Can anyone remind me what was the last id of the pre-0.82 equips? Or an easy way to find it? I'd need it to differentiate the level assigned pre-0.82 from modern equips, so that I don't buy crap at a higher value than I should.

77m

roughly 67M. possibly 67.1, but not sure.

Dark/Holy if you plan to do many SGs (with a personal preference for Dark).
Cold otherwise, since it can be paired with Fire Spike.
the other prefixes should be pretty much the same.
try to avoid Ethereal if possible and if you don't plan to play DW with the same rapier.


[edit]: btw, your rapier seems solid enough to me...

How should that work? DW has different IW needs. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

I see a tempest in this week auction with better parry and damage but don't know if mine is better or that one. For arenas I'm going all mage already so 1H is only for grindfests. Tbh I don't really want to change. 10% materials + catalysts + auction price + IW seem a lot. Am I better off spending credits on a slaughter armor?

personally i found that an overall OP6 is already good enough. so one may think about going OP4~5 on offhand waki/shortsword (depending on what Fatality level he wants), tolerating an OP1~2 on mainhand rapier and bam - an all-purpose rapier.

furthermore, it's not like OP1~2 hinders 1H gameplay too much. Overwhelming Strikes isn't on all times, you know.

not worth the pain of re-forging and re-doing IW, imo. keep yours.

I'm looking for the exact value, not an approximation. Wasn't there some script that had it hardcoded?

dude, the amount of items generated in one second is enormous and the amount of infos we had was scarce (even worse now). we came at that value by aproximations. i know SmartSearch uses a 67.18M value, but probably it's a bit higher than needed to be on the safe side.

what do you need that for?

Well, I was thinking about possibly making a script that changes the equip popup's background to warn that it's a pre-0.82. Would be very useful at least for me. But since smartsearch uses a hardcoded value, I suppose I'll refer to that one.

ah, ok. maybe more useful for starters and less for old farts, but why not?

my two cents, i'd personally see it as a function to be implehemented into Toolbox. so, i'd suggest you to put it in a form that would be already ready to be incorporated into it. would it be possible?

Just a quick url parse then css change is enough I guess?

CODE
if (document.URL.split("/")[4] > 67E6) {
    document.getElementById("equip_extended").style.background = "red";
}


This? I don't know much JS and CSS

*shrugs* don't know, i'm not fond of these things. i just thought it could've been incorporated sooner or later, so at this point...

of course, decon can do it the way he deems appropriate. if such a simple solution is enough, well...

Yes I was thinking about a simple URL parsing to then change the background property, so barely a few lines.

Slaughter. None of the others even come close.

Balance is still a decent second, bringing in critical damage, and is actually comparable with Slaughter at low levels where accuracy isn't maxed out, according to the comparison we did twenty pages back.

Also for rapiers, the variance in attack damage due to stat roll is greater than the other weapon types. A max ADB rapier of balance/nimble has about the same damage as a minimum ADB rapier of slaughter, so if you get one make sure to check the stats.

After clearing the arenas I feel like doing every day, I've been trying out different things with the remainder of the 24-ish stamina I use each day. I've been trying to clear the Item World for my legendary shortsword (80 rounds total), but I keep getting murdered for my efforts.

I've brought the difficulty down to Hell. Yet I still keep running into the same problem. Around the 40-60th round, I just can't keep my spirit high enough with spirit potions and spirit draughts, and inevitably I get sparked one too many times and die.

It already feels like a bad idea to try to IW with difficulty so low, as that decreases the PXP earned and makes the journey to IW10 many times longer. It feels like if I do that, by the time I get it to IW10, it will no longer be useful as an upgrade due to having leveled up myself.

Should I just abandon it and clear more arenas each day instead, earning more trophies, artifacts, and tokens?

In my opinion, since Arenas and Random Encounters give you more EXP and credits, as well, trophies from Bosses and SchoolGirls, as well clear bonuses, as well tokens - both profit-wise and exp-wise it is better to make them instead of Grindfest or IW. =)
However, IWing your weapon to unlock second strike is good and clever idea and you should do it asap.
Have you soulfused it? Soulfusing doubles all received PXP.

yes, a Lmax non-Slaughter is comparable to a Mmin Slaughter, ADB-wise. or a mid-tier Exq.
if one picks a non-Slaughter, surely it's not for its ADB and is quite willing to give up that ADB boost for something else (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

reaching void strike (or iw10 random elemental strike) is one of the best upgrades you may earn, so it definitely may have a meaning trying to pursue that. you may want to try your luck with Tyger here: https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showt...p;#entry4960087
