[X] My Assistant

Why you didn't already have your Pack Rat training maxed out by this point in time is a mystery to me....but to each his own, eh?? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Because it is only useful for fighting the RoB enemies (and possibly End of Days at 220).

Well defeater Ryouko with the wrong equipment setup. I was planning on using sword and shield, but I forgot to change back. Ended up burning 4 greater mana, 2 superior, 2 elixer. I got hit by 2-3 impalers and 3-4 of them missed. I used the PA poke and poison strategy because of the wrong setup, I didn't use holy

Yuki too. Used 3 sup, 3 god, 2 elixers. Also the PA poke strategy with poison

Real Life defeat at the third try!!!

[img.photobucket.com] (IMG:[img.photobucket.com] http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v390/Anv/th_RealLife.png)


My setup: DW (axe in main hand and rapier), haste in auto cast slot, lvl 104 (his 99)

Item used: Mana Elixir x 7, Godly Spirit Potion x 2

Strategy: simple, just keep casting poison (if PA proc, cast again), weaken, regen, cure I, spark of life (when his sp full)

Total 717 round, 5 Internet Shutdown (1 miss), using all the item, had 264 MP and 50 SP left, can withstand another IS (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

The Fuck? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
I can easily kill Manbearpig and Mithra when I find them in Item World.
So I tried to get easily earned 10000 credits in ring of blood.
Got stomped by Dalek in 5 turns and did hardly any damage to him.

Any hints in defeating him? (im a melee)

Here's a good start for you:

Also leave MBP for the last, because you don't have bewilder yet and his spirit attack is magical, so it kill you in 1 shot unless you bring fire mitigation, you can actually still kill him at your level, but kill the easy ones first.

Edit: all mobs including bosses are much easier in IW, it's normal they're much tougher in RoB

You do know that enemies in IW and Grindfest have a 50% reduction to the damage they do? This decreases by 1% per round. After 50, they start doing more damage than they do elsewhere.

Also, I beat Real Life using a staff for giggles. That was a bitch. With Nerf, Soul Harvest was doing about 1,000 damage per hit which was only twice what my axe does when I DW kill him. I ended up using 7 mana elixirs. That is definitely not a strategy I would suggest anyone use.

I should re-write a bunch of that. Meh, I'll do it when I hit 200.

congrats for that (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) , but probably once you get X-magic that would be a lot easier, 25% less time means a lot, especially when you don't have nothing to protect against severe damage hits.

Yuki Nagato down!

(IMG:[i184.photobucket.com] http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x207/buktore/yu3333.png)

Spawned Monster A: MID=23 (Yuki Nagato) LV=80 HP=67830 MP=31 SP=20 NA=71 Type=hostile

First try, using DW as I fought Ryouko and same strategy, the usual buff, de-buff and keep whacking her..

Using 2x Scroll of Avatar, 4x Godly Daught, 2x Mana Elixir

DEUS EX TEDIUM
----or----
HOW I KILLED FSM ON MY FIRST TRY
(IMG:[i42.tinypic.com] http://i42.tinypic.com/wufihi.jpg)
(IMG:[i42.tinypic.com] http://i42.tinypic.com/2woer2p.jpg)

-Used a Staff with a focus on Ether Theft chance and duration (40%, 2 turn seems to be the max post-nerf for my level)
-3 Godly Spirit Draughts used (of which only two were needed)
-Possibly the longest battle in HV history (1000 more turns than hitokiri's BattleToads Trio fight).
-No Dark Mitt (other than what Dark Rating and Spectral Auras afforded me)

My equipment:
Average Willow Staff of Destruction
Fine Gossamer Cap of the Owl
Fine Silk Robe of the Fleet
Average Silk Gloves of the Fleet
Average Silk Pants of the Racoon
Average Silk Shoes of the Fleet
40.9% Evade (+18.8% SV = 52% Evade)
7.4% Parry
16.9% Resist

Proc'ed on me:
-Shadow Veil and Haste on Innate Arcanna
-Arcane Mediation on Channeling
-Regen II on Channeling when I could
-Absorb on Channelling or ample MP
-Spark of Life always up

Proc'ed on it:
-Nerf, Bewilder, Weaken, Spreading Poison, Slow

My strategy was basically to proc ether theft and channeling constantly. When I had ample MP, I used Banish to try and proc Coalesced Mana/Channeling. When MP was getting lower (say, less than 70%), I used Magic Missile. My priority with Channeling was to renew procs, only Banishing if everything was in order (probably why it took so long, but I figured I couldn't risk it since I didn't have the foresight to bring any Mana regen as backup). I'd say most of the damage was done with Channeled Banish, but Poison definitely contributed.

With Bewilder preventing crits, Absorb combined with my other stats to give a 10% chance for Puff of Logic to get through. Slow, Haste, and Poison made these attacks come at 70-turn intervals or so. In total it hit me about ten times, sucking up two full Spirit Bars plus 5000 turns worth of SP regen.

I say it's my first try. Funny story: having originally used this strategy to kill Real Life using no items, I decided to try it on IPU (who I still haven't beaten). But I brought the wrong equipment set while trying to optimize my equipment with some Holy mitt in the mix. Cooldown initiated, I decided to test this strategy on FSM with my normal equip to try and gauge how much awesome Dark mitt I would have to acquire. Turns out the answer is 'none.' With Weaken, Regen II easily covered the damage FSM dealt out and then some. In retrospect, max Evade is definitely the way to go because the only threat is Puff of Logic. You could try maxing resist, but Burden/Interference might bite you in the ass; also his normal attacks might start winning in the balance over Regen II.

I think this strategy can probably be tweaked to something more aggressive, taking less rounds while using more Spirit items, but as it is, I think any extremely-patient, sufficiently-prepared level 150 person could do this (Regen II is important for the MP/HP balance, that's why level 150). My equipment was good, but not godly; I think 40% Evade is within the grasp of just about any level 150 character. 40%, 2-turn ET staffs are uncommon, but by no means rare. Even though I rearranged all my AP for the battle, I honestly could have done with very few AP spent (Max MP/SP/HP Tank was a nice buffer, but wasn't 100% necessary). And to top things off, my Divine proficiency is only 100 (my staff prof is 150, but weapon profs are easy to get up in cake IWs). Maybe not the best way to kill FSM, but likely the most accessible.


Well on a different note, I've been power-grinding to try to get to Level 150 ever since Level 100, playing way too many hours a day and this day-long battle really burned me out. I think this is a good point to take a break from HV.

(If you're wondering, Noodly Appendage traded for some abysmal Buckler. Should'a just sold the thing.)

I was bored, with no arena to fight and reaching the limit in item world.. I bring my club and rapier to fight Ryouko.

Well... I lost, spending 492 turn fighting her and bring her life to about 20%

but it was a quite a funny match and I learned some thing from this fight. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

- With 19% PA chance in off hand, It proc much less than I expected.. lesson learned.
- With 25% 2 turn Stun club in main hand, she spend most of her time being a sandbag for me to pummel her.
- Because of the above, you don't actually need to cast a lot of supportive spell or using scroll like you normally do, the only time I have to heal is when I got hit by Impaler.
- But without PA, all you could do is scratch her.. (30-40) but this is to be expected.
- She doesn't seem to have lower mitigation to "Crushing" like she have in "Slashing" and this little experiment is the main reason I fought her with a club.. So yeah, one more trivia to know, if anyone care that is...

with PA
451 2 Your offhand hits Ryouko Asakura for 121 piercing damage.
451 1 You hit Ryouko Asakura for 205 crushing damage.

- It's actually winnable if I really want to, but.. why would I do that..? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Flying Spaghetti Monster Down

(IMG:[i40.tinypic.com] http://i40.tinypic.com/35jwdck.jpg)

Fighting style:Axe+Rapier

Strategic:Weaken+poison, very rarely PA+poison (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif), bewilder+spark of life+absorb when his SP was almost full, and hit hit hit... a little tired after... and hit again. (yes I didn't forget Haste... because it wasn't need to use (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) )

stats:
28,6% parry
21,8% evade
67,4% dark mitigation (nope, not a single dark rating)

Axe
Rapier
Mitigation Gear:
Cap
Breastplate -> check the ID, is the oldest piece I current have (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Gloves
Leggings
Shoes

Items used: about 8 last elixirs and 4 mana elixirs, 1 scroll of gods and 1 infusion of divinity

Too tired to show stuff, but the story is very simple: VERY BAD ROLLS (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Puff of Logic:
9 hit
22 absorbed
3 evaded
2 resisted

Doesn't look like so bad isn't it? Well the first 2 hit me making casting 1 last elixir right after wasting MP, which was good because the 3rd time hit me again.
Then just after wasting MP casting spark of life by mistake, he decided to just don't hit with puff of logic for a while, so I had to recast spark+absorb+bewilder a few times until he decided to cast it. When he decided to cast guess what? He hit me again (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mad.gif), only after the things start to look better...
2nd I didn't saw PA on the first 1/3 part, which make my poison damage garbage for a long time (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif), when it appears hurray I think, and then it proc'ed in a space of 10-15 turns 4-5 times, and another few hundred rounds without seeing it.
I was about to quit because, well it was obvious I was going to lose, but I decided what the hell credits are to spend so till the end.
And things start to get better although, only on the final 1/4 I started to get PA enough to make a decent poison damage for a while.
Despite all that I only could do it because I noticed sooner that I didn't need haste, regen could take the damage taken so it was up 80-90% of the time, I only need to cast cure in four occasions, and since it's more mana efficient than haste (without IA of course) I saved a lot of MP in there.

Well that's all for now, since RoB is finished, and I can say proudly I'm one of the first 10 to clear RoB and the 2nd to clear below level 150 (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Items used: about 8 last elixirs and 4 mana elixirs, 1 scroll of gods and 1 infusion of divinity

Yeah, because back in the day, we weren't crazy enough use 8 last elixirs.

I beat the White Bunneh twice now, yay! Yeah, it was in IW but I'm still proud. It was actually pretty easy, did it in under 100 turns both times.

BTW, I invested in equipment that's higher than my current level. I have a kick-ass level 200 two-handed sword, so every time I level up my stats and percentages go up instantly! But now I need more money, teehee. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Yeah, because back in the day, we weren't crazy enough use 8 last elixirs.

Better safe than sorry don't you think? Besides the only reason I did this way it's because I'm still get 3 bleeding turns from my Axe, if I get the 4 turn before l150 FSM is totally beatable with silence using Axe+Shield (it was my first try and only ~5-10% HP remained), and that way I don't need any last elixir (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

@kingwolf: congrats for beating a boss, but don't forget they a lot easier in IW than in RoB/Arena (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Edit:
@Boggyb: No I'm wrong, I could kill FSM at level 110 despite only having 3 bleeding turns, I just need IA 4 saving a lot of MP with haste on auto-cast. (probably 1/4) And IA already existed in the time you guys killed the RoB enemies

Probably yes, just don't forget to bring a scroll of avatar so you can survive her spirit attack.
Mikuru is when things start to get tough

Depends on your equipment? I took out Konata and Mikuru at 75, Ryouko at 80, and Yuki at 81, so you can probably take out Konata. I was able to survive Konata's spirit attacks then so I think you probably could too but I had pretty good equipment for my level at that time.

edit: Ryouko and Yuki were quite a pain for me though.
