QUOTE(diodo @ Feb 20 2021, 15:41)  from ehwiki said that effective magic proficiency is capped at twice a player's level.
just notice my divine is 1005 right now, shouldn't it be capped at 1000 ?
It can go above double level, e.g. above 1000, but the rest is uselsee.

QUOTE(Arkoniusx @ Feb 20 2021, 02:57)  Speaking of which, Nezu, would I be better off reaching archaeologist level 10 before this year's Easter Event begins? Would it be easier for me to obtain the corresponding trophies being at the highest level? At the moment I listened to you and I have already reached level 50 of Scavenger. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif) Last year they weren't affected by Archaeologist, only difficulty, so no, wouldn't really make any difference. (Also, they're not trophies, and while they share function with artifacts, they're a separate drop roll, so a separate type altogether.)

Between Electric and Wind, which is better for P-Fest, and why are they both better than Fire? Not counting costs involved. May as well throw in Dark in here too.
Thanks!

From my Mates: Wind better. Because of Willow, Elec and Wind Willow has higher EDB than Fire and Ice Willow. For the last three Arenas I think Dark should be the best.

Wind and Elec better than Fire because first option staff for Elec/Wind is Shock/Temp Willow of Destruction which has Counter-Resist stat (as Willow), first option for Fire is Feiry Redwood of Destruction don't have CR and second option Fiery Willow of Destruction has less Fire EDB counter-resist important for imperil-style mage in P-Fest because you put imperil more efficiently Wind is better than Elec because wind attack spells debuffs mobs accuracy so if you don't one-shot some monsters with T3 spell you at least reduce their chance of hitting you btw i think that charged wind mage with full-forged evade is best build in the game, glass cannon that no one can hit only problem is the price

A few questions.
Should I soulbind a superior etheral rapier of slaughter if I'm playing on Nintendo? It's the first weapon I've gotten with a prefix. Playing 1H/Light.
What's the best way to get low grade materials and soul crystals?
And is there any real downside to dumping Intelligence if I'm only casting support spells? I'm only missing out on spell damage, right? Since interference is making me have zero spell crit anyways.
Thanks in advance.

Don't soulfuse it, you'll be getting better ones, wait until you get at least a magnificent one (or a very good exquisite). I'll assume you're playing on persistent, to get low-grade materials use your chaos tokens to create monsters in the lab, they'll bring materials for the forge every three days. Other source would be salvaging superior quality weapons or heavy armor. Probably your best bet would be buying them from the HVMarket, low-grade materials cost less than 10c each. Keep in mind you'll be changing your equipment quite fast, so don't forge anything until you get something that wouldn't be changed soon (although you'll get back 90% of the materials spent, except catalysts, if you salvage a forged equipment). For soul crystals, I think you mean soul fragments, you get them by clearing random encounters, don't buy them from the shop, just keep grinding RE. The only use for INT in a melee build is to increase spirit points, no other use at all. Many people even leave them at 0. I'd advise to not invest anything in INT and use spirit draughts to keep your SP, they cost like 15c in the HVMarket. Be sure to check the WTS section, there are many players giving free stuff to new players. Edit: Forgot the HVMarket and and advice about WTS section.

You are Victorious! Stop kicking the dead horse. Come Join Our 29 Group has been defeated.
"Stop kicking the dead horse." What warning is this? I seem to have been accused of doing something terrible, I'm scared and can't sleep at night ... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) It seems that it is displayed when you stab the end with counter damage. I usually played without looking at the logs at all, so I didn't notice at all. Well then, thank you. --- No, but I'm not convinced. Even though I died at the counter without permission, even though it is such a system Why do I have to be blamed? In that case, make a system that does not die at the counter (it will stay at 1 HP remaining). I thought, but is it a message with some original material?

Thanks for your answers, makes a lot of sense! How does dark compare to wind/elec for P-Fest though?

Dark, wind and elec are all roughly the same in pfest performance. Dark has a theoretical tiny loss in EDB from using 3+2 (or 4+1 robe) even accounting for the bonus to base dark EDB on willow staff, but it also has slightly stronger T2 and T1 spells, and slightly slower cast speed. All of which amounts to basically no difference thanks to imperil, the great equalizer. My elec set compares to cold mage very similarly - around 200 turns faster with ideal setups. I've asked wind mages for their results and they were basically exactly the same. Debuffs basically mean nothing to imperil mages. To pick whatever suits your needs: the biggest difference is that dark will cost you more mana consumables, less on cloth equipment, less on forging, more for a staff... compared to elec/wind. Charged elec/wind is expensive at the moment. Fire/cold gear is dirt cheap, but you are forced to make a choice between arena performance (redwood) or IW/fest performance (willow). None of the above options offer an easy route to doing pfests (or even IWBTH fests, frankly) so beware the common noob trap of being overly obsessed with element - at the end of the day it comes down to forging, good prefixes, a little prof grinding, and realistic choices for your prof slot (don't go 4+1 shoes as a beginner mage, for example, even if you have peerless willow + peerless shoes it's gonna take around 580 base prof to hit 0.79... and everyone thinks 580 will be easier than it really is).

Thanks. As you know I'm in fire mage right now (thanks in large part to your excellent advice), but figure I should start planning a second mage set if only for the ability to itemworld my own gear. It took me ~ 100 levels from start of planning my fire mage to finally being able to do it, so maybe if I start planning elec/wind/dark now I might be able to do it around level 500.

For Isekai, should I go for the arenas only, or should I focus on IW to give my equipment possibly useful upgrades? Also, for materials, should I go for auto-salvage or should I go for just getting them from monster drops?

depends on your goal. For trophies -> shrine -> peerless, you'd need a strong weapon so IW on weapon is mandatory, for the void strike + more damage. For tower, you need every defensive trick in HV, including IW of your gear. For materials, you will need to resort to salvage to get them. Just check the WTS/WTB prices of the iskekai materials to see if salvage is a good deal.

What are figurines that I keep seeing in shops? Are they just artifacts to use at the shrine?
