[X] My Assistant

I've been getting back into the game and I've been having some doubts about the conclusions I'm reaching, especially when I read the wiki.

1. What's up with this dagger? I think it's technically a wakizashi, but I can't find any information on what a dagger is. I may have found it years ago, so it may be outdated content?

2. I've been going dual wielding + cloth armor since without burden, I can keep up regen for longer periods of time. Yet, the guides tell me to go leather (I assume for the physical mitigation). Should I eventually try to aim for shade armor since I like this style? When I experiment with other playstyles, my MP seems to drain really quickly, so I might be doing it wrong.

3. My current goal I'm saving for is saving up for innate arcana III, so I can autocast shadow veil and get even more evade. Should I consider spending my credits or hath in any other areas?

edit: 4. Should I try to complete an easter set even though I'm low level?

1. Yes, it's obsolete
2. Yes, use shade if you want to use DW, 2H or niten ichiryu. Power armor for 1H/shield. Cloth is for mages and you won't get the stats you want from it.
3. IA3 is very useful if you are interested in not manually casting buffs, but it's not a huge performance increase outside of not having to do it yourself. Bigger changes could be much more expensive (like DD1, the 10% damage increase, or stuff like that).
4. Sure, if you've got the stamina, but if you're playing on lower difficulties it might be painful and slow to wait for drops. You'll be missing out on a few trophies and collectors value and that's pretty much it - it won't kill you

I only really actively started playing December 2018 and more regularly this year so no. My obsoletes anyway are from bazaar or I've already resold them there or slavaged cause I didn't know how to play the game (was getting credits for galleries and such)

Thanks for the help. I think I'll be selling my "high level" superior grades into the bazaar or salvage them which will cut down the inventory quite a bit, I know the FreeShop emphasizes that lower level assigned weapons hold some value so I'll look into that as well.

For what it's worth you're still low enough level that your drops can be worth keeping for new players (but yes, see those auction details for which ones specifically)

Quick question, reforge this or not? (but4fat4op1)

Not an end game rapier but probably gonna use it for a while

I think but5 is a must? or is it not worth it on this rapier?
Edit:
NVM, just gonna use it as it is, not peerless after all.
But I still want to get some opinions though.

The performance increase will probably be barely noticeable for you, decide for yourself if it's worth the credits to reforge. I wouldn't personally, but at least reforging a non-eth weapon doesn't have the awful RNG on what elemental strike you get at 10 (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Buy what you haven't had from other player. If you shrine all the series, you'll get a good trophy by the end of the event. It worth quite a bit. Trophy buyers usually buy them for a good price.

What's the meta these days?

I've got 7mil credits to blow on gear.

Well, at your level most people play 1H. Some play DW, and a few allready mage, but with 7M you dont get a decend mage set, so you have to choose between 1H and DW. 1H is more say while DW is a bit faster, but of course still slower as mage. And your stats are good for nothing, so before i can say something about them, tell me, what you want to play.

Mage. How much does a good setup cost nowadays?

Hm, not sure i am no mage, but i would assume something around 35M and above. 1H and DW are much cheaper, so when you just have 7M, i really suggest play one of them and go mage later on.

Okay. What kind of gear should I be using for 1h? Weapons and armor wise

Well, if he went fire or cold, you can get some really really reasonably priced gear, even charged, for not that much. If you commit to forging slowly from there, you could easily handle all arenas. I kinda regret choosing wind, apparently it became super meta and competitively priced...or there are just a lot of us in it. I've seriously considered moving to a different element.

I'm not really sure what you mean by charged. Been a long time since I've played HV.

Btw is 2h still a thing?

I have this legendary estoc from way back when https://hentaiverse.org/equip/9261882/c6f2b4220b

Okay. What kind of gear should I be using for 1h? Weapons and armor wise

Well, i would suggest a Rapier of Slaughter, a force shield and a armor a mix of three power armor of protection and two of warding, Or you take a look at prices for fire and cold mage sets, like i said i am no mage, so all i could was assume a price. But i would still say a decend 1H set is overall cheaper and easier to obtain.

Okay. Thanks Uncle Stu.

Charged phase armor. Like this one.

It is, not that many do actually play it and imo it needs heavy forging.

Okay. Thanks Uncle Stu.

You are welcome. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

Is it worth to change my title to Dovakin from godslayer to use Fus ro dah?

or just buy figurines and use OFC? I think not many people using Dovakin title though...

Fus ro dah is only useful if you design a build around it - where you stun all monsters and then kill them with massive melee damage. For regular builds, no always go for godslayer.

does higher difficulty means higher drop chance of artifacts and collectables?

or just all same chance even in normal~pfudor arena but GF and IW has lower drop chance upto hell difficulty?

You can find that information here and here.

so higher arena cleared means higher chance of getting artifacts right?

No.

so higher arena cleared means higher chance of getting artifacts right?

Only because you'll be facing higher PL mobs, as they give bonus to base drop chance. Otherwise,

all same chance even in normal~pfudor arena but GF and IW has lower drop chance upto hell difficulty?

This is correct.
