I only had the first 2 on rat pack done when I was lvl 75, everything above that went to training what I was going to use on a daily basis. that meant finishing rat pack.
@smilejb If you still have ROB 1st clears still there, you should use it to finish rat pack. I suggest if you don't have ROB 1st clears to lean on, use the arena 1st clears until you can finish it.
You still got: lvl 110 Longest Journey 14000c lvl 120 Dreamfall 16000c and the normal 1000c clears inbetween and you should have enough to finish it.
Right now my priority is upping the archaeologist and Scavenger so I can get to the point of getting 1 or 2 artifacts every run in CF.

The 2 for battling are: Stats : hereQB2 : hereQB2 is probably the more useful one if you got spells you want to change on the fly.

yea, I still have 2 ipu and fsm. Just need the tokens of blood for them.
I figured that once I do those, I'll have all auras and all pat rack. (hopefully).
I also have more than enough ability boost so I stopped training that. Doing adept learner but thats pennies next to everything else. (mostly when I don't have enough for anything, I do that).
When they are done though, focusing again on archaeologist/scavenger/luck of the draw/ quartermaster.
And when I am happy with those, assimilator. How many points in archaeologist do you think we'll need to average 1 artifact per cf? Mine is at 4 already and I still barely ever see them. Although I did just get them twice in a row. (very unusual and rare but not complaining).
And I was thinking of also selling the artifacts so I could try to get some hath. the autocast slots do really seem worth it but thats a lot of hath to make it worthwhile. Along with the hath only auras.

Most of the high lvl players got Archaeologist at 6 and Scavenger at 30+, so upping Scavenger as much as you can will be fine for being a low lvl. I can cheese CF on easy and farm more artifacts than some high lvl are getting atm, was strange to hear that. I want to up my stats with +20 as fast as I can so I don't have a nagging need to do it later. Almost all of these +stats in red are gotten within the last week.

Your going to see the page loading speed drop with Stats, the more stuff you want to modify/track will slow things down.

Damn, thats pretty good right there. Did you save all your artifacts?
I pretty much just used them right away and I have a total 7 in the red. I mostly got crystals from it >_>.
My scavenger is only slightly more than half that. So I guess its not bad for my level.
I'm also saving all my trophies. Figure that once I finish the ring of blood, I'll start trying to paper mage. It may be a mana drain until I can get those autocast slots but being able to blast mobs faster makes me think that I might be able to get more artifacts for my time. Which in turn, if I sell them lets me get more hath. Which lets me get my autocast etc. It would also help to level faster.
I do want that plus 20 to all stats from artifacts but I figure that unless I can control luck, it will just come eventually.

The +stats from Artifacts get rarer the closer you are to maxing them. So your goal of doing this: QUOTE(trikon000 @ Jan 13 2012, 02:39)  Good, since I am getting like 4-5 artifacts a day, I should maybe max the +20 stats in a month or 2.
is highly unlikely.

Nice. I think I got 2 lvls today too. Not really sure. (was watching the football game). All I got was 1 artifact today. Wasn't doing cf though. Just the arenas which I'm still not done yet. Just trying to make sure all of the harder ones were cleared at heroic. Wanted the health and mana restore even though I needed to use items just to beat them.
Can't wait till I get a mace with void damage though. Most of them I can pretty much one shot on heroic but those damn giants and such. They are not going down fast enough, and I keep missing. I swear, my accuracy is 86 and I'll still go 10 times in a row of missing.

I might be able to do it with several hundred artifacts all shrined at once. Being unlikely is not the same as impossible.

There's no difference between saving up several hundred artifacts and offering 5 a day. (Other than you will probably level up a lot in the time you save them, thus having more AP and in turn, get less AP from Artifacts)

At lower level, raise your primary attributes evenly. WIS=END=AGI=STR=DEX>INT should be a good reference. You'll need WIS for mana to cast spells. 2. For armors, it depends on whether you want to be a light melee or a heavy melee. For light melee, pick some Kevlar of protection with good mitigation, and use mace as weapon. For heavy melee, pick some plate of protection with good mitigation. You may want to try to use bleeding weapons instead of mace, since you move slowly and stun will wear off easily. Pick your equipments at WTS threads.

I couldn't find it in the old posts so here's my (probably already answered earlier) question: does white aura boost cure (with holy prof)? Also, is it a good choice as the first expensive perk for poor, lvl100+, electric/holy mage?

Health restored = (base_health / 2) * (1 + curative_proficiency / 200) * (1 + holy EDB / 100)
Whatever you got in holy EDB.

Bewilder should be enough to help you survive magic attacks from Bosses, but Legendaries and higher will still probably kill you in one hit with them. It also usually becomes obsolete, at least for a long while, once you learn Silence at level 110. At this point there isn't much you can do to protect yourself, so if you fight Ring of Blood enemies frequently, I say just go for it. You can always do a reset later to get those AP back. Against Legendaries you'll probably want to use a Scroll of Life regardless of whether you have Bewilder or not.
