How long do status ailments from magic attack spells last? Is it the same 3 turns from Spike Shields, or does the duration get multiplied by up to 4x with proficiency like deprecating spells? What about Burning Soul and Ripened Soul from holy/dark mages? I know Vital Theft from Drain increases in duration with level and proficiency, but what about Ether Theft and Spirit Theft?

I have a Peerless Charged Cotton Pants of the Elementalist. Best drop I have ever receive.

Someone is buying that for 40 million but I would like to know if it would be good idea to send it to auction with a 42 million for a start. Just wondering. I could do it anyway but, just wanted to know if there's a demand that justifies over 40 million for a start or just 1 user. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I know have asked this plenty of time, but... which is the stat priority for 1H style?

From the wiki I have seen that the formulas are based on STR + DEX and STR + END, so I guess that STR have priority then DEX and END and then everything else (after considering mana, hp and support necessity). Is it correct?

I decided to start doing some IW to maximize all my gear even if it's totally mediocre.
Which are the best potencies for power armor and power shields?

Thanks

Wiki recommends Str = Dex = End. Agi and Wis only slightly lower. Int very low. I mostly agree with this.

Shield and Armor potencies are useful but at your level it's not so important which ones to get. Any of them will be fine. At higher level people want to get Juggernaut, but I think even that can be debated.

Pants are not the best slot. That means that I can't see that item reaching 100m+. But mabye I'm wrong. What I would do, is sent to auction, with start 40m. Not 42, that's just being mean and greedy. Because, if that dude is the only one interested, why annoy him for a lousy 2m extra? Not a nice thing to do, and that could even scare him/her away.

DEX is great. It improves parry. STR+DEX are your friends. I don't believe that END is so important in the end, because you have enough health with jug5 on every item. Not that it's bad, but I would have STR=DEX > END. INT can be zero. Because that's cool to have a zero. WIS is kinda useful, just like AGI. But far less than STR and DEX.

Pants is the best slot for non-imperil. I do think it is worth sending to auction, not selling directly.

Well I will be sending to auction. I guess I should put 40 in case there's no demand but I am hopeful given it's the best slot for non-imperil. And the 40 is justified given how someone is already interested. Thanks. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I think there will be more than one person interested. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

We have an interesting auction coming up! Going for 1.0 prof factor with pants alone? Could work, could work nicely.

Hello, the wiki says more SP through strength stat does not improve Spirit Shield, but the formula only consists of Base SP. Does that mean I can improve Spirit Shield by increasing SP with SP Tank ability?

Doesn't seem that way.

Spirit Damage = Base_SP * SS_AP_Damage * MIN( (Damage - Max_HP * SS_AP_Damage) / (Max_HP * SS_AP_Damage * 3) , 1)

(SS_AP_Damage = percentage of damage required for Spirit shield to kick in)

Note: This formula works in such way that an increase of spirit points (e.g. by increasing STR primary attribute) leads to the spirit damage increasing with the same percentage. More SP does not improve Spirit Shield.

As far as I know, the * Tank abilities increase Max, not Base, which is slightly different. The costs of SS will still be the same either way, but it'll be a comparatively smaller % of your total. (Not that this matters a huge amount besides when you use elixirs).

I'm thinking about acquiring the orbital cannon. How useful is it at my level? I'm currently playing on PFUDOR at level 350.

for 1h it's one round free pass (terms and condition apply) every ~2-3 round. useful even on higher level than you.
useless for mage.

Alright, I'll try to get one. Thanks..

Actually SP Tank does improve Spirit Shield by giving you a wider amount of SP reserves to work with, like lestion said. What does not improve Spirit Shield is improving your base SP; for example by raising your Intelligence.

The Spirit Shield formula is complex and I analyzed it a couple times in recent years. The best ways to make Spirit Shield work better and be more spirit efficient are: 1) get Juggernaut - this is arguably the main thing Juggernaut is good for, it doesn't do nearly as much in terms of protecting your HP as people think due to the way it works. 2) just raise your level, because the higher level you are, the more efficient Spirit Shield gets, and it's kind of a linear or squared relationship.

A lot of 1H players start relying on Spirit Shield too early in my opinion. It really sucks on low level players, and I would only use it in IW, Grindfests, or emergencies. I don't think most players should start relying on Spirit Shield for basic everyday protection (instead of Haste, for example) until past level 400 or more.

Weirdly enough, HP Tank will improve your Spirit Shield's spirit efficiency while SP Tank doesn't (it just gives you more reserves to work with). I assume though that most players would train their HP Tank to max. Raising Endurance would also give you more HP and improve your Spirit Shield's SP efficiency. Raising Agility will also help indirectly by improving your defenses in general.

Hey so I been just doing the 200, 400, and 600 battle Arena, and I want to know how to increase my damage, output if I dont want to be a casual, how do I get better weapon,

I was really thinking for while, before i did understand what you did mean with 200, 400 and 600. Personally i would suggest to use the rounds number, because otherwhise it could be confusing which 1000 arena you actually mean. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Also you increase your damage ouput by using a weapon of slaughter, get a better weapon, level up, forge your equipment, use a full power armor set instead of plate, IW your weapon and so on. But at your level most of this doesnt even matter atm. I mean sure you could forge the first five damage upgrades on your weapon, but i sixth wouldnt be smart. A The binding of slaughter you would need for this, is worth multiple of the best weapon you will most likely drop and use and the near future. And a full power armor set has lower mitigations as a plate set and btw just in case you use leather the same is true for shade and leather, so changing to that could make it in later arenas a bit harder to survive on harder difficulties. So no hurry with that. But you should nevertheless make sure that you change your equipment when it falls to far behind in level, soulfusing the equipment you will encounter now is mostly just not worth it. But dont worry, that will change latter on pretty quick. Does this answer your question? Or do you have follow questions?

there's almost nothing casual past mid-level (250+), everything you did here are masochism to a degree.
the biggest damage is playing mage, but that would meant an extra whipping, literally on your character, and figuratively on yourself.
