I can't soulfuse my eth mace of slaughter yet but I can drop 14 burden once I do.

Meanwhile you can use Featherweight Shard on it to decrease that 14 Burden and Interference...

Hello

Which weapon is better?

Both not very good, but the bottom one is slightly better I think... You could better look for a exquisite or magnificent rapier or shortsword. Check FreeShop, and other shops / auctions.

Tip: copy the URL of the equip pop up and paste it in the forum instead of making a picture.

So, I noticed that I've been accumulating a lot of magnificent and some legendary weapons and armor, but I'll pretty much never use them.

I know that the special armors like Shade, Power, and Phase are sought after more than the regular armor, but can I actually get worthwhile credits by selling the regular armor or is it more viable to salvage them for the high-grade materials?

Same thing for the weapons. Is there a way I can reliably find out the 'worth' of a weapon or do I just post them and see if anyone is interested?

Should I take a look at the auctions and use their guidelines to distinguish which weapons and armor are more viable for selling?

Thank you.

To make it simple for you: salvage Mag+ shields, staffs and clothes, bazaar the rest.

You could ask in the price check thread. After some time you'll know by default, which stuff is worth something and which isn't.

Quick checklist for stuff that MIGHT be worth something:
Weapon: Prefixed and Slaughter or Balance Suffix
Heavy Armor: Prefixed Power Armor of Slaughter/Balance
Light Armor: Prefixed Shade Armor of the Shadowdancer/Fleet
Cloth Armor: Charged Cotton of NOT Curse-weaver or Earth-walker or Radiant Phase
Staff: Too complicated to make it quick

Please refrain from giving misleading advice like this. Your list is not entirely wrong, but it's not quite right either and can lead to wrong assumptions.

Sadly, things cannot ever be as simple as that, since there are a lot of parameters that make an equipment worthy or not. For example, a SDE Savage Power of Warding is better than a DE regular Power of Slaughter, at equal ADB% and level. Likewise, a 100% EDB on a plain phase is probably worth more than a Radiant Phase with 0% EDB.
Or Radiant Phase is worth more than Charged for Holy, while they're probably equivalent for other playstyles, if not Charged being outright more expensive.

If there is a price check thread, it's precisely because we can't make such a simple list in the first place, and the opinion of actual knowledgeable players is needed.

How do Abilities from armour apply?

Do you get them even if you aren't wearing that type of armour, just based on your proficiency and ability level?

For example, let's say that I wear Heavy Armour but I pick Light Crit at level 1 with 175 proficiency, plus slot it so that it activates.

Would I get 1.75% Crit Chance even if I'm not using Light Armour?

How do Abilities from armour apply?

By getting and slot the abilities. After that you only need to use a full armor set of that armor and you are golden.

Do you get them even if you aren't wearing that type of armour, just based on your proficiency and ability level?

You dont even get them if you have just a single empty armor slot. Have a full armor set of a single type, or you get absolutly nothing at all.

For example, let's say that I wear Heavy Armour but I pick Light Crit at level 1 with 175 proficiency, plus slot it so that it activates.

And in that case you wouldnt even get a single point in crit chance.

Can I get some help setting up a key binding in monsterbation?

What I want is:

When hovering over a monster (so I'm autoattacking it), I want to press G once and have it cast Imperil.

Currently my key binding is:
Bind(KEY_G, Any, Strongest([HoverAction(Cast('Imperil'), true), Cast('Imperil')]));\

However, whenever I tap the button, the skill always shows up as selected (aka it's showing up above the combat log), but it only actually casts maybe 30% of the time. It's like the hover action decides to attack normally instead of use the selected spell unless I time my key press to some random arbitrary sweet spot between attacks.

If I hold down the button, it eventually casts, but sometimes I double/triple cast it by accident that way.

I've tried multiple ways to write out the binding with and without HoverAction and toggled a bunch of other settings in Monsterbation, but I must be missing something simple.

ps. Dunno if this information would help, but if I move my mouse off the monster so the hovering auto-attack stops, press the button, then resume hovering, it casts 100% of the time.

edit: pps. I'm watching my MP, not the monster bar, so I know it's not getting resisted.

something for this application, as well as some others, is in the works and should be available in the next update

Shortsword, no question about it!

Awesome to hear that. Thanks for the response.

Hi. I wanted to ask for opinions regarding my main weapon. Currently, I'm using Magnificent Ethereal Axe of Slaughter. Since people are suggesting rapier as main weapon for 1H, I'm thinking of changing to one. But I don't really know if it's better to change my weapon or not. These are the list of useful rapiers (I think) that I have in my inventory:

Magnificent Hallowed Rapier of Slaughter (61)
Exquisite Ethereal Rapier of Slaughter (312)
Exquisite Rapier of Slaughter (250)
Superior Rapier of Slaughter (318)
Superior Rapier of Slaughter (313)
Superior Rapier of Slaughter (274)
Average Rapier of Slaughter (0)
Average Rapier of Slaughter (0)

Magnificent Ethereal Rapier of Balance (312)
Exquisite Tempestuous Rapier of Balance (180)
Exquisite Rapier of Balance (280)
Superior Rapier of Balance (238)
Average Rapier of Balance (0)

Magnificent Hallowed Rapier of the Nimble (281)
Exquisite Tempestuous Rapier of the Nimble (307)
Superior Rapier of the Nimble (319)
Superior Rapier of the Nimble (244)
Average Rapier of the Nimble (0)

Anything good to swap with the axe? If there's one, I'm planning to simple IW10 and soulfuse it. And what should I do with the rest? Auction, bazaar, sell, salvage, etc. them?

Magnificent Hallowed Rapier of Slaughter (61)

This is the one you should use.

If you decide to go for DW at any point you can use either the Mag ethereal of Balance or Hallowed of the Nimble as offhand, but if you're sticking with 1H, that one will last you quite a while.

The rest you can just bazaar.

This might be the best rapier you got, but the level's too low, so it actually impotent without soulbinding (and hollowforging before that). However, soulbinding will waste soul fragment as I'm sure you can buy a legendary one seeing your level. I advise you to sell this for a lot of credit.

Magnificent Ethereal Rapier of Balance (312)
You'll save the effort of hollowforging this one, as it's already has void strike. It's also an of Balance, so good offensive stat right there. Use this as until you find Legendary Rapier of Good Enough.

Magnificent Hallowed Rapier of Slaughter (61)

My guess is that this would be the best choice and provide the most similar experience to your current playing style... but I think it's possible that with an item of that quality at that level, you could sell it and make enough to buy something better at a higher level. My gut tells me Soulfusing something like that is a mistake.

Magnificent Ethereal Rapier of Balance (312)
Magnificent Hallowed Rapier of the Nimble (281)

These are both probably more suited to DWing.

Yep, yep, yep!
Definitely sell that one.
And get a cheap legendary xxx rapier of slaughter that's around your level.
I wouldn't waste fragments on soulbinding, as you can probably already start the switch over to mage.

I'm currently looking at the damage formula on the wiki (https://ehwiki.org/wiki/Physical_Damage) and I'm a little confused about the formula. Here is what's on the wiki:

Physical Damage = (base_weapon_damage + attack_damage_bonus + prof_bonus + stat_bonus) * (1 + hath_bonus) * (1 + crit_mod) * (1 + heartseeker_bonus) * (1 + spirit_stance_bonus))

crit_mod Bonus for critical hits +50% (boosted by Fatality potency and Savage prefixes)

For crit, shouldn't the term be (1 + crit_chance * crit_mod)? Or am I missing something?

I ask because I've been wondering about how to compare savage/shadowdancer gear in general and fatality/butcher potencies.

I've been wondering about how to compare savage/shadowdancer gear in general

You know that shadowdancer has higher crit chance and savage higher crit damage right? So i am not sure what you actually want to compare here. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
