Ah man, I just realized that the "Time" for training is the time it takes to train that. I'm not sure why that was not obvious to me. I thought it was a bonus/effect duration for some reason, so didn't bother with it.

I guess it is good I didn't get super deep before realizing that, but I wish I had been training as soon as I could. Wasted some hours there. Oh well.

On an unrelated note, is there any reason to not start with 2H and Heavy armor? That's what I've been using since I could afford some gear, and it has worked out pretty well so far, but it looks like a lot are using 1H and light at earlier levels. Is there some benefit to starting with light and changing to heavy later?

Also, assuming I continue with Heavy and 2H, is there some Attributes I should ignore or focus more on? I currently have the most in Strength and Endurance, high Dex and Agility, medium Wisdom, and low Intelligence.

It's all pretty manageable so far, but I'm only playing on Normal. I'm wondering if I'd need something more optimal if I change the difficulty level.

People will tend to choose whatever is most viable to survive on higher difficulties to level up as fast as possible.

In lower levels, let's say pre-200, 1H block isn't as good as it can be later on, lacking the abiity you unlock at lvl250, besides the natural lower stats from lower level gear, but it's definitely better compared to other fighting styles on higher difficulties.

You'll also be doing less counter-attacks for a while due to low proficiency, as explained in the wiki page linked below about fighting styles, but you'll eventually be able to get enough overcharge to keep up a permanent spirit stance, and thus keep 100% extra damage all the time.

I've played the Niten Style(Katana+Wakizashi) using Light Armor on the Isekai world for the first 200 levels on Hell before finally switching over to 1H, but I still felt some difficulty facing monsters on PFUDOR until I got the extra block passive at lvl250.

You can also look into doing the Item World for your main weapon, so you switch it's damage type to void, which monsters don't have any resistant to, otherwise get an Ethereal weapon or use a voidseeker shard, if you have some of those lying around, and you might find it easier to shave off monster HP.

In general, try following the advice from this page, besides giving a glance at other stuff available on the wiki, and you'll do well in the game.

No short sword, i have learned in Isekai how much they suck balls even for low level.

Shortswords suck precisely for low level. The better the imperil, the less the difference. Currently using one in isekai and it's surprisingly feasible. Imperil almost always landing because of huge proficiency is another plus for that gamestyle in isekai.

On the other hand, monsters at low level also have lower pmit (it's not static, it scales with level) - so the difference between non-imperil rapier and non-imperil shortsword is comparatively much smaller, and in some cases, shortsword outperforms rapier.

Imperil landing rate is highly unlikely to be affected by your natural prof factor unless you are supplementing it with curse-weaver equipment or at least a willow staff... however low level monsters also have lower resist and lower evade, so...

My lvl260 1-handed isekai character with broadly shitty (light armor) equipment feels way more powerful than my lvl440 persistent 1-hander with decent (power armor) gear. Is this just how level-scaling works and I'm finally noticing because I can compare, or is there some tweak in isekai, or is my main gear way worse than I thought?

Do spells slotted into the 'auto-cast' slots from the Hath perks benefit from character Abilities boosts, such as 'Better Haste', 'Better Shadow Veil' etc.?

I have 'better haste' maxed which should mean haste gives me +50% action speed right? But when I hover over the buff tooltip during a battle, it says 'The target has been hastened, increasing it's action speed by 25%' instead of by +50%.

In fact now that I check, it says +25% even for a manual cast? I thought I had it equipped by slotting into a green ability slot on my character page, so why does the tooltip say +25%?

Thanks in advance!

Question about Isekai

How many trophies do i have to shrine to get a Peerless Voucher?
Let's say i have thousands of ManBearPig Tail and shrine trophy upgrade to tier 5.

How do the bulk shrine multipliers work?
The shrine value is increased based on the 'target' tier you're upgrading to.

Upgrading to tier 3 multiplies trophy value by 1.1.
Upgrading to tier 4 multiplies trophy value by 1.2.
Upgrading to tier 5 multiplies trophy value by 1.3.

The 'trophy value' here is the total trophy value of the type you're using, not the trophy value of the target tier.

For example, upgrading 4 ManBearPig Tails into 1 tier 3 trophy roll means you'll get 4*1000*1.1=4400 shrine value. Note that these multipliers do not stack - if you upgrade 32 ManBearPig Tails to tier 5, you will only get the 1.3x multiplier.

The multipliers have been balanced to include the loss of value in junk equipment sales from upgrading; tier 5 upgrades should generally be optimal for shrine value. These are all significant buffs compared to 0.86 shrine values (except for Sapling & Black T-Shirt, which are narrowly better when upgraded to tier 5, but the other trophies more than make up for the difference).

This is both a quality-of-life change, and to lighten the load of junk equipments on the database.

Yes, abilities do help on the Innate Arcana slotted spells. Tooltips are known to have little errors. And I'm sure they aren't updated when you improve your abilities.

Especially against Schoolgirls, right? The last 3 arena's? Health of schoolgirls was halved on isekai

Is there any rule of thumb in soulfusing equipment? I've only soulfused my rapier but my other gears arent soulfused, from my equip below which one is worth to soulfuse? Most of them are 20~30 below my level

[alt.hentaiverse.org] shield
[alt.hentaiverse.org] armor
[alt.hentaiverse.org] gauntlet
[alt.hentaiverse.org] legging
[alt.hentaiverse.org] boots

thank you in advance!

Is there any rule of thumb in soulfusing equipment?

1) soulbind equipment above your level to be able to wear it
worth it if equip is (much) better than yours (also based on your soul fragments stock)
for example: change magnificent power armor for legndary power armor

2) soulbind equipment below your level to increase its stats
worth it if equip is (near) endgame or realy good or rare (also based on your soul fragments stock)
fow example: power armor of slaughter with ADB > 90%

sorry, but i don't think that yours equip worth it, especially if you have problems with soul fragments

Its certainly sub-par but then I doubt I can get end-game like equipment with near max adb like that (millions of credits needed). Since the game is dead for low level the equipment for scrubs like me is limited, I will stuck with some of these for quite a while, without scaling equipment wouldnt it hamper my daily grind then?

I doubt waiting "end-game" equipment to soulfuse is the optimal way, but then again I'm noobs.

Hi forneus, fellow low level/poor player (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

While the advice of the expert and experienced players is invaluable to us, I'd recommend you use this script:
Live Percentile Ranges

That is because this script allows you to compare gear at their default level and your current level with the press of a key. For example, look at my Leggings:



In this example I just scale the level 309 gear to my level 327 and compare the before and after stats, so I can decide for myself if the difference is significant enough to warrant a soulfuse.
Truth be told, even if it did justify a soulfuse I still wouldn't do it cause, again, poor and whatnot. Eventually you get either acceptable drops or lucky finds on the bazaar to replace old ones, but that's just my opinion.
Bottom line, the only non-end-game gear I'd soulfuse (for IW purposes) are weapons, to get void/element strikes, which is a lot of extra damage. The potencies also help if you get the right ones. The armor potencies just feel underwhelming to me (opinions about this are welcome) but that might just be because of my setup/playstyle (Nited/Shade) and choice of battles. Right now I only do REs + 3 last Arenas on PFUDOR, GFest is not even on my radar.

PS: How to post images directly as "icons" that need to be pressed to be enlarged? I kinda dislike how huge they look if directly linked like I did (I don't have any much forum experience tbh (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)).

ok, you can scale down limit from endgame to pre-pre-endgame
anyway, it's not any of magnificents or non-Slaughter legendaries

just buy some Legendary of Slaughter with any ADB and with level below your+100 and bind it to use right now

upd, ok some thoughts:
[alt.hentaiverse.org] shield - not soulfuse it, kite shieldes don't work, try to find force shiled, even magnificent will be better
[alt.hentaiverse.org] armor - looks like worth soulfuse if you can't get any better like you said
[alt.hentaiverse.org] gauntlet - not soulfuse. don't worth it
[alt.hentaiverse.org] legging - level gap is highest, if you want waste your soul fragments do it here
[alt.hentaiverse.org] boots - not soulfuse, it's near you level, better try to find replacement

my advice: you can soulfuse legendaries and focus on replacing shield and mags

You have to add them as attachments rather than linking an external image. I edited your post to do that for you (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Ah good to know Nezu, thanks.

For Isekai mode, and Persistent to a lesser extent, is it better to have a higher-tier equipment piece even though it's not any of the special armors?

For example, I have an Exquisite Plate armor and a Superior Power armor of the same body part. Is it better to use the Exquisite or the Superior?

That depends on what you want/need. plate has usually higher mitigations as power armor, with a higher tier that difference is even bigger. While power armor of course does give you additional damage, something plate doesnt. But it may also be a good idea to check which and how many primary attributes the armor has. End gives additional PM and MM. Dex gives you additional parry. And a plate can also be a shielding plate giving you additional block. But overall that additional block isnt enough to cover for the lose of damage you have for not using a power armor of course and when you think that your defense is fine allready the way it is it may actually be better to use power armor to get additional damage. But in general i would actually say exq plate should be replaced by at least exq power armor. The chance for more atribute and a prefix is just much higher. And before you have a lot of forging some elemental prefix can allready make a difference for your defenses. Or later on when you want to do IW or Fest.

Hi, for difficulty setting does it affect boss drop? mithra flower etc? from the wiki in hard difficulty it only says "Lower drop chance for artifacts and tokens when doing Grindfest and Item World" not arena, so if I only want to get drop from boss like schoolgirls etc it doesnt matter right?

Hi, for difficulty setting does it affect boss drop?

no, boss always drop trophy no matter what
one exception: schoolgirls in last 3 arenas, their drop chance is limited but doesn't depend on the difficulty

no, boss always drop trophy no matter what
one exception: schoolgirls in last 3 arenas, their drop chance is limited but doesn't depend on the difficulty

Thanks for the info!
