QUOTE(igs88 @ Mar 17 2018, 14:55)  And using scroll didn't make any turns, so when using scroll no one's gonna attack you, that's why glass cannon is really need scrolls (i guess) [Correct me if i'm wrong]
that's not the reason. The reason glass cannon needs scrolls is because they give you more than a spell can. Try them, you'll see. One example: Spark of Life spell saves you from dying, leaving health bar at 1. Scroll of Life saves you from dying, and restoring health to 50% when triggered.

I never use scrolls. Does it matter if a player is using IA5? Should I be using them?

When you're done playing gum+vase style, then yes, of course you should use them. IA5 makes no difference in this decision. I use them after round 400 in PFfest, or after round 70 in IW on PF. This post has been edited by DJNoni: Mar 17 2018, 17:12

Gum/Vase in PFfest is addicting, it's so fast! Just outrageously... incredibly fast! And you live with very little effort through the entire thing. wow!! It's the only way I can make it through a thousand rounds. I never want to give up gum/vase. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) But I'll have to eventually. It's unreasonably expensive, but good on quick token/artifact collection without regard to cost. I'm going to try the scrolls today though, and see how far I can make it. Thank you!!

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif) I didnt knew that. I just thought scrolls dont cost mana, of course, and would stay longer as the same as spell.

Same here, until I made my first PFest mage clear, then I realized how much easier it is to spam scrolls instead of relying on IA.

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) I thought it's just a spark of life effect... What about scroll of god? It will give more than scroll of life, right?

QUOTE(igs88 @ Mar 17 2018, 14:34)  So scrolls are very useful for mages, and not for 1h like us? Well, actually i barely use them. What about the difference usage of infusion? For enchanment use before get in battle and usage in the middle of battle, because i never use infusions in the middle of battling... Scrolls can be very good for all classes. There is only one issue when it comes to 1H: while using Haste already has a negative impact on the amount of counterattacks, Shadow Veil will definitely cripple it to the point of being unable to remain in spirit stance. For my part, I never use scrolls when playing 1H PFFEST. If it gets too tough, I just restart the PFFEST: it's way more time-efficient. Using scrolls is only ever a good thing to do if it can allow you continue the PFFEST till the end, IMHO. it Is also justified if you need them to go until the end of an Item World.

I asked this before but I forgot the answer, how many crystals is needed to level a monster to at least 750? to at least 1500? and where can i find this info myself for future reference (I'm apparently really bad at finding the right key words to search on the wiki)?

So I got myself a new rapier, does the IW look passable? I know it's far from ideal for 1H Power, but it's gotta be better than Overpower 5, right?

Well, i guess for your level it is okay. Personaly i would prefer an IW with at least a few butcher but, it will work atm.

When I'm picking Power Armor, what should I go for as a starter set? Magnificent Power <gear> of Protection? of Warding? Shielding Power <gear> if possible? Mix of Protection and Warding? Are 2 stats OK for gear? I'm aiming to run around in PFUDOR arenas with 1H + force shield.

for arena's, magnificent is probably good enough if you have a good rapier and a good shield. Shield is your defense, so high block lets you play Pfudor arenas. - shielding power? Sadly, that doesn't exist. Feel free to use shielding plate, that would work. - magnificent power of protection or warding is both fine at your level. - Try not to soulfuse, unless the gear is very very good. that way you can just resell the item - check out the low-level gear auction in the WTS (pinned thread)

Is there a script that tracks the amount of restoratives used? Is such a thing possible without breaking any rules
Also what is the amount of time between item usage?

please read the answers: QUOTE(plam412 @ Mar 16 2018, 03:46)  Edit: also is there a cooldown time in item use. I can't seem to find it on the wiki.
QUOTE(Scremaz @ Mar 16 2018, 10:17)  should be 40 turns or so
