You are correct, not sure why it didn't attach the screen

fixed. you correctly attached the image to the post, just didn't publish it.

when you upload the file, you also need to either attach to the post or embed it. the first option is recommended to avoid horizontal scrolling.

You are correct, not sure why it didn't attach the screen, anyway here are the stats:

Also below are the links to the equipment I'm using, any suggestions on which to update/ replace:

Weapon and shield upgrade would be on the top of the list for me. You can check the Free Shop when it is back open in a couple days, though I'm gonna plug decondelite's store- he has a lot of good stuff for players right around your level, and at really reasonable prices too.

His shop should be able to hook you up with quite a few upgrades.

Guys, it's been like 3-4 years since I last played, want to play again but I'm totally lost. Been reading some things on the 2018 thread (there is some useful tips there, thanks), but I'm still lost. I'm not exactly a newcomer because I already got some equipment and stuff, but without knowledge it isn't much.

Any tips on where to start? What's a good build to follow at my level and such?

Thanks for any help.

Edit:
Someone suggest me to try rapier + shield. Reading the wiki I tried to get the rapier of slaughter, shield of force and heavy armor with power of protection. But I could only find some items that I already owned.

wow, what a treasure trove you got there.
some of us collect obsollete equipments. find them, sell them stuff (at best price you can manage), and use the credit to buy equipments from wts section. but hey, you're low-leveled. Go to FreeShop, they might have good stuffs you can use.

Is there a Yuletide Lottery this year? I can't seem to find its thread...

What difficulty should I be playing on?

What difficulty should I be playing on?

It depends on your equipment and your play style.
But for you level, I think it is quite difficult for you to have a full set of exquisite or above.
I would say nightmare, or hell if you have a good weapon.

Hmm very interesting. Because your gear is both old and of medium quality prefix, the stats are highly random and if lucky could actually be better than current gears. For example your Exquisite Rapier of Slaughter has damage, penetrated armor chance, burden, interference, and condition all in the legendary range. I would suggest to keep using that rapier for a long time until you can afford to replace it with at least a Magnificent Rapier of Slaughter.

Even at my current level 316, I am still using a level 207 legendary rapier with quite similar stats to your level 205 exquisite rapier. Go to TygerTyger's thread in WTS and ask him to do a free Item World on your rapier, which will make it much stronger. Item World works totally differently than it used to when you last played.

In my opinion people over-recommend power armor, especially after a recent game patch. You may consider looking for high quality plate armor too, whatever you happen to find. Check freeshop and the bazaar, but make sure the levels are close to yours.

Let's see, extra stuff you asked for that I have in your level range:

Exquisite Plate Cuirass of Dampening, level 206, 1000 credits
Superior Ruby Plate Sabatons of Deflection, level 213, 500 credits
Superior Jade Power Boots of Slaughter, level 198, not sure I want to sell it though

I was going to offer a few shields but upon closer inspection, your weird old shield is also far better than anything I have in your level range. Before you consider selling it, I would recommend that you use that shield until you find something clearly better.

Wow, awesome, thanks for all the tips. Sent the rapier to Tyger for IW, pretty nice of him to do that.
I will be on lookout for better armor and will be sure to consider plate armor too. Can you send me those two you wanna sell? I will take them, thanks.

I have a side project I'm working on because the whole FRD+Attack Speed build looked fun. To that end, I've been bidding on cheap shade armor/slashy things in auctions, and have nabbed a few pieces.

Katana (will need to soulfuse to wear soon)
Wakizashi (Can equip soon)
hat
shirt (Can equip soon)
gloves (exquisite; need replacement)
gloves generous donation
pants (will need to soulfuse to wear soon)
shoes (free soulfuse on arrival; lottery)

Obviously lacking in Shadowdancer suffixes. Those tend to be expensive.

For the weapons, I am thinking Overpower won't be too useful, due to reliance on FRD for lots of stuns. Once I can equip more pieces of this set to benefit from the agile prefixes, I'll have to see how much attack speed is needed, but I am anticipating maybe Swift Strikes won't be vital. Wakizashi adds a ton of speed, and 10% from agility makes it pretty easy to hit 30%. That leaves Fat+But as ideal IW'ing goals, but I'm probably not too keen on spending tons on reforging.

All that leaves is some hopefully not too expensive upgrades.

On to the questions!

1) Considering this is something of a "budget" set, how does it look so far?
2) What kind of content would be most suited to this build? I am guessing SG's would not be, as the big selling point of the build is the 2h area effect of the Katana, which suggests I'd prefer lots of squishier targets like non-SG arenas.
3) Any play tips for the build from those experienced in using it?
3.1) Like what kind of buffs are most important (thinking haste, shadowveil, heartseeker, protection, regen, SoL)
3.2) Any deprecating spells that ought to be used frequently?
3.3) Skyward Sword/OFC/Spirit Stance would compete with FRD for Overcharge. Forgo them?
4) Anything else to keep an eye out for?

gloves (exquisite; need replacement)

speaking of which, most important stats for shade armors are DEX and AGI. check for your next armor to have those two, if it's a Mag.

afaik you should still need a bit of Swift. not sure how much, but i'd bet on at least 3 or 4 levels. i guess they may be better on the waki, but i may be wrong.
apart for that, yep, go for butcher and fatality.

1) Considering this is something of a "budget" set, how does it look so far?

doesn't seem half bad, at least to try.

2) What kind of content would be most suited to this build? I am guessing SG's would not be, as the big selling point of the build is the 2h area effect of the Katana, which suggests I'd prefer lots of squishier targets like non-SG arenas.

why not? just use skyward sword to stack PA on them and/or imperil, right after FRD.

frankly speaking, i never tried it, so i may be wrong. however i'd say be careful about your OC bar. by the time stuns expire, you absolutely have to have either low amount of mobs or enough OC for FRD, and FRD available at every new round. if you need to cast new spells, do it at the end of the round - even at the cost of wasting some rounds.

3.1 basically all, like every non-1H style. *maybe* you could drop either spark or spirit shield though
3.2 imperil for SGs, maybe Silence for very powerful mobs
3.3 i'd drop spirit stance, but skyward sword may still be useful - at least for SGs

Hi, now I am able to complete all Arena of IWBTH, and some of PFUDOR. But it takes too much time to do these on high difficulties. Sometimes I fail because I do it too fast, innate SoL can't even save me.
It's pretty hard to find good weapons of my lvs on WTS, but I rly want some good gear, especially a rapier. Would completing them on high difficulty worth the time (I can do End of Days on PFUDOR, but I don't know if it worths the time and risk of failure (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ..), and increase the chance I get good gear?
Or shall I count on trophies to get a good rapier of slaughter? high diffi Arena and Trophies, which one offers more chance of getting good gear

It's useful if you are powerful enough to kill ALMOST all of them with only one frd or when you use skyward sword instead of frd (less than 6 monsters)

2) What kind of content would be most suited to this build? I am guessing SG's would not be

Right, don't use it on those arenas

3) Any play tips for the build from those experienced in using it?
3.1) Like what kind of buffs are most important (thinking haste, shadowveil, heartseeker, protection, regen, SoL)

I use those that you mentioned, but the most important are SoL, regen and haste.

3.2) Any deprecating spells that ought to be used frequently?

Weaken once in a while

3.3) Skyward Sword/OFC/Spirit Stance would compete with FRD for Overcharge. Forgo them?

I use Skyward sword whenever I have more than 200 of overcharge, but since you are going to need two or more frd per round I think it would be better not to use any of them

4) Anything else to keep an eye out for?

After using frd don't do anything that isn't killing monsters. Use weaken instead of frd if there are just a few monsters (or don't use anything. Overpower is useful here). Try to hit some monsters before using it

Are there scripts for counting how many rounds are left to complete a dungeon?

Wakizashi adds a ton of speed, and 10% from agility makes it pretty easy to hit 30%.

Where are you getting that 30% number from? Like why would you need 30 and not more? are there diminishing returns on attack speed after it gets to a certain amount or what?
