QUOTE(Saioux @ Mar 22 2019, 21:42)  I've never did any infusion on armors tho. Well maybe a couple times but entirely by mistake
For weapon unless it's iw9 ethereal, you can get only one more elemental strike.
QUOTE(Uncle Stu @ Mar 22 2019, 21:43)  Infusion on armor are quite helpfull for doing some PFest.
I know. I'm thinking if I use all infusions on everything I would have 30% resistance to all elements. If infusion in combat also adds to that, then I can have 35% for one of the elements. Do you infuse all elements? I'll attempt my first ?EST when I'm ready :3 Is that how it works? This post has been edited by mouisaac: Mar 23 2019, 04:04

Without infusions:(IMG:[ imgur.com] https://imgur.com/wpgQFyq.jpg)(IMG:[ imgur.com] https://imgur.com/g6FVgwz.jpg) With infusions:(IMG:[ imgur.com] https://imgur.com/ifdrVAz.jpg)(IMG:[ imgur.com] https://imgur.com/2tmQjxb.jpg) I can still do the same with the other 4 parts of the equipment, and also with the shield. With the sword I can only use one infusion at a time, which results in an extra attack of the chosen element. However, adding an infusion of the same element that the sword already possesses unfortunately adds nothing (neither extra attack nor gain in attack power).

Thanks! I didn't know it will directly reflect on the stats... Just realize infusion on the weapon does not give extra resistance...

Guys, I have a question regarding gears linking to "alt.hentaiverse.org." I see many of those in various shops. Would there be any problem like they are from a different server thus cannot be equipped?

Thanks for the answer!
A more hardcore question regarding spike shield for mages. I got the impression from wiki that for an Elec mage, choosing Wind spike shield would help reduce mobs' Elec resistance.
Yet while I was glancing through relating info within this thread I read that this resistance reduction may be worthless:
"... But imperil mages kill all monsters in 1~3 shoots, as long as your imperil hits them. It's an OFC style. You don't need just a little more lowered resistance. If you have 0.78 prof factor, you can already eliminate all elemental resistance by casting imperils on monsters. The highest mitigation is 75%, but with 0.68 prof factor elementalists can already erase 68% mitigation ..." by -vincento-.
Now I am thinking, if this is the case, then the point of choosing a spike shield is then to get a certain resistance from abilities, or simply choose Fire spike shield to reduce mob's damage by 10%.
Any comments? I wonder if the planning of build should be something like: desired status effect (Searing Skin) => spike shield (fire) => IW10 requirement (Juggernaut 5 No Fireproof).

Ehm, when you go for Jugg5, i would suggest to just take what you get. Also fireproof is besides holyproof the best elemental Potency you could get. Elec is also good imo, but not as much as those two. But tbh i am not sure how important elemental mitigation are for a mage. Can a mage tell me if you actually do care about them?

Actually I myself do the same, I try to avoid Fireproof because I probably have enough fire mitigation from my spike shield. But since all other things being equal, Fireproof would arguably have been the second best element, I'll accept having any amount of Fireproof, ranging from none to above my other elements' average.
If you use infusions to add a second strike, then it could be a tiny bit helpful to switch around your spike shield to match, and doing that might make you temporarily weaker to Fire.
If you want to spend (waste) credits and have a better IW for bragging rights, I recommend going for Jug5 Any5 (two potency). Because elemental stacking is more effective when it comes in 5s. And I think Cap5 is pretty good too but opinions vary on that.

GF will cost 20 stamina right? So...does its income value exceed 200K? It's two eds value. I have no Crystarium I. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

QUOTE(kikikaki @ Mar 23 2019, 12:52)  GF will cost 20 stamina right?
Ehm, sort of. You have to keep in mind when you are above 80 stamina you use double the stamina. So those 20 are only true when you are allready below 80 stamina. QUOTE(kikikaki @ Mar 23 2019, 12:52)  So...does its income value exceed 200K?
You income depends on the difficulty, but without even Crys I, i would say no. But let me take a closer look, a PFest brings around 45k as credits drops together with the 5k clear bonus around 50k. With full quartermaster you should get at least 100 pieces of equipment aka mostly bazaar fooder. I would assume 20k~30k. And with archaeologist i never had never less than 5 artifacts. Those go for what? 22k? So another 110k if you are one of those who sell them. So only with that would that be 50k+25k+110k = 185k. And of course you get in 1k rounds a lot of other stuff, so yeah, i guess 200k are possible even without crys I. But tbh i still dont see the point doing GF without even crys I, when you do it on higher difficulty and with enough training. Otherwhise i would suggest do your daily arenas or when you allready have done them, do some random IW. This post has been edited by Uncle Stu: Mar 23 2019, 14:42

QUOTE(t_t_z @ Mar 10 2019, 16:56)  I kept my data in a spreadsheet instead, here are the most recent results: (sheet gfProfit for recent run data, itemPriceUsages for average usages/loots or such). [ drive.google.com] https://drive.google.com/file/d/16AFvrkQeAm...iew?usp=sharingMy stats are as in the screenshot above, which is not much different (if not slightly inferior) to yours. My Hath Perks: Vigorous Vitality, Resplendent Regeneration (lol), Long Gone Before Daylight, Innate Arcana IV (Protection+Spirit Shield+Spark of Life), Crystarium V, Tokenizer III, Dæmon Duality II QUOTE(kikikaki @ Mar 23 2019, 19:52)  GF will cost 20 stamina right?

The average revenue in t_t_z's spreadsheet is around 540k, and the cost would be consumables and EDs. If you have the LGBD perk and Crystal V, the profit of your daily first run would easily exceed 250k. If not, ummm.....

Hm, hard to say imo. Both shadowdancer, both zircon. But i would say the Level 500. I mean damage are both quite similiar but that one has much better evade. Also higher crit chance and more dex. Yeah, i would go for that one.

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) it's actually 21 1 stamina to enter the GF and 20 for the round. the income will vary from person to person.

It's safe to assume that Estoc is best played with O5B4 and shade armor. Mostly because PA benefits from attack speed and makes up for the lower ADB that shade has compared to power.
