I have a question as a first time newbie. I just finished the first battle in the arena and got an average katana. I now have a colldown period for that arena so I was looking at the other battle modes but I am not sure if I should try anything else as such low level (lv 4). What are the requirements for the item world for example. should I try it right away or wait before improving the katana? And the Grindfest seems kinda hard with the 1000 battles, is it a one go thing or I can pause and come back? Idk if I should try grindfest since Idk if I have to go through all of it and I dont have any equipment except the katana...

Thank you!

I'm not an expert but I'll try to answer. Basically at your level (lv.6) there's no need to worry that much and you can just try all the battle modes. With a weapon it should be easy for you to complete 20 rounds IW, and there's no requirement for that. IW with more rounds could be difficult however, but you can flee anyway. And that comes to your second question: No, you cannot pause the Grindfest, nor could you finish it, but you can just flee when you find it too hard for you, but you'll kinda waste the 1 stamina you paid when enter it. When I was at your level, I tried the Grindfest first and fled at the 20-ish round, and went to fight higher arenas and get more equipment. After that, I played IW for exp. But you could just play randomly, and there's not much difference. You will be back on track eventually as you become more experienced.

check the wiki and guides in this forum, you will become an experienced player soon.

seems you find the answer yourself (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

First battles, you can equip whatever equipment you get. Just have fun with it! Personally, I find it a nice challenge to try to play on hell difficulty from the beginning. Not easy, but achievable. For that, you need to use 'f' (focus) when you get low mana, and 'd' when you get low health. And you need to keep a close eye on your abilities and stat points. Upgrade those whenever you can. And don't forget to slot your abilities! Next, you need to arrange your inventory, make sure you bring everything with you. And lastly, go to settings and put heal and other supportive spells in your quickbar.

Ah, a small question: What do I need to do to prepare for the upcoming Easter event? Should I train my Scavenger (currently 13/50) and Archaeologist (currently 2/10) a little bit? Or they're just useless and what I need is tons of energy drinks? Thanks for any advice! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

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

Did some calculations and I'm expected to obtain 18.15 special artifacts to collect a full set of event items. If the event lasts for 9 days, then I have to collect 2 artifacts per day. At least it seems possible (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

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

Finally I obtained the OFC, so I have another question: when should I use it? In schoolgirl arenas, or in regular arenas, or in GF and IW? It seems that spirit stance is more useful though

Is there a link to a list of all the weapon and armor lottery items that have gone by? I'm curious about how often certain things appear.

I had a question about equiping an Ethereal Rapier vs an Ethereal short sword, the Rapier gives a proc that reduces physical defenses. Does that mean physical migation or crush/slash and piercing? Does that even help me when all my damage is 'void'?

yes, the 'penetrated armor' helps a lot, for all types of damage.

Is the idea of having lots of monsters in the monster lab that are not exactly a high power level largely for the guaranteed gift periods for things like bindings?

I only have about 15 monsters but they're all slowly being upgraded in all stats. Should I divert my Chaos tokens into just creating more monsters rather than spending them for monster stats?

Yes. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) The more monsters, the higher the number of gifts you receive (think, for example, in the total amount per month). (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

Put chaos tokens in attributes does not make much difference in the amount of gifts, unless the monster has a very high PL (like above 1500). (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

360 is a little higher than I would expect at your level, but still reasonable. If you can't do anything else with your experience, you might as well put it into strength.

My mage has 377 Str. If I reduced it to zero, I still wouldn't be close to being able to increase any other attribute by 1 - I'd have about 15% of what I'd need to increase my next lowest attribute by 1, and between 2% and 5% of what I'd need to increase any of the others.

Uhm Snom's correction, Snom means that it's 360 Str was counted just by not being counted the Artifact Bonus nor Isekai Bonus. If all bonuses were counted, the Mage Snom's Str would over 400 in total for sure....

That's what I assumed. I'm guessing that the amount of experience you put into Str is too small to do anything else with, although I don't remember what my stats were at your level.

My current stats

If your other stats are close to 400, you may have a problem. If they're close to (or over) 500, I wouldn't worry about it.

edit: If you're really worried, just take Str down to zero, and see if the experience you get back is enough to increase any other stat. If it isn't, put the experience back in Str.

Thank you! Now Snom knows Snom's stats are fine ! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
But Snom does still not dare to put an effort on mage stuffs yet, mostly because of it's poverty unlucky. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

Just now, I ran into a captcha with 4 ponies (counted the heads since other parts could be misleading).
I thought it was limited to 3, and confirmed that's what is said in https://ehwiki.org/wiki/RiddleMaster#Mechanics
Are both my memory (wherever that thing got information) and the wiki outdated?

One of the possible images is a Pinky riding Pinky, so, combined with two more ponies, it looks like four ponies.

Noticed something else weird about prof gain. Before a run, character screen says I have 496.857 elemental prof. Monsterbation says I gained 0.060 elem. Character screen says I now have 496.890 (+0.033). That's almost half the gain I was supposed to have. What's broken - the per-round reports, the script, or the core?

To make it weirder, a few minutes later it jumped to 496.892, but it hasn't gone up further.

Next arena (Trio & Tree) Monsterbation +0.070 elem, character screen +0.037
And again, a couple of minutes later it ticked up by 0.002.

EoD: Monsterbation +0.048 elem, character screen +0.035


Now, if we look at the ratio of prof gain to XP, the character screen values don't show the deficient prof gains from the schoolgirls that I'd been finding.

Ratios calculated as e.g 60/1164 for +0.060 elem on 1,164,387,945 EXP to avoid needing a special calculator.
70 rd: 0.051 vs 0.030
75 rd: 0.054 vs 0.030
80 rd: 0.040 vs 0.029
85 rd: 0.040 vs 0.029

And there's also less variance. So I'm leaning towards the explanation being that the per-round reported prof is rounded to the nearest 0.01, which makes Monsterbation's ability to report a running & final total more misleading than useful.
