QUOTE(as013 @ Oct 21 2017, 02:06)  Even with prof perk, fully forged staff and level 50 prof boot, my prof factor is only 0.647. 14 more to 0.68. So it finally comes down to base prof. My base prof is currently 430, so 17 under my level. What strategy should I take to finally make my mage build playable? Wait a little more until I get everything forged to 10 then start spamming fests? Spamming IW now?
Have you consider moving your elementalist cloth to head piece, leg piece, or robe? I don't think pushing shoe will cut it.

I spent 1M for the piece and some more for IW so there's high chance I won't change it. I will go with Adept Learner and some prof farming

QUOTE(as013 @ Oct 20 2017, 21:21)  Just the way I prefer lol. Brute force always works Maybe I should start training Adept Learner. I left it at 120. Assimilator seems much more expensive compared to AL
That's why you're not gaining prof, because your exp gain is low prof scales with the exp you get

Well, just so you know, without reaching cap level, even with assimilator training maxed, your base proficiency will never reach more than 12% of your level. You will have more luck doing that if your level is lower. But start from lvl 400, it's just 11.8% max, and then tappering off. I simulate.

Is the set the one in the sig, right? 430*1,1+115,4+89,02=677,42 677,42/437-1 would be 0,55, no? (・・ )

You're looking at the wrong items eh? 426.091*1.1+142.17+109.67=720 437*1.68=734 so I need 13 more to reach 439 to get 0.68 factor

It's because the items are soulfused, the prof will scale to the viewer's level. But your problem should fix itself once you train Adept Learner, get a pair of exp perks and a few levels of Assimilator. And lots of grinding, of course (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

Most definitely! Balance between prof cotton and phase is so that you can kill quickly. Too much cotton made your attack spells, although irresistible, too light. Too much phase, in the other hand made your attack powerful, but rarely get through the mobs' defense. Man, I'm bored.

The damage is fine it's just the fact I need to heal every 3-4 spells. Which I guess could be fixed by maxing out the upgrades on my armor, but that's so expensive (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) This post has been edited by TygerTyger: Oct 21 2017, 09:29

I don't know how to do ItemWorld exactly.
I can't understand the mechanism of IW so I haven't tried it ever... sad.
What's the Potency? and What's advantage of reforging?
Help me plz. my English sucks. sorry about that.

If you manage to complete Item World, you will gain a potency. Your weapon can gain 10 potencies. Each one will make your weapon just a little bit stronger, about 2% stronger.
There are different kinds of potencies and they are gained randomly. Some people only like certain one. If they get a potency they don't like, they will reforge to start the weapon over. It wastes a lot of money. For now, don't worry about it.

This might be useful: https://ehwiki.org/wiki/Item_WorldBasically, you pick an item (weapon/armor) you want to improve, and you fight a set number of rounds (like in an arena). If you beat all rounds, your item will get Item XP. After you've gained enough Item XP, the item will level up and gain a random potency. For example, an armor piece can get extra fire resistance (even if it originally didn't have the +fire resistance prefix). Reforging means resetting the Item XP to 0. It's useful if you're aiming for a specific potency and are willing to reset XP until you get the desired potency. The link has more thorough information.

Basically at IW10 you get a new elemental strike (⌒▽⌒)☆ If ethereal weapon you get random one, if other weapon you get void

He says he cannot read English so we must explain it to him here. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/blush.gif) To gain that, complete Item World again and again until you get all 10 potencies. The last one will give you that, or something like it. However, to finish Item World is hard, and you may die. Good luck! (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Just one more question, I saw someone's weapon which has Elec + Void Strike before... How can I make it? as a demo, you can try with infusions. go on forge, enchant. it'll last only 15 minutes, but you may see its effect at least.

good reading knowledge, but low on writing. lack of self-confidence. pick one.
