[X] My Assistant

Hey, I'd like to ask if playing 1H + Shield and Leather armor is viable levels 170+ or will I struggle later on and I will have to find heavy gear.

Well, you can of course play 1H light and some do it even on purpose, but imo it is a really suboptimal way of playing 1H. So yeah, i would suggest to switch to heavy.

On that note, would you also recommend forging Shade and Power gear to at least lv5 since those require an additional Shade Fragment or Repurposed Actuator respectively?

Shade, perhaps, given the rare material is quite cheap. Power, definitely not.
A 1H player can definitely go for either unforged Mag Power gear, or forge 5 Mag/Leg Leather/Plate.
The later provides a ton more defensive stats.

Thanx you for all advice for armor !!!!

Last question , where is there sometime i have 0 skill used no mana regen , and i loose a ton of mana , and when i equip mana regen i still loose mana

? is there a enemy that ave this kind of debuff ?

The only ways to lose mana is to either use spells, or have Innate Arcana slotted.

Ok i have no innate arcana slotted , and i had no spell used, but when i was overscrolling using the script : Monsterbation . I was loosing mana and on the log is was seaying Replenishment restores 7 points of magic.

If i was onlyu clicking i was not loosing mana , that why i am confuse

Thank you for the help and quick response.

1h-light is a fair choice for mid-low level, particularly before spirit shield become reliable around mid 200.
moreover if you have sub-par block rate from terrible shield.

but it's also true that on mid-high level the extra defense gradually become excessive that you better trade them for more attack instead. though staying 1h-light is also a choice, it's not harder to play, it's just slower.

Can any LV500 Niten player tell me your Experience Points share.
Thx much.

Do you think it is worth to use spirit shield when the treshold is 40%?
Or it is a waste of an auto cast slot.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Is it the only slot? Because when you play something like 1H light, personally i would use that one for haste.

as uncle stu said.
It's depends on how many slot you have, if you already have 5 then there's no problem putting it there.
But if you only have one then it's better to use it for another spell, making sure SoL always active for example.
I never experience only having one as I bought the first 3 at the same time, but I was using those for Protection, spirit shield, and SoL back then.
I keep all 5 of them active, and the reason I didn't put haste and shadow veil solely because they have higher MP cost than protection and spirit shield, and higher MP cost = higher chance for channeling for free heartseeker.

I have only 2 slots with Protection and Haste in them. When I'll buy the third slot I'll use spirit shield I guess.

(IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) I want to accumulate more credits per day, should I buy the Hath Perk level 2 Crystarium, or should I spend more and buy the first level of Tokenizer? which of those 2 would generate more credits in the long term.

Tokenizer if you don't have a full monster lab (and it's probably still going to take you a long time to unlock every slot).

Crystarium is worth it if you do a LOT of grindfests, but bear in mind the payoff is still pretty bad...

And you have to sell the crystals for it to be worth it. If you use them yourself, you will get almost 0 value out of it til you're earning enough to push things up to 1500+ regularly.

Tokenizer I & II are good ones. III only for heavy grinders.
Crystariums are less favored these days. Materials worth more these day but a crystal pack only sells for 19k on WTB. If you play gf on a regular basis, crystal 5 is a good long-term investment. Otherwise no

I have exactly 3 tokes to fight the Invisible Pink Unicorn in the RoB again but I was wrecked halfway though the last time despite having both regen and a maxed-out protection on. I went from about 90% health to death with one critical. What's the strategy here on normal for a strength build? Who do I kill first and so on?
I use heavy armor and a 2 handed weapon and will put my best equipment on for the fight. The other changes were pushovers but not this one and I can use the reward money.

Strenght build? You mean 2H heavy as mentioned later? Because i have no idea what strenght build is suppose to mean.

Who do I kill first and so on?

Doesnt matter, but when you get killed so easy, it only did mean that you fight them on a difficulty you are not strong enough for. So when you actually want to do the Invisible Pink Unicorn RoB again, just do it on a lower difficulty you are able to handle and you will be fine. There is really no point in doing any RoB on a difficulty you are not ready for. The worst case you will get nothing and loose the tokens, and the best case, you get a tiny completly unimportant amount of XP more. And maybe instead of a bazaar fooder exquisite item instead of a superior one. Btw, The unicorn isnt really the best RoB to do more often unless you really have enough token to do them all anyway. I would suggest to do the FSM for money when you sell the noodly, or Konata to try to trade blood token for chaos token.

Is there are single reson not to use your best gear? Also about thwat changes are you talking about? The unicorn? I really have no idea what you mean there. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Btw, 2H heavy isnt really the best style one could play, actually i cant even think of a one that would be worse when you play on higher difficulty when monster actually start to hit like trucks. Low parry, low attack speed, no block unless you actually use a shielding plate, low evade. And because i have my doubts that you did forge or IW your equipment you dont even have the damage to compensate for all those disadvantages even one bit.

I first killed the minion and was killed on turn 373 with only one of two hits at most left to kill the unicorn despite having at least 95% of my health left with spirit challenging, protection, haste and other stuff on. I clicked for what I thought was the last time and got killed. WTF?

My spark of life just ran out but there was basically no visible health on the monster left and the slow fight was going just fine with me never dipping below 60% of my max health even if a critical hit me. How is this a level 150 fight?
I have zero interest in doing this broken bullshit again but I need the gold. What´s the best way to farm Blood Tokens?

It's just a personal playstyle designed to max out the prof gains without slowing myself down much, but...
1) Wrath of Thor, 2) 3xImperil, 3) Paradise Lost, 4) 0-1 recasts of Imperil, 5) Murder everything

I've been doing some testing and experimentation lately. Would replacing Wrath of Thor with Focus be useful?

Although it would be bad for other reasons, if you have Haste you can cast 3x Imperil and 1x Paradise Lost for free off of just 1 Focus. This would also eliminate the need for Aether Shards.

You would also constantly be regenerating mana due to all the Focusing. Gathering overcharge could become a problem.

Turn 373? 373? Like in nearly 400? Yeah, no, fight them at a lower difficulty.

Level 150 fight? No, no you need to have at least level 150 to unlock it. And overall your level doesnt say anything about how strong you are. Someone at level 300 with a fully forged peer set would be much stronger as someone at level 500 with the same equipment but not forging and just the Mag versions.

It isnt broken, you did just play on a too high difficulty, also because you didnt mention it i am sure you also didnt silence or weaken the unicorn, right? And i allready told you.
