[X] My Assistant

Anyone willing to educate me in mage weapons. I got the feeling everything is savage trash but I'm not sure..
Is anything worth keeping for when I decide to use a keyboard or is everything scrap?

Legendary Tempestuous Willow Staff of the Curse-weaver
Legendary Arctic Katalox Staff of Heimdall
Magnificent Shocking Katalox Staff of the Demon-fiend
Legendary Tempestuous Katalox Staff of Focus
Legendary Demonic Katalox Staff of Destruction
Magnificent Ethereal Redwood Staff of Destruction
Magnificent Arctic Redwood Staff of Freyr
Legendary Shocking Redwood Staff of Destruction
Magnificent Shocking Redwood Staff of Destruction
Magnificent Shocking Redwood Staff of the Elementalist
Magnificent Shocking Redwood Staff of the Elementalist
Magnificent Hallowed Redwood Staff of Niflheim
Magnificent Redwood Staff of the Elementalist

Thank you in advance

none of these have value. Theoretically, the Leg. Demonic Katalox of Destruction could be used, but in practice there is no market for it because it is so much worse than willow.

Got it, thank you.

1. get some better armors

Well sure, but I was informed that rare equipments (those with ADB) has lower defensive capabilities, as such there's some soft lower level limit when it is recommended to use those. So I guess I will be leveling up first.

2. yes. Use monsterbation.
3. for some, it's faster. For me, it's not. Both link to the same Hentaiverse.

40 turns, which is for some reason only noted as a subsection of the Character Menu wiki page.
The main domain uses some Cloudflare services that can have poor performance for users in some countries. When experiencing poor connectivity to HV, it can be worth trying the alt domain to see if it addresses your issues.

Awesome, thanks for the info. Normal site feels fast enough but good to have a backup. Also, would have really helped if the items cooldown is placed also in the wiki on some page like the actual Items page.

Another question if I may. If I make a monster, but didn't properly feed / motivate it, it will become deactivated and loses it name. I don't play regularly so I'm hesitant to create a monster since I might not be able to maintain it, meanwhile monsters name's seems to be a big deal, if I read around here. Is my assessment correct, or are the consequences of not maintaining your monster actually not that big of a deal?

I usually only really play actively for a couple months at a time, and in between I'll just collect my dawn rewards, monster gifts, and click the feed and drug buttons. Takes at most 2 minutes. Just stock up on food/happy pills (or use crystals if you prefer).

Monster names don't really matter much. It takes a big investment for a monster to even appear in most people's battles (PL1500+ or maybe even 1600+ nowadays, so at least 500 crystal packs or about 10m credits worth).

After using a fully IW'd legendary shortsword of slaughter for a long time, I finally was able to obtain a rapier of slaughter cheap enough and low level enough for me to use. However, I recently read that shortswords are not necessarily worse than rapiers, despite market preferences.

Did I just waste 199k credits?

modern shortsword is pretty close to rapier. Especially after level 340, when Imperil is fully upgraded. Then it may well outperform a rapier with similar stats. However, your shortsword is 'obsolete' - it was generated in an earlier version of HV when equipment stats were much lower than now. The rapier has much better stats - much more attack (ADB) much more parry, etc. Use te rapier and never look back.

Just realized my main weapon is auction 50k+ skippable scrap.. that means, back in the day, (like 13ya) when the game dropped it, was kinda awesome?

What level does Peerless equipment begin to drop - in arena, RE or whatever?

Hell.

Am I correct in understanding that soul fragments in isekai are 10 per tower level and otherwise only available from the item shop at 1k/per?

that is correct yes. Quite expensive and a huge drain of ISK currency.

Hi, I'm wondering what traits I should be looking for in a Katana while doing IW and if is there anything important I should know while doing it?

Recently broke 1k Hath... which hath perks are more useful in general?

You mean potencies? Overpower 5, Butcher 4 (Fatality 4 works too) for the katana. IW will get harder the more rounds you go so lower the difficulty as otherwise it will be too hard to clear at that level, particularly if you have to use crappy gear to IW your better stuff. If your weapon is not of sufficient quality (aka legendary) you might not wanna invest that much into the Item World for the item besides getting the Hollowforge status at level 10 with whatever potencies you manage to get. And if it gets too obnoxious to get to that point might wanna consider using a simple IW service from whoever offers that.

If you engage in person to person purchases a lot, you know with CoDs and such then Postage Paid, otherwise Vigorous Vitality and Dæmon Duality I might prove useful. Proficiency 10%+ perks only if you have a mage set, and if that's the case then Enigma Energizer might be ok too.
Don't bother with exp boosting perks until you have finished the training, and avoid Soul Catcher like the plague if you do more than a couple REs a day. Everything else is a case by case basis and if you need it you will know when it's time - want to unlock monsters faster because it's slow and takes hundreds per monster? Tokenizer, struggling with mana? Effluent Ether and Innate Arcana, have a thousand sets to forge and you do your own IWs or offer IW service yourself? Dark Descent and Coupon Clipper, etc.

Hell.

Damn well that sucks.
That means I've been on PFUDOR since level 200 and gone 100+ levels without seeing a single Peerless.

That makes me.. Peer-full I guess?

that's normal, dude. They are super super rare. Don't expect more than one every one or two years, playing every day.

Not only can it take a lot of time, but the odds of it being useless crap are very high. And even if it ends up mildly useful, most of the Peerless don't sell for more than 2-5MC.
Just don't expect anything from the game, be it Legendary or Peerless, and be happy when you get something.

Sounds like there isn't a "get this first" anymore... I saw a couple of mentions of Innate Arcana being important in the wiki but I think its been reworked since then?

Kinda thinking of getting Tokenizer but I'm only at 10 tokens for my next unlock haha

Right now mostly doing RE because even the L100 arena takes like half an hour of time...
Haven't tried P2P transactions yet but maybe I should now that I've discovered one of my legendary drops is valuable

L100 you mean the 35 rounds one? Half an hour?
If so, my man, just sell hath for credits and look for better equipment, decent one-handed builds can clear that in 3 minutes maybe even less, getting hath perks should be last thing to think about at this point tbh
Just some decent power armor (no need to look for slaughter tbh bc those are more expensive, protections will be alright, maybe some balance to boost attack accuracy) , shortsword for arenas up to 75 rounds / rapier for 80+ rounds arenas, force shield/buckler of barrier, and you are good to go.

That sounds optimistic to me. It largely depends on your turns per second.

I just tried on pfudor Isekai at level 307 using exquisite rapier (forged 15, IW10) and force shield (forged 10), mag shielding cuirass (forged 5), and unforged mag power armor for the rest. It took almost 9 minutes. I then tried on persistent (I'm level 500, DDVIII) using mostly unforged legendaries (a few to 5), and it took about 4.5 minutes. For comparison, it takes me about 1.5 minutes using fully forged mage gear.
