[X] My Assistant

Ok, here i am. Sorry for the wait. Need to work as well here (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)


This is how i start today:


This is PF all the arenas from 25 to 100 (for the total of 820 rounds) with normal wind mage (no aether shards used).


And this is one PF Item World run of 82 rounds with 1h/mage.



Random results of course, for just today, but it's gives the idea. I can not handle PF (or IWBTH) Item World runs with normal mage i fear, so we have to do with this.
Anyway... I see Sapo already explained the whys.

As much as i don't like generally the 1h/mage, i do still consider it the best way to go for proficiency training.

But then again, like the mayor in tales of the abyss said: "old men are impatient, cause they don't have that much time left" (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)
I'm an old man (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Depends on how deep that patience goes.
Am I going to stick with something that makes me flee REs in normal? No way.
Especially since I have an expensive melee set that I don't even use draughts or mana for a "PF" RE.
I just plow them down, and my HP regenerates as I check the monster page.

This mage thing came about due to you guys talking about clearing a Hellfest in 4000 turns.
I have the patience to try and achieve that. The goal is there.

You sure? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
I find it kinda strange...
Even with in DW i have to heal frequently in any PF-IW run, while with from 1h/mage i rarely ever heal.

But then again swapping styles is always tedious.

As for mage...
For someone like me that occasionally has to deal with heavy lagging (i thank the neighbors), mage is a big deal. If it wasn't for that i would probably remain 1h/heavy - nyten/heavy for ever (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
But maging is tricky!!! You need great equip. Perfect IW results on every piece. Constant use of scrolls. Aether and featherweights on every clear. Great attention on your clears. Big programming on your set, luck and wealth to find them and then you also need to spend a fortune to forge them.
Mage is very rewarding, but it's not simple at all! Playing it is actually a major pain the... there (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

With my horrendous dark mage


That was born cause i dropped this piece, i can not even reach round 500 on a hellfest.
That's because dark/holy mage are tedious styles, that need great attention to your equipment. You can't just drop a set together and play dark mage.
So any PF mage is seriously something that you need a great preparation in order to play.
(But then again it allows me to clear DwD at hell difficulty in 12 minutes. Worth (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) )

I completely agree, but since Road Shoe is not credit starved I was suggesting he build his set first and only then start raising prof.

You know what they say about small insignificant details... Well this is a HUGE and SIGNIFICANT detail that i actually missed!!!
And how on earth did i? I know his condition!
Aieeeeeeee... i'm getting worse by the day... Not cool epion. Not cool (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Might not be too much of a problem for red (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Unlike me who still needs to pay his debt for 9 more weeks at most (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif) Would be nice to get better ping to do more arena runs ( '-')

yup , that isn't much problem for him (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I spend more than 100M to make my mage change swiftly (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif)

well , I'm converting myself from 1H to dark mage in 1 week , red (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

Send me crystals and I'll shorten that week into just 7 days. Trust me. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

The trick to fast runs as mage, aside from buying+forging strong gears and unlocking T3 spells obviously, is using a script for mages like Crackling Cast, Imperil and a high enough ele prof to not get your spells resisted (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) The usual strategy is to kill enemies fast before they have a chance to fight so the standard round goes like: cast Imperil 2 or 3 times to cover all targets then hover over enemies (for CC you can set which spells to use on hover)

If you want, you can skip casting protection/haste/shadow veil and just buy as many scrolls for those as you want for the double effect compared to casting em.

Just get crackling cast 'w')b We'll teach you how to set up the spells and whatnot when you ask

gianfrix94 hooked me up in the expert thread today. Yay! Spells are working great.
I still have the hiccup where it CC/reloader doesn't activate on REs, but that's happened forever.

The great thing with melee, there isn't really much of a learning curve.
Very linear... get tanky, get strong... hover.

Mage... wow... this is one heck of a curve.
I can tell with just what you guys are saying here... it's going to take months.

I spend more than 100M to make my mage change swiftly (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif)

For 50credits, I won't quote this in the Po thread.
I'll take that in small non-sequential credits, wrapped in 140 slaughter bindings.
You have 3 days. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool2.gif)

I still have the hiccup where it CC/reloader doesn't activate on REs, but that's happened forever.

Hansvar set up CC to only work when the link is hentaiverse.org/?Battle to avoid problems while in the main HV page. Make sure thats the link you get while fighting. I've had that problem before when I tried to activate CC during a fight and just typed hentaiverse.org on a new window (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

Send me crystals and I'll shorten that week into just 7 days. Trust me. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

nah , kinda lost motivation to grinding lately , red (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)


Just edit your CC @match into *.hentaiverse.org/* , red (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

But you can't use number to enter your pass in HV login page (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)
~ you can always copas it somewhere else ~ (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Snap just a usual newb's thingy before I go to... celebrate something I don't keen on celebrating:
(IMG:[i.imgur.com] http://i.imgur.com/LH9mhL8.jpg)
Transition of Heavies need many many prof...

A week or so into trying to come up with something for Mage.
Finally decided on Holy after some fiddling with electric.

Very mixed equipment. Gonna take some time.

Actually plays surprisingly well. Playing on hard, this off-balanced crap gear goes pretty quickly.

HatH: None to speak of.
GP: None to speak of.

Sent you 2 pieces you may use for the time being. Just return them once you can fill those slots with your own gear.

Wow! I just saw them.
Nice pieces. Thank you!

I'll return as soon as I'm straightened out. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Nothing special, and a lot of garbage equipment I can't upgrade until I level up some more and can soulfuse some of the level 400-500 equipment that are in my inventory.

Enough to do hourlies and first cpl arena's easily enough I guess, I don't play that "hardcore".

You're playing PF, so it must rock pretty well. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Maybe? I don't really do hell grindfests, item worlds, anything but the 1st 2 arena's, just the hourlies really, heh.

About the only good part of 2handed maces still is the mass stuns so you're never in to much danger.

Do you play any other personas?

This mage thing... wow. I have my DW set built to the point I never come close to dying.
But Mage? Let me forget one time not to switch out of PF from a DW run, and I'm dead in one hit on mage.

Difficult.. but it'll get there. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I don't have the fully forged gear like RodShoe or anything.





If you think I can improve something, I'm open to suggestions.

You need a better and prefixed Rapier.
The rest is ok.

EDIT: Lower INT too

Simplest improvements I can think of is balancing the stats better.
You can reduce Agility and Wisdom, I'd say at least 10 levels each.
Intelligent is near useless and you can bring it down to 200 or 150 or 100 or even 0, it doesn't change much (I would live it at something like 200 for the added spirit points).

The other important improvements would be to IW your rapier to 10 (or even find a better one and IW that).
You really want fully IW weapon to get void damage and void strike.

If we look only at usefulness, it's 0.

But even at 0 you will have spare EXP that can't be put on any other stat, and sooner or later it will be so small compared to the smallest PAB, that even 300 points on INT don't change anything.
I just realized that the other day (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

So probably the right amount to invest on INT is around 50~99% of the exp needed to raise the lowest stat (AGI) by 1.

For example, with 200M needed to raise AGI by 1, you put around 100M exp in INT (the whole exp from 0 to X of course, not for the single last point)

Hmm, this looks interesting (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

Lower STR and DEX, up INT and END

I have a better rapier, I just don't have 720 soul fragments yet. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)
