QUOTE(reality_marble @ Dec 17 2017, 13:47)  LotD, Quartermaster and such are nice but it is the law of diminishing returns. The higher it is, the lower the gain per credit spent. ┐( ̄∀ ̄)┌ I stopped training them until because 1M to raise each allows a lot of forging to be done...
True. But in the end a single item can the allready enough to pay off everything you have invested into Quastermaster. So i would suggest, train it as long it cost an amount of credits you can easy afford to. And the longer you have trained a specific level, the higher the chance it pays off.

Indeed (o^▽^o)
But being able to do two arenas instead of one doubles the chance of equip drop. Not even max quartermaster doubles it.
By not raising it now I could make a set that let me grind way faster, thus I can grind more each day, and it pays in statistics ヽ( ・∀・)ノ_θ彡☆Σ(ノ `Д´)ノ

And that is the reason why i said an amount of credits you can easy afford. Because if you spend more, it will feel like you just wasted money. And i know that feeling. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

For getting max exp and possible drops, should I go for the second half of the arena matches or should I go from the first match to the last?
Or should I just go through the last few matches of the arena?
Also, I have a question about the FOC. Do I need 21 DIFFERENT figurines or can I have multiples of the same figurines? For example, I have two Applejack figurines, but only singles of several others.

If you do every arena anyway. The sequence you do them doesnt make any different. 21 different figurines or no OFC. And just because this question was asked just recently, yes if you want to keep the OFC, you have also to keep the figurines. But if you have one double, there are some shops in the WTS where you can trade a figurine you have two of, with another you dont have.

Thank you, for the figurine advice. I'll make sure to hold onto any artifacts I get then. The arena advice is also helpful.

That is was an uncle is there for. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif) And you are sure the arena advice does answer what you acutally want to know? Because i am a bit unsure about what you actually want to know.

QUOTE(gianfrix94 @ Dec 17 2017, 20:27)  If i were to forge my Legendary Fiery Rapier of Slaughter ADB, how much ADB would i gain for every level of forging? check the spreadsheets in my sig. also, reverse calculations say ADB 93%, Parry 0%. as always ADB is a bit off when Butcher is involved, but not bad.

Wait, it says the original ADB was 13%? Because i'm sure the ADB was 94-95%. I did the IW/Forging personally, ~80% is quite a big difference. Did i understand it wrong?

I once upgraded my exquisite armor's physical damage to level 5 with 5 Actuators and other materials but when it reached level 5, the other stats no longer needed actuators to upgrade them.
I'd like to ask if it's the same for other qualities too, such as Magnificent?

You wasted actuators. These things are to be used on Mag+ equipment. Do yourself a favor and salvage that Exq when you're done with it, so you recover 4 of the 5 actuators.

You actually recover actuators? Damn! I thought Catalyst and rare material are not salvageable. Damn! Brb, gonna pump my middling power pieces with actuators.

Ah dunno. I never salvaged forged equipment, so I thought that you recover 90% of everything, minus the catalysts.

it is. 90%, rounded down. in the particular case of bindings, 0.9 * (forge_level - 5). fragments and catalysts excluded, since they are explicitly meant as credit sink. https://ehwiki.org/wiki/The_Forge#Salvage
