damn no wonder i sometimes get pwned 1st round in normal without heal.my armors only negates 11physical 12.5 magical.a single peck hits me for ~90dmg.

You should just run light armor instead of light plate. I have nearly the physical and much more spell absorption with way less burden and interference and I'd bet quite a bit I have higher evade. Dual wield just doesn't go with plate imo (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

That is pretty much how I'm running, but I like dual wielding for the hourlys and low level arenas but use a staff for grind fest & arenas of more than 3 rounds.

Can anything cause the MP cost for spell to rise, excluding deduction of AP from said skill of course. I'm asking this because I distinctly remember that while I was grinding yesterday I had 12 MP left and what saved me the round was being able to cast Cure 3 times, meaning the cost would've been 4 MP, today the cost is 5 MP. Is my memory failing me or what's the deal here?

MP cost of spells rises with your level and base mp amount. If cure still cost me 4 MP I'd be unstoppable.

Leveling up causes the cost to go up


Edit: Damn Bob, you beat me to it.

Mkay, makes sense, thanks for the quick answer.

I can't find leather that has the same amount of physical absorb on it, and most of my chainmail is only ~+2 burden and interference over leather, but much more absorb.

@Tenb: This is still happening. I dunno if it's supposed to happen or not, but the ordering does not look like it should be this way.

27 9 Effect Penetrated Armor on Blue Slime has expired.
27 8 Effect Silenced on Blue Slime has expired.
27 7 Spreading Poison hits Blue Slime for 62 damage.
27 6 Blue Slime has been defeated.

Nice update Tenb. Too bad i don't have any offerings for snowflake.

That makes two of us. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)


I might as well simply dub Tenboro's HV Script, as "The Sisyphus Engine...." it dangles just enough hope in front of your face to think that things are going to get easier for you as time goes on.....and then drops the hammer on you from time to time.

I never understood the point of raising spell cost. I'd prefer instead that the mana pool would rise more slowly (to keep the balance). It's simply annoying when I have to recalculate what I can cast, or when I fail a spell at low mana level because I didn't realize that now it costs one more mana point.

That has happened more than once......and has cost me my life in a tight spot more than once as well.

Thought we might be getting another update, there's some unrighteous lag happening that keeps jamming my gears.

Consider the power a spell might need. Take Cure for example; when your lvl 20, your a skinny fellow with barely any meat on your bones and a small life force. Cure didn't need much 'raw power' to heal you up. Now at level 130, you have bricks for mussels, your life force lights up the city; thus Cure needs more 'raw power' to heal you up.

Offensive wise, consider as you level up, aside from proficiency, you learn that fireball costing a little MP does a little damage, but if you add more MP, you can get bigger damage. You may also learn that due to your awesome magical powers, if you put too little MP into it, it fizzles out while putting in too much it goes boom in your face.

Magic Missile seems to be the best example here; some one I refereed a month ago who thought the HV looked interested was chatting to me on how Magic Missile cost 0 MP for him (being level 0) but how it did less damage than his physical attack (aka it sucks). Magic Missile for me while not being as effective as my other options, can do decent damage and match my physical attack with an overcharge less than 50%. Yea my magic attack rating is higher, but I believe the spell uses how much MP is in it as well to factor the damage/effect it does.

モンスターのMPバー（青）の量を気づきます。BarrierのスキルはLevel 50以上あるので、MPバーが一番高いのモンスターを殺してみます。
Watch out for the amount of monster's MP. Since Barrier is available from Level 50 and above, try killing the monsters with the highest MP.

Kill the one that will do the most damage to you, it's not necessarily the same as who has the most mp. Haunt does nowhere near the same amount of damage as jiggle to me. Neither does any physical skill (for the most part). Green slimes, and anything else that does wind damage (cows) are usually first on my list. Tentacle monster's skill does the most out of the dark damage dealers, and toddlerguro is high damage as well. Compare to spin attack, claw swipe, squirt and bouip, which do much less to me.

DAMN!!!!!! The monsters on normal are still too fast and too powerful! Please, please, please, PLEASE make them weaker Tenboro. It's getting too frustrating and it's just not how it should be on normal. Please do something about this.

Anyone else having a screwed up HV? Tries to crash firefox when you do anything? Doing stuff really slowly?
