I see, so prefixes give Staffs a spell bonus unlike regular weapons which only receive an additional elemental strike.

Not quite. The elemental prefix does two things: give an additional melee strike of that element and raise spell damage of that element. Your Arctic Redwood Staff of Destruction will gain cold spell damage, but so will you gain cold spell damage from an Arctic Club of the Nimble or an Arctic Wakizashi of Slaughter. The elemental strike is a melee attack of that element. It happens regardless of whether the weapon is a staff of a sword. The spell damage increase also affects your spells regardless of whether the weapon is a staff or a sword. And, no, the spell damage boost of the prefix does not also increase the melee damage of the elemental strike. If, for example, you equip two arctic weapons. Also, if your weapon is Ethereal, and you get it to IW10, the weapon will gain a random elemental strike for its 10th potency, but it will not gain the boost to spell damage.

I see, my weapon is ethereal IW10 with fire strike, that's why I didn't know about the spell bonus. My staff is my first elemental weapon. Thanks for clearing me that.

those are the main relevant aspects for the respective playstyles, yep. actually the prefix always comes with a full (EDB + strike) package, but melees don't care too much about EDB and mages don't care too much about strike, so... noteworthy exceptions: Void doesn't bring EDB

QUOTE(iDShaDoW @ Jan 23 2018, 02:48) Thanks for the responses all. I got a decent Rapier but not quite sure it's one worth IW'ing like 75 times (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif). What's the minimum ADB you guys would be willing to accept when doing that many IW's on them - I know it's all subjective because some have really deep pockets; but just curious. 51.27 was it for me. But i would say i had also done it with 50.00. Beyond that, i am not sure. I guess it would depend on the other stats. If all important stats would be also quite high, i would set the min number for such an afford down to 48.00. At least that is my opinion, in the end you had for yourself to decide. But in the end i would suggest only to put that much afford into a rapier you are sure about to use for a very long time aka your endgame rapier. So if you actually would call this decent rapier your personal endgame rapier. I say do it.

Thanks. This one is 49.12. The other rolls aren't so amazing either. I this this is more of a soulfused stopgap on my way towards better gear. This post has been edited by iDShaDoW: Jan 23 2018, 17:57

Btw, just to mention this also. Perfect IW doesnt mean for sure that you had to reforge a single weapon 75 times. It could allready be first try that you get the perfect IW. With 75 reforge it was really a unlucky run. But in the end, i had never give up, the worst i would have done is sent it to someone who would IW it for me. Because imo there shouldnt be a compromise in your end gear.

Try not to spend more on IW (consider both shards and the service cost of doing the IW) than you would pay to buy or sell the base weapon.

Greetings HV community a belated happy christmas and new year 2018. I have been on hiatus from the site since the summer of 2017 and i return just now to find that the whole hentaiverse (pun intended ) (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) has gone toppsy turvy. As far as my eye can witness all old scripts are obsolete beside the updated script of random encounter by djackallstar and Inline difficulty changer plus there is no subsitute for HV Item manager and HVSTAT slim mod ( i just went with HVSTAT for firefox for now). Any kind of assistance relevant to the scripts will be appreciated? Regards

Is the 1000 round drop penalty still in the game? Can't find it on the wiki.

No, it was removed with 0.85: QUOTE - The global loot penalty for playing many rounds on lower difficulties was removed. Instead, only when doing Grindfest and Item World, a fixed rare drop modifier is applied to artifact and token drop chances, decreasing the drop rate for these two types of items at lower difficulties.

How much would this thing be worth? I know that charged cloth is sold at ridiculus ammounts, but then again it's earth-walker and 306 lvl, and what would be the difference in price if it would be IW'd to holy/dark proof?

I wouldn't accept such an equip neither in my auctions nor in my WTB, it means how much it's worth. QUOTE(decondelite @ Jul 27 2017, 23:19) - Legendaries below Lvl350. No particular criteria, I will judge them case by case. Exception: salvage your Cotton of Earth-Walker/Curse-Weaver/Warding for the well being of humankind.

At least a few levels, as long as it's not too expensive for you. For my part, I stayed at Assimilator 5/25 because that would barely make any difference for me and I have better things to do with my credits.

I was in the late 200's I think when they made the change to proficiency. I only had 2 levels of assimilator, and now, at level 382, my one handed skill is at level 421, staying well out in front of my level. I do not think you need to put any more than 2 points into it, or maybe even just 1 point, as I think it only comes into play when you get higher level, and the Dawn of the New Day makes up a larger chunk of your exp.
