Power Armor. Why would one even use Shielding Plate? A bit more block is just not worth the lack of damage. Also Shielding Plate cant be Savage. And i love my full Savage set. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

How do I go about getting good block chance, then?
The shields I've seen only go up to about 40%, and the proficiency only gives 15% at 600 proficiency.
Although, I suppose 49% block chance is still kind of decent? But is there any way to get more, or should I just try to get high dexterity so I have good parry instead?

Get a good shield, forge that shield. And a bit prof does also help.

Ah, but you forget about the forging and the level.

See? Not a single upgrade and allready at 47.69%

Ah, that makes more sense then. I never knew shields could have that much base block chance.

Anyway, following the advice of basically everyone here, I switched from shade/dual wield to power/1h (I repurposed my old 2h persona).

Previously, I was facerolling IWBTH at a decent speed with spark of life barely ever proccing. Now, it plays basically exactly the same, except I'm on PFUDOR difficulty. And that's with only 37.6% block chance and 35.3% parry chance. It's probably gonna get even better once I get actual good gear.

Thanks everyone for the advice! I was a bit reluctant to switch to 1H at first, but upon learning it could sustain spirit stance 100% of the time (actually 95% of the time for me right now, but that'll probably be 100% once I have more block chence), I decided to give it a try and I am not disappointed. ^^

Well, 95% sounds about right. I mean you need at least four monster to let the stance run forever and when you get your OFC, you will also use quite a bit of overcharge for it, so 100% is imo not even needed.

Someone sent me some equipment links by PM and told me to offer a price if I want something.

This legendary rapier looks pretty good, and I almost have the required level to equip it, but I've never priced an item before so I have absolutely no idea what it's worth. I'd rather not pay too much and up all of my budget, or make a fool out of myself by offering way too little; does anyone here have an idea what might be a fair price for that rapier?

EDIT: Never mind, apparently he meant to remove that one from the list and plans to sell it for 1m, which would be my entire budget.

Swift Strike Lv.4 is a shitty IW anyway.
And tbh 1M for that rapier? I mean okay, its leg and low level. But i still dont see it.

^ 1M it's too much. He can get something better at half of that price or less on auctions with a little bit of patience.

Btw since you guys are talking about rapiers, is there anyone between levels 310-360 that would want this for free? -> Legendary Fiery Rapier of Slaughter Lv. 407. (ADB 70%, Parry 81%).

There are betters, I'm aware of it. But well at least it's free. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif)

If not I'll probably just finish the random item world that I started on it and then I'll send it to the depths of my inventory.

That's a pretty gopd auctionsble rapier.

Me!!! I have been dreaming about a decent rapier since the first time I learned about Penetrated Armor. Gonna soul-fuse it!

I could auction it no doubt (of slaughter with more than 65% on all important stats). But people tend to discriminate towards fiery rapiers more than surtr clothes. I prefer to gift it to someone than sell it for cheap. I sold an ethereal one two weeks ago for 2.5 M with worse stats, I doubt this could reach the same and even if it could I'm set on giving it for free. Uncle is right those things are overrated.

Why is this strikethrough? I am so confused, do you agree or not. Or did you agree and now you changed your mind. I dont get it. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

I agree with you, Unlce. Sorry, I tend to strikethrough things that I find a little bit out of place (that was something from another thread and all). (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/faint.gif)

Thank you so much! I have soul-fused it! Gonna finish its IW and start using it (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

So what? Imo it is important to tell people that they just nothing but overrated. And hey, maybe someone just reads it here and decide dont to waste 10M on a Leg Ethereal Rapier of Slaughter. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I wish someone told me about how overrated they are a few years ago. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif) Ethereal is for DW and not for 1H. And rapier are better than shortswords and it doesnt matter how many lotteries a certain person does puff up with way too many tickets for a shortsword to prove his point. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

On that 1M rapier, yeah I don't see it either - pretty mediocre stats so even with the low level 1M is a stretch (and the IW actually hurts it because swift strike is really quite terrible). Maybe a year or two ago it might have been able to sell at that price. On your budget I actually would recommend a shortsword - it'll get you through to higher levels where you can either go mage or upgrade to a better rapier at lower prices.

So what? Imo it is important to tell people that they just nothing but overrated.

Ok, Uncle. I edited my post. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Good luck~

*fingers crossed for more butcher levels and no more overpower*

I think that I should have reset the potencies of that thing. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/faint.gif)

Which one is best for my Elemental Strike, i have Ethereal Rapier.
If i dont have that Elemental Strike,should i reforge until have it?
(include b5+f4,that mean cost so many Credits )
I only play Arena.

Thanks!

Yeah, and besides that ethereal isnt good, it can also just fuck you up with the IW. *sigh* Let us be honest, in the end you will be happy with whatever you get after your 70th or 80 reforge just to get B5+F4. So going for a specific element and the perfect IW. Lets just say this could take you a while.

b5+f4 it's difficult already. If you want to add on top of it the elemental strike be prepared to spend a lot of credits. In your place I would just pray for cold, dark or holy strike but at the same time I'll wouldn't reforge in case I didn't get any of those. Specially if that is not your endgame rapier.

Oh! You can also use the trick of forging the rapier first and then leave it at iw9 then use two infusions. Ethereal weapons can be a headache... But well, that's my personal opinion.

damn, I missed the giveaway... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
well maybe it's better for other to have it as it provided only a little improvement over my current rapier...

maybe because wiki said it??? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
https://ehwiki.org/wiki/HentaiVerse_Advice_...ed#Melee_Weapon

probably because except 1H, other melee build prefer to reduce burden as much as possible to increase their evade...
but the current meta favor 1H build over other melee for a long time... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
