Are equipment drops determine by the equipment I'm using?

No, your equipment and your drops are total irrelative.

Are equipment drops determine by the equipment I'm using? I'm 1H/Heavy Armor. Over half of my legendary equipment drops were Cloth and I rarely get 2H or Staff drops of any quality.

Slot roll
Weighted: 9 / 3 / 3 / 3 / 15 / 15 / 15
(1H / 2H / Staff / Shield / Cloth / Light / Heavy)

Reference: https://ehwiki.org/wiki/Loot_Drop_Rolls

So yes it's normal that 2H/Staff/Shield were the least you got from the past are the rarest drops for everyone

You can add this as a suggestion, in the 'can we has' thread. Like with reincarnation shards, where you have to buy perks to get a head start. We do have a test account by the way, that you can use to see how low level play works. But the moogle is disabled, so it's not an actual account.

It would be fun just to scan monsters at a lower level.

Remember manticore? firefox? cookie monster?
Someone is scanning them. I saw a couple in the list.
Ahhh... memories. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

In one word? No! In more words? No, you are not! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

That will get you banned. Both accounts. You can be sure about that.

Don't worry, I promise I was just asking and not planning to do that LOL

On every game I've ever played online, they always had the one account rule. The reason I was spurned to ask the question is that I swear it feels like I've seen folks use two accounts sometimes. It might just be that their usernames are very very similar or something. I've once been sent something from a different account than the one I was talking to in the first place, hence why I was wondering.

No sir.

This place would turn into the wild wild west overnight.

Well... no it wouldn't.
Cause TenB would see it immediately and send the dual accounts to the moon.

Edit: It would be kind of cool to start over at level 1 though.
I see the desire if we could keep the toys we gained.
Just never try it.

Yeah, starting over at level 1 would be cool as hell. I think that's something I'd enjoy doing one day. And I wouldn't even want to be able to send myself super powerful equips either, I'd just want to start and grab stuff from self-drops. Just maybe try it in a different playstyle and see how far I get or something.

What's the best DW set? My main hand is an ethereal club and I have a superior axe with 800+ damage and a waki with 400+ damage for the offhand, which one is better? Is it worth to have a waki at all? Thanks

Sure a waki with hight parry as off-hand is imo allways worth it. But personally i would go with the Club as main. The stun does really help you to hit the monster. So i would say you deal in the end more damage with the club as with the axe. And imo the lack of parry on axes just makes them bad.

try with a rapier of the nimble or balance as offhand

Waki nimble has higher parry, but rapier has high parry too and should be slightly cheaper (well at that level both are pretty much the same) mmm...

So why is kiteshield considered bad again? the one in lottery today is very similar to the force shield from a couple weeks ago, just a bit lower block and higher burden. Is that really a big deal?

@Drksrpnt
From what i see...
1.It has lower block rate compared to a force shield ( which is the most important stat on a shield)

2.It has higher burden than a force shield which might affect your crit rate, thus lowering your potential overall damage. "A burden beyond 70 will decrease your crit chance by 2% per point of burden 70, effectively negating your crit chance at 120 burden" so says the wiki.

All around, they're the worst. Even a high block mag force shield could have higher block than a peerless kite shield. There's not much of a point in buying a kite sheild, even a peerless, when a dirt cheap force shield or even a half-decent buckler of the barrier would be better.

Actually, higher burden is an advantage on a shield, when you are below 70 burden like me.

Well, to be fair if you use featherweight charm on it - the difference won't be that big.

Enhancing an equipment with Featherweight Charm can temporarily reduce its burden by 7 or 50%, whichever is higher.

In this case it's 10.50 - 7 = 3.50 (roughly goes as a Force shield without featherweight). So it'll only affect the crit if you're over the limit already or literally on the edge.

Your point about the higher block on Force shields still stands, though.

That's why I said that it "might affect your crit rate, thus lowering your potential overall damage" since using a kite shield adds a lot of burden which might make you go over the 70 burden threshold.

Well yeah, you can use it to lessen the burden but using featherweight charm every time you go fight is a hassle.

Your point about the higher block on Force shields still stands, though.

To be fair, a Peerless Kite's block is equivalent to a 13.19% Block force shield. And I'd definitely chose the kite if I had to chose between both, for multiple reasons.

ask about auction pricing:
1.seems attack speed bonus is a bad thing for heavy armor 1H, would Mithril Power cheaper than non prefixes Power?
2.If different body slot with different pricing?

tks

It depends. Some good mithril power of slaughter could have higher price because mithrils are rare. Some high-level DW, Niten and 2H players use mithril slaughters for Arena, so they are not necessarily worse and cheaper. Just put the same price as they don't matter too much for low-level players.

Generally Armors and Leggings are slightly more expensive than other slots.

if Dampening is for giant, than Deflection is for what?

It's rather that Dampening is for heavy armor and Deflection is for light armor.
