is key when you have limited item slots. I need to conserve my mana such that I can make it the later rounds during arena battles. In hourlies, I go all out and drain all my MP.
