First, Stocking Stuffers are not tradeable any more (a change implemented this year, at February iirc). So you can only shrine those, and hope for a lucky drop.
...

You need to invest a good chunk amount to boost 1h speed solely from equip, small increment will only add small boost (well, unless your current equipment is downright terrible - which I think yours is not).
Check how you play, do you use the skills? imperils? vital strike to sg?
Do you have OFC? if yes, did you use it? if not, get one, and use it on non sgs, that's one sanity boost for playing 1h heavy.
Also, how slow is your clearspeed on arena, if you're already close to 30 minutes on PFDWD then there is really not much room to expand with only small amount of credits.

RIP, didnt know about stocking not being tradable QQ.

Tbh im not even sure of my clear speed, since i havent done the arena for like two years, lol. But i think the longest arena took me around 30ish minutes, with or without casting imperil, so i stopped using it. I did use vital strike on the sg.
And nope, i do not have OFC at the moment. Is it that great even w/o the hath perk ? I guess i should get it asap then.

I tried shortsword at some point in the past and was kinda dissapointed, so ill stick to rapiers.

Well, on to selling all valuable stuff i can and gonna be looking out for a new weapon, helmet and feet firsthand i guess.

Thanks for the input guys.

Provided you have enough adb, it should one shot most enemies while leaving the rest on lowish health; It is nice to see 5+ monsters suddenly dead or down to 1-2.
I consider it as a one round free pass every 2-3 rounds on grindfest, and I only have slightly over 10k adb and DD 1 when I still use 1h to do grindfest.
The hath perk is possibly overkill instead of necessity.

It is very useful, if you can replenish the pips fast enough; and with figurines around 16k each, it's cheaper then ever (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

And IA 1-2-3 are also very useful if you can get them; not just to save mana but also to speed up play and being safer then with manual casting.

Bought the figurines on market, waiting for spell to appear somewhere. I have IA, bought 4th today, which was kinda a mistake i guess, since i use only 3.. could have gotten something else which would be more useful.

E: actually now that i look i am using the 4th slot, but on haste. Remember seeing some discussions whether its viable to cast haste as 1h, can anyone clarify that please?

If there isn't survival problem, Haste and Shadowveil are not good for 1H, they increase your speed (in game speed) and evd so mobs attack less or be evaded more, which makes you block less, then you counter-attack less. So Haste and Shadowveil are not good.
But they're still useful if there is survival problem.

The 4th IA slot is useful whether you occupy it or not, because higher levels of IA save you mana. I was not willing to purchase IA until I was ready to start with IA4, and I left the final slot empty.

If you only have a few levels of IA then you will waste more mana compared to hardcasting everything, which could trigger channeling.

Haste and Shadow Veil have huge defensive benefits (33% and 25% reduction in damage respectively, depending how you look at them) compared to the loss in 1H overall offense which people originally either theorized/calculated incorrectly or didn't test carefully. The 1H side effects of Haste are complicated and may worsen your overall offense by 1% ~ 5%, while Shadow Veil should worsen your overall offense by 2% or less.

So you should absolutely use them if they help you survive even a little bit. After becoming high level a 1H player is effectively invincible but it's not a terrible hindrance to leave one of them on.

Spirit Shield can eliminate the need for Haste or Shadow Veil with 1H but its spirit drain formula greatly favors higher level players. So low level players may consider using Haste or Shadow Veil instead of Spirit Shield; at some point as player level and spirit increases then the standard advice of using Spirit Shield and no Haste/Shadow is more foolproof.

--------------------

While many players are still not convinced by the above arguments, I feel at least another related old idea by now is proven wrong: the idea that Cold/Wind Shield are no good with 1H. The loss in counter attacks from using those is insignificant by a factor of a hundred of what was previously believed. Basically a 1H player should be infusing the element of the day and switching the elemental spike shield accordingly, and this includes Cold/Wind Shield.

In turn, and also for another reason (variable monster population) I believe that arctic 1H weapons are not necessarily better than tempestuous, shocking, or fiery ones. (I'm making no claim here about whether I think dark and holy prefixes are preferred for melee, as that involves other issues).

I'm not agree, saving mana draughts not really worth 500 hath. I was also think buy IA4 or not, or buy Resplendent Regeneration or Effluent Ether, but everntually i bought only Vigorous Vitality, dont see point in saving mana draughts.

How you get those 2% output dmg reduction?

Been using the equipment percentage ranges script, but some of the values are negative. Is there a reason why?

For example, this for instance:

[i.imgur.com] https://i.imgur.com/krhSPks.png

Also, on another note, is this worth anything?

https://hentaiverse.org/equip/272584062/6dd0c090d0

ADB is 39%, parry is 22% so I'm guessing not but ...

the ranges is using legendary min-max ranges by default, so it is possible that magnificent or lower will show negative value as they have smaller minimum value than legendary.
If you wants to see the magnificent range and what your equipment compared to other magnificent, try clicking the stats at the bottom (that LVL, pxp xxx, adb xx% and stuff at the bottom), it will open some extra option and information.

That equip is usable, I mean, you don't even need legendary to clear pffest at higher level.
But, I bet you'll get better stuff when you reach the point that you could actually soulfuse and use it.

Anyone know how to sell stars? Is it like an item that you can CoD or something else?

transfer btc/bch to buyer's wallet, and then take the credit
or do them in reverse order.

Anyone know how to sell stars? Is it like an item that you can CoD or something else?

it's a bit more complicated:
1. You buy BTC or Bitcoin Cash, 100 USD worth of it
2. You post a WTS for a gold star, price at about 80m or so at this moment, I believe
3. Someone wants that star and contacts you
4. You ask for the credits first. So this customer sends you the credits in MoogleMail
5. The customer sends you his HV-wallet address through PM. This is an automated PM from the system. Do not accept any other BTC addresses, or any other way to receive the address. Because it's automated from E-hentai.org, it can't be messed with.
6. You take the credits. Yay! You're rich!
7. You send 100 USD worth of BTC to the address that you received through PM. Check the most current exchange rate on the e-hentai donation page: this is higher than the market price for BTC. Make sure you send enough, also after the costs have been subtracted.
8. The customer gets the donation. yay! He's got access to the Gold Star Lounge!

Generally it would be better to take the credits first, then send the BTC.

Although I've never heard of it happening, if a scam were to happen, EH can only control the credits - not the money.

Is there any timer or countdown to when the Isekai season ends?
Does it end on the Dawn of the New Day of when it changes to the 21st? Or when it changes to the 22nd?

Clearly stated in the Release Notes pinned thread with 'Isekai Schedule' in the title.

Thanks! I missed that. I searched the HV chat forum for "isekai schedule" or "isekai countdown", but had no luck with that... Didn't think to look in the release notes. My bad.

Thank you so much for the very detailed explanation. Yea, if things can be done like CoD, people will feel secured, but the way it actually goes, both sides will take the risk of being scammed. I just feel like farming credits (I only know daily SG farming) is too time-consuming for me as an 1H player at 350 level now. So I am willing to spend a few weekend and try to find some part-time job to earn a few dollars and buy some BTC and sell, this is much quicker than farming 80ish million credit.

Yea, that's the problem, usually, in other online RPG game, such trade need someone who is trusted by both sides, for example, a trusted celebrity player or the official gamer master will step in and take the item and money from both side and finish the transaction. I don't know if there is such thing in HV.

Well, The system is the middle man. It took the money (any BTC transferred to e-h wallet can not be transferred out), it also control the credit, what else you're hoping for?

Oh right, the BTC cannot be taken out of HV wallet, that's good, at least scammer cannot cash the BTC. But still what if the buyer claims that he/she did not receive my BTC transfer while I have sent the BTC.
