Does the Bazaar Item Inventory restock? I want to know if Infusions of Divinity are automatically restocked by the system and what time (and timezone) exactly does the Bazaar restock anyway?

No those items won't restock. If there's any, it's because players are selling them to bazaar.

Why not?

I did have a decent set of plate though they're under-level. But the recent change to IW might motivate me to lvling it. Also, I'm too lazy to grind the prof... And the current light set seem to work fine for now, so meh... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

The main reason, however, is that I still do not have a good weapon to go with it yet. Thing might change once I get such weapon.

Can we have an article (on wiki or by a new thread) on how to decide the overall quality of a piece of equipment of specific types (daggers, katanas, oak staffs,...). I see we already have the equipment ranges article but that's still not very clear. For example, can we have something like this:

1. Dagger:
a. Of slaugter:
_ Good: base damage >= x, base accuracy >= y, etc...
_ Average: ...
_ Poor: ...
b. Of focus:
...
2. Club:
...

Of course it will take many time and effort to make but I think once finished it will help us inexperienced players know how to judge a piece of equipment better. I recently got a bunch of plate and kevlar armors and most gone to bazaar because I don't even know whether they're worthy or not.
I'm don't have much money to spare, but I can give 2 haths to see this article come true.

How is it not very clear? The closer to the maximum, the better the stat is.
Or do you want to know what stats matter most?

@LangTuTaiHoa

How to have better judgement on equipments?

what stats matter most -> probable, not very difficult to do

stating what range of stat is good to use -> almost impossible. There are adjustments across patches. The wiki page has proved that.
Besides, it will have too much impacts on the market. I personally can't bear that responsibility.

Well, maybe something like that. For example, what matters most from a power armor of warding, and from one of protection, or of the ox,...?

Well on second thought, maybe you're right.

I have a question about spiritual proficiency:

Does it make a difference in damage, or is it just essentially an offshoot of forbidden just for soul? In other words, will I notice any difference in damage since I already had max magical profs?

Nope.

I know this is all guesswork, but I gots another question. I remember seeing something in the patch that bt and iwbth has a 5x chance of getting a tier 2 or 3 equip, but was wondering if you guys had any guesses for the other difficulties? Did the random battles a couple of times on iwbth and got potions and crystals >_>.

Doing arenas now on heroic as opposed to my usual normal. So far got 2 plate armors 1 shade, and one shortsword. (one of the plates is of protection so I guess that is semi good). And all are fine except for the shade. thats average. (oh, almost forgot, I locked it as soon as I got thinking it might be alright, got some shield armor too).

All that info is just so you can do your statistics and crunch your numbers and what not. I'm thinking tomorrow I'll do it on a harder difficulty.

But yea, if you guys already know, I'd like to see what would be worth my time. (obviously iwbth would be best but I can only do the first 5 on that difficulty). But if nintendo has the same chance as heroic, might as well do the easier one for its speed.

How do you get more infusions to be able to farm FSM?

I'm currently sorely lacking in the infusion department. Apart from buying from other players, are there any other reliable sources?

Nope.

OMG...*facepalm*... how did it turn out that way. WTH is wrong with Equipment shop Helper. I actually had to unequip all to get the correct links...

I'm crying with laughter. A set of clothes pretending they're kevlars (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Thank you, varst. I feel like a retard now... Glad it gave you a good laugh though ( ・ω・)


I re-uploaded the images and correct the items' link:

Err... is Re-gen that good? I tried but didn't find it very effective.
And do you think I should change to heavy-melee? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) cost-effective and all...

Its strength is base largely on your curative prof ... Is it good? Certainly!

TBH I have no idea how well it will work at low level... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) But you can always try it out. Don't sweat over it though; your current armor are ok.

When I got that Kevlar set, I went to the Arena at Normal difficulty, cast Protection and found out that the mobs can't do sh*t to me! (they deal like 1->20 damage or so) And I was like "Mwuhaha, wassup you stupid mobs! you aren't even scratching me". And I tend to finish off the ones with high MP so they can't do special attacks.

But maybe that's gonna change when the mobs get stronger soon enough. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

i have a heavy set, couple points higher absorb, +10% or so phys mitigation, and probably much better damage type mitigation (save crushing maybe). Of course the burden/interference is about 80% higher. And that's only with some proficiency to lower the burden. (mana cost for me is 140%)

Heavy armor is only +str and +end so no agility/dex. Your HP will probably go up 200 pts or so. Your evade will likely go to 0. With only parry to avoid damage, I had to supplement w/ some shield armor.

I'm gonna be looking for kevlar too, but as long as you get the hang of it, you can manage the mana burn w/ plate.

mathematically, regen is more efficient than cure, ie it heals more hp per mp cost (unless you're holy specced mage of course). I use it 90% of the time. Only use cure when taking a big hit, or need to get out of red asap. You'll need to up your prof to see the effects though, as regen gains amount cured, and # of turns healed (for every 10 lvls of prof)

On higher difficulties, even heroic, doing a random encounter, I'll still eat a boatload of damage in the first few turns if I get 9 spawns. Our numbers are comparable, so I suggest you try the later arenas on hard; I don't have any problems, ie can get through using one potion only if needed, and double the crystal drops.

ether don't use them on FSM, grind 1000's of rounds to find some or just buy them from a player that has a few 1000 to sell.

Does grindfest still give less xp than the other battle types?
Actually... did it ever? I stopped playing for a long time.

And do you think I should change to heavy-melee? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) cost-effective and all...

It all depends n your playing style/weapons.
Heavy melees are better with scythe; increased protection simply outweigh the evade loss at lower level
Light melees are better with mace (or estoc at high level); at higher level, with your natural evade from AGI, that could go better.

It doesn't mean that heavy isn't useful at higher level though. People can still beat BT Trio with scythe and heavy armor.

Grindfest/Crysfest now gives 100% EXP. IW will give a bit less depending on equipment's quality.

Yay, I managed to do EoD 1-49 on IWBTH. But it took forever; I had to Weaken everything (and in some cases, Blind), and ET like mad. I'm not sure I understand what I'm supposed to be doing on this difficulty yet. Either I need a better strategy or I'm beyond the limits of Freyr.
