I have several questions (again), sorry too many questions
1. does deprecating proficiency have any effect on imperil success rate?
2. is using infusion as battle item affects elemental strike? (sword enchanted with fire strike gains bonus from battle item infusion of fire?)
3. is there any benefit for going <40 burden on 1h+heavy armor set? I just keep it below <70 so I dont get crit penalty
thanks for the help in advance!

1) yes, proficiency factor increases counter-resist with spells of that class 2) not as far as I know, should only affect spell sources 3) minor survivability in fest/IW, if you care about that

So with how Isekai works, the best build for that game mode would be max survivability? What would that be? Rapier of the nimble, Protection/Warding power armor, and stat builds that prioritize AGL and END?

Question: Are the first page arenas worth doing on Isekai?
I pretty much only do all arenas on persistent for the token chance in the last round, but the first page arenas don't have 100% drop chance iirc.
Is there any reason for doing first page arenas in Isekai other than the chance for Blood Tokens?
XPwise, I think entering a grindfest will do better due to the higher monster/round ratio in later rounds, besides having a chance to get upgrade mats.
Thanks.

Since there is no more double stamina regen bonus, and no way to replenish stamina, you should prioritize your stamina spending wisely. I'd agree that the first-page arenas aren't that good if you consider their value per stamina spent. Oh, and none of the arenas has a 100% token chance. I've even completed DwD a few times without getting a token at the last round.

It is not ideal.

For Isekai, I noticed that the settings also has the shrine upgrade system. Does it also apply for shrining things on Isekai? Or should I shrine my trophies the moment I get them?

you'll get a peerless after shrining 10m worth of trophies on isekai so choose tier 5 even if it takes some time to get the trophies This post has been edited by lololo16: Jan 23 2021, 04:46

For unassigned weapons and armor that do not have any levels, does something happen to their stats when you equip them and assign them your current level?

I guess Innate Arcana II or III is a must if you want to play this game seriously right? Its rather tiring to recast protection+regen+heartseeker lol

regen and heartseeker can NOT be put into Innate Arcana. As melee, you don't need that much IA. Just 1. Spark of life, 2. Protection, 3. Spirit Shield. That's it.

Unassigned level gear shows you the stats it would have at your level.

Isekai questions:
Is the tower the only way to get Soul Fragments as drops?
Do you get soul fragments even if you fail to complete a floor?
Is there any point in entering the tower if you know you won't be able to finish a floor?
Now that the update rush has faded a bit for me, the Tower really feels like a waste of stamina, same as Grindfest with the stamina entry cost. :/

Yes, the only way. No, not for failing a floor. Only for the EXP and drops. But Arena's are better for both of those. Aye. Waste of Stamina, but most of all TIME!

Shrining my 12 stuffers on persistent: I suppose staff is the best slot for possibility to sell? I know that staff would be the most useful for me personally but the chance of getting something good is already too low, so I may as well just go for the average income.

Nobody can tell you the answer to that question, because it's pretty extreme gambling. The chances of getting a usable staff are a little higher than getting usable cloth. The sell prices of non-HOH staffs are pretty low compared to certain cloth piees. You will not likely get any good legendaries out of 12 anyway (maybe if you had 1200). You could consider it from the magnificent angle (ie, cloth is better return because HGC > HGW). I would personally do cloth.

Genuine, genuine question - Everyone always recs Spark of Life a your first IA for melee. You only need your two shields up after that. But at a certain point... I genuinely have never had Spark proc a single time. I've fallen asleep playing DwD (Honest to god, who hasn't) and accidentally fucked my way through a round or two without regen and still haven't died. Game will always pause if you have scripts anyways. Does anyone with that much goddamn armor ever need Spark of Life? Maybe I've intentionally cast it once, fighting the FSM just in case. If you're poor and only have one to two IA, I find the longevity of the protections much more important. IDK. Maybe people are playing the game differently? Again, all on PFUDOR, full Power armor, been playing like that since level 300ish.
I can see spark as important for other playstyles and low levels but I feel like you get that survivability with 1h melee. Not speed though, thats for sure. If I knew and had the money I'd switch to mage so I wouldn't have the schoolgirls fuck my truly valuable time in the ass in DWD

Arenas are fairly easy, so spark of life for melee players in general is mostly an 'oh shit' protection in case you really fuck up, or get unlucky with multiple SP attack crits from 2250s and such. But for pfest, it's practically a necessity (except for Uncle Stu, apparently). Your mileage may vary at low levels depending on your playstyle, equipment you're using, luck etc.
