QUOTE(decondelite @ Sep 4 2017, 12:13)  7) Don't use your ISP's DNS. Use Google's or OpenDNS (which I highly recommend). I did experience huge lag issues in the past due to that. Don't forget to set it up for both IPv4 and IPv6.
i can understand using OpenDNS (i do it as well), but isn't setting them for IPv4 enough? eventually, what are their IPv6 addresses?

assuming my t/s would be permanently 0.700 to 1.3 because i have almost toatlly given up on my ping i appreciate all what decondelite and All Might said but my pc is just and old windows vista on a 10yr.old laptop whose backlight is destroyed i use an external monitor for the display there arent so manyh browsers that are compatible with win vista in the first palce my maximum downlod speed is 1mb/s(torrenting) and i only use pocket wifi because im poverty in real life and i live in the mountains we dont have utility poles/ column that has landline dsl fibre internet access the road to our home isnt even surfaced with cement i live very remotely from our underdevelpoed city so aside from what decondelite said that i should get leg gears and forge them what are other ideal things that i can do considering my slow t/s? what about innate arcana 4 & 5 will it help me or i should invest on others? and coming back to my question earlier:and i have been using this rapier http://hentaiverse.org/equip/128589139/3a7aa11106for over half a year already, is it ideal to look for a new one?

you may try switching to mage. t/s will be roughly the same (if not a bit slower), but number of turns should be considerably lowered. it would require a certain initial investment though. QUOTE(jplshejeser @ Sep 4 2017, 14:17)  what about innate arcana 4 & 5 will it help me or i should invest on others?
depends on your playstyle. 1H is fine with IA3. other styles could take advantage from IA4 QUOTE(jplshejeser @ Sep 4 2017, 14:17)  and coming back to my question earlier:and i have been using this rapier http://hentaiverse.org/equip/128589139/3a7aa11106for over half a year already, is it ideal to look for a new one? you may start looking for auctions, yep. a mid-tier Leg one shouldn't be too expensive

Nah, it's not enough. I did have DNS issues roughly 2 months ago because apparently my connexion to HV seems to be sometimes in IPv4, sometimes in IPv6. Setting my IPv6 DNS fixed the issues. Their IPv6 are the following: 2620:0:ccc::2 2620:0:ccd::2

hmm... every now and then my connection fails and doesn't restart until i change DNS, could this be related to the fact i set only IPv4? [edit]: just set them up and it still "no connectivity" on IPv6 section This post has been edited by Scremaz: Sep 4 2017, 14:50

Both connectivities have to be enabled in your network card, of course. If IPv6 is not enabled there, it can't possibly be used. Furthermore, there is a general will to simply stop supporting IPv4 in favor of IPv6 (I suppose it will even reach future versions of Windows)so that companies stop using IPv4 due to laziness/why switching to IPv6 if IPv4 still works. There's a technology called "dual stack" that allows to pick IPv6 whenever it's possible, IPv4 otherwise. Long story short, disabling IPv6 on a computer is bad, and you should feel bad.

Hi ! I was browsing in the WTS/WTB section, and looking at an item link I came up with something I didn't excpect (and honestly, I didn't even suspect it could be possible). How can it happen that an equipment has all stats and PABs at zero ?
Here is image capture :

Ahh, I hadn't notice it ... but now I'm wondering how can condition go to 1. Did the player kept it equipped forever without repairing, possibly while loosin more and more battles while the equipment degraded more and more ? This is the only way it comes to my mind, thou' I cannot imagine someone doing that - to what aim ?

I think I see. You mean just battling not to reach the end of the arena (or IW or whatever) but only to elevate some proficiency, possibly using whole equipment sets that would have been bazaared or scraped anyway ? And without using any scroll/potions nor repairing, to avoid any cost. Interesting strategy, but why now it wouldn't benefit no more ? This post has been edited by mundomuñeca: Sep 4 2017, 18:55

You have a non-soulfused equip without good Item World potencies. You don't want to bother doing endless IW's to get Butcher/Fatality. So you send the item to the IW service. You get it back with Butcher/Fatality, as requested. With COD, because that service isn't free.

because it was used mostly to farm prof staff, afaik. the weaker your attack, the higher the number of times you have to whack mobs, so higher chance to earn prof. now you earn prof only from one action per round, and without even casting spells, so... not sure why he used it on an axe though.

Random question about PAB bonuses from artifacts. Quoth the wiki: QUOTE The maximum bonus to each attribute is increased by 1 every 10 levels gained. This is capped at +50 per attribute once a player reaches level 491. So at Level 451, I can potentially get +46 for each PAB?

I haven't shrined enough to reach any sort of cap yet. The highest I've got is +43. I'm only asking because of that line in the wiki. If Level 491 = max +50, then logically Level 451 = max +46, but I thought I'd get confirmation.

Wow, I never knew about that feature. Thanks for pointing it out (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) And yeah, it says +44. So I guess I'll just be using that to gauge the PAB bonuses in the future.
