QUOTE(ravenfrost123 @ Mar 21 2018, 07:54)  The Monster-Lab meta seems a lot different now than it used to be. Most of the comments I've seen seem to indicate that monster type doesn't really matter, crystal allocation doesn't matter, and so forth. I'm assuming the basis for this is that we assume people rarely die, that you typically win a battle just because someone has to go walk their dog or some crap and decides to run away from a battle.
Aye. QUOTE With those two assumptions, I had a giant that I had only pumped Str/Dex/Agi/End, I believe at a ratio of 9/7/5/9, and it absolutely destroyed all my other monsters in terms of battles won / killing blows. My Humanoid that was/is 100 PL higher isn't even close. I remember being so annoyed that I had created it because I would run into it all the time.
(To be fair, back then Super Ethereal gear was expensive, you didn't regen to full between different battles, you could only carry a max of 1 item per slot going into battles, yada yada yada, so people probably died way more frequently) From a certain point of view it was even a bit more entertaining. Micro-management, spirit theft, occasional focus etc. Now, users have to pick whether hovering while reading galleries or watching a porn. Something inbetween theae two conditions woyldn't be bad.

Yeah, I remember trying to do any arena challenge past the 5th one on PFUDOR being completely impossible for me, then at some point it became almost impossible to die even on the final arena challenge on PFUDOR.

It's still very possible to die especially as mage in last rounds of PFUDOR grindfest, but we can't imagine dying on the final arena. SG are tough, they slow you down, but they can't hurt you at all.

Where should I stop my upgrades for my rapier? Should I just max upgrade certain attributes over time?
Go check the workbook Scremaz made. That tells you the percentages your forging does. If you have very limited budget, I suggest forging to at most 25 for now. After that maybe you should invest some repurposed actuators into your armors. Forge Optimizer1.2Protections are always better. But If you three to four protections already, try warding.

Imo, just upgrade it full. Everything you are able to. I would only say that that AGI has a low priority -i use it just to get some free AGI points to set some XP free- hit chance is really not important for 1H and after 200% overall it does not matter in any way. And i have reached a number above 200% without any really forging in hit chance. Also you can ignore spell damage, if you dont play as 1H Mage, you dont get anything from it. QUOTE(hentailover6983 @ Mar 22 2018, 02:36)  Hm, damage is quite similiar. As are the PA. Well, when i look at the PM i would say use the Protection. I would. QUOTE(-vincento- @ Mar 22 2018, 02:44)  Protections are always better. But If you three to four protections already, try warding.
True, but did you notice the PM from the Protection Armor? This post has been edited by Uncle Stu: Mar 22 2018, 03:50

You get coolness, and rapier upgrade is kinda cheap (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) . 15M in total for a full upgrade without AGI. This post has been edited by as013: Mar 22 2018, 04:34

QUOTE(hentailover6983 @ Mar 22 2018, 08:36)  Go for the protection one, i combined them actually (1 protect-3ward-1slaughter). 1x cure and 1x full cure in 100 rounds arena and add infusions to your rapier to make better clear time. And for protection, maybe you should get Juggernaut 4/5 like the warding one...

Yeah, i know and you and me we both do this. Even when it will take me still a while. But let us be honest, this is nothing that is really recommendable for someone who has just begun to upgrade his rapier. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif) That's right, like noob like me that only use this rapier (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif) And only got stats like this, do i really need to change my rapier? I only focus on my armors (no upgarde just IW max except helmet) lately...

QUOTE(Uncle Stu @ Mar 21 2018, 06:42)  But i dont know what you dont know, or what you actually want to know. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif) No, you dont waste crystals. In the end the overall PL of the monster is more importants as how many times you increase which stat. So, there are no specific useless stats from a monster, imo they are more or less equal useless. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I would suggest stop leveling abilities at all and use the Tokens instead for creating more monster. At least nothing important i could think of now. But somethings that could be in general be helpfull would be: That the monster class dont really matter, that you wont be able to create a monster that would be a playerkiller. That they just start to bring HG Material above PL 500. But if you actually want a monster that does appear in battle you need at least something above PL1000. Even a PL 25 Monster can bring you a phazon and the different between PL 25 and lets say PL 500 is nearly zero. So, just to get this straight, quantity beats quality and there is not much difference between the gifts of a high level monster to a low level one.

rapier is good enough for now, but you could consider re-IW if you have an alternative weapon to do it with. I believe swift strike is bad for 1h.

yes. Definitely quantity beats quality. There is difference in gifts at very high PL, but the price you pay for all the crystals makes it not worth it if you still have other uses for credits.

Re-iw is hard for me for now. So seems like i have to replace it.... But this week's auction is full of holy-dark mage gears.... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif)

What's equipment storage for? What can/can't I do with equipment placed there? What's the best usage for it?

To keep your precious equipments safe from selling/send via MM/salvage without your realize. And to keep "useless" peerless.. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif)

When you flee from the battle does your equipment take damage or not? or does it fully depend on monsters' ability to catch your ass before you're able to get it out?

So you can start an arena before Dawn of a New Day and it will still reset and be available to play again even if you clear it after the Dawn.
Does anybody know if the Mmit such as Fire Day and Elec Day is automatic or not? Ie. Tomorrow is Elec Day so if I start DWD 1 minute before Dawn tonight idrally I would get my Elec bonus during it

I guess that's how it works, as long as dawn doesn't triggered... [Correct me if i'm wrong]

I tested this earlier, and it appears to be the case going off my DWD PFUDOR turn count. It doesn't make it convenient really except for two DWD PFUDOR arenas a week, though.
