(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) most curious. for this to happen, the script would have to fail to exit battle cleanly, and you would have to be using an older version of monsterbation

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Just too bad that i did my first GF without SoL quite some time ago. I was thinking, until now every time someone would ask about 2H i did advice to play it with shade. But i have to admit, i completly forgot about the existing of feather weight shards. I mean with a bit PM and MM forging together with feather weights this could actually work. Has someone done this before and can confirm the playability of 2H Power armor with feather weights?

I actually use my 1H persona, with 4 plain plate and 1 power, to sometime play 2H just substituting a Leg Etsoc of Slaughter in lieu of the 1H-weapon + shield combination. (and feather shards on armour) It is quite viable for Arenas (at my level), if you reach a high percentage on Domino Strikes proc probability; according to Wiki, 90% is maximum and I have 87% which means I almost always hit two targets at a time and often three. I usally use alternatively Shatter Strike in one round, and normal pounding to finish off everyone; then Rending Blow in the next round, again followed by pounding to finish off. Imperil or Weaken only from time to time, when there are monsters with high HP or they resist too much. This is my build : [attachmentid=126157] Edit: and this the equip.

Interesting, so it looks like a gamestyle to be recommended. But whould you say the feather shards are necessary to play 2H Power or do you think with enough PM MM it would be even good without? Btw are you actually playing this on normal? (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

with longsword/power, i can clear PFfest without using elixirs when feathered and sometimes need elixirs to clear IWs when unfeathered. the 11.2% boost in evade makes a huge difference, and considering the cost of feathers i would always use them even if i don't "need" need them

Time to call upon the fond memories of the Ancients:
Catalysts description say "[...] necessary for upgrading and repairing equipment [...]". Was there a time when it was right?

True, feather weights are cheap enough. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Catalysts for repairs? Well, at least not that i would remember it. This post has been edited by Uncle Stu: Jan 14 2019, 22:56

Checking release notes... That was added in 0.80 and removed in 0.82.

Just for a heads up: I spend 21 feathers (3 hours worth) for every 1H PFFEST I do, and 2 feathers (2 hours worth on the staff) to clear arenas as mage. Why not using these things that buff you up, while you can literally buy them 15/20c apiece? I don't regret buying a stock of 3000 of them back then. And my stock does go down, mind you.

been wondering this for a while, why is it now that i unlocked all monster slots still appears "253 chaos tokens needed to unlock next monster slot" message? Shouldn't it just be monster slots maxed or nothing at all?

But whould you say the feather shards are necessary to play 2H Power or do you think with enough PM MM it would be even good without? Btw are you actually playing this on normal? (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) I usually play longest Arenas with less then 80 stamina (entering and exiting IW to lower it) and at normal difficulty, because atm I don't want any EXP bonus. Already having the EXP from 50 Adept Learner and the cookies makes me level up a bit faster then I'd wish. But in that case, the play is so easy, that I don't need neither shards nor potions, and don't need to keep attention, just wack-wack. On higher difficulty, like Nintendo, I have to use all, and keep attention to everything. While my Estoc is forged to level 5, my armour pieces are not though. I suspect that with higher forging and full IW on everything, I could do IWBTH too (and perhaps PFUDOR), but I'm not interested in trying it atm. If I want to do IWBTH, and even PFUDOR on shorter Arenas, I just have to switch back to 1H.

Maybe the slot got increased last patch, or so I remember mmm... QUOTE(decondelite @ Jan 15 2019, 06:30)  Just for a heads up: I spend 21 feathers (3 hours worth) for every 1H PFFEST I do
Wait, is using feathers actually beneficial for 1H style mmm...~? I thought reducing burden will increase your aspd and evasion which is not always good for 1H mmm...~? This post has been edited by VawX: Jan 15 2019, 05:56

True, but a PFest is really hard. I mean so hard that even a high block and parry only helps you so much. So he uses the feather weights to increase evade, to increase speed and by that reduce also the overall damage he takes. It is not even uncommon to use haste and shadow veil in the last part of a PFest as 1H.

Well I personally use Haste and Shadow Veil in late round of PFest actually, never really thought about feather before, maybe I'll try it later mmm...

Personally i did too use haste and shadow veil, but now that i did it completly without, i guess i will even stop that. But i have no experience with the feather, i could do it without, so there was just no reason to me to use them.

QUOTE 1H style, 8256 base damage, level 365
Overwhelming Strikes, Heartseeker, Spirit Stance always active
Imperil + Penetrated Armor 3
Void Strike 12584 ~ 18876 versus Haruhis Wind Strike 11609 ~ 16988 versus Haruhis with Freezing Limbs Wind Strike 8282 ~ 12458 versus Haruhis
Void Strike 12780 ~ 18933 versus Konata Wind Strike 13067 ~ 19122 versus Konata with Freezing Limbs Wind Strike 12748 ~ 18963 versus Konata Dark Strike 5822 ~ 8520 versus Konata It's difficult to inflict Freezing Limbs so my data ranges are not as perfect this time. But it's solid enough to prove that Spike Shield ailments are also additive and capped at zero mitigation like Imperil. There were no surprises and everything else worked out as it should. Only the day element bonus can drop mitigation negative.
