OFC does decrease the clear time of DwD. Only with rounds of 3 SGs. It empties the equivalent of more than 1 full SG HP bar (usually around 1.5 for me) with a single click, therefore it's good.
On the other hand, I do have tied Vital Strike, and I don't think that stopping the hovering 2 seconds to chip off 1/2 a SG HP bar at best, which I'd have depleated with normal hovering in the meanwhile, can be considered as remotely useful. That is, I'm not even putting in the equation the fact that the SG must be stunned beforehand, which would nail the coffin of that "trick".

It's not the amount of Overcharge used or even the amount of turns that matter, it's the saving of time.

I haven't done SGs in a while since I switched to 1h mage, but I had hover set so that I only need to press shift to use vital strike, which reduced the interruption (I did still use OFC on the last rounds).

And you do all of that as 1H Mage? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Of course!

Kidding aside, I meant when I was using 1h heavy.

Oh, i was a bit confused about that. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

IW and forging helps sell equip?

not really

IW and forging can help sell equipment but usually it is the reverse. Even if it sells, you may not recoup the full investment of your IW and forging unless your equipment is very useful and you find a buyer who would actually use it.

The halloween event starts when? At Halloween? Silly question I know... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

ps: I recall there is one at Halloween right?

I don't recall of a Halloween event here so there probably isn't one.

we got a spooky news banner, that's all I guess.

Truth is after you cast OFC, you need much more time to retrieve those OC and kill the rest SGs. You would end up normal attacking monsters because you cannot even maintain your SS after you cast OFC, and because there are only 2~3 SGs countered. Lefting the other monsters alive, I can easily retrieve my SS and the OC needed to cast vital strike.

OFC only empties Kotana's HP and merely less than half of the others. Then you would need at least 30~50 turn+ to kill the left SGs and get back to SS

Also anybody who puts vital strike on a hoveraction won't waste 1 single second.

Is there any fastest(lowest turns) record of clearing GF x20?

The fastest one I know was sssss2 with Holy mage 3+2 in 2333 turns, but I guess it can still be improved in gear aspect.

improving ssss2's gear... is that even a thing?

Not peerless, gears not fully forged especially MDB, 1 cotton robe vs 2 cotton gloves+shoes etc

Hardly improvement, as he was using gum+vase at the time. Dead is dead.

How can that ever be cost-effective?

No Halloween event? My memory failed... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

It isn't. That's just something you try from time to time to see what the lowest turns possible is.

He also posted the turns for PFFEST without gum/vase. Those were impressive as well. iirc around 5000 turns?

I see. So how does this actual looks like anyway? I mean using vase gum. Because i cant see it as anything but burning money to use as 1H, i have never actually tought about it. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
