@aiwotorimodose lol genius

Thanks! this was extremely helpful, also i have to admit i love killing with a twohand because of the domino strike effect xD. As for my stats i focus only a little bit on strength and endurance but i always pour a couple into dex/agi/int/wisdom here and there since the mana becomes useful (Cure) and hit accuracy. Thanks again for all the help (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)! Also wow... didn't know there was a trading system at all....Bazaar has been ripping me off D<!

one more thing that may be of use some aren't aware of: scripts.
http://ehwiki.org/wiki/HentaiVerse_Scripts_%26_Tools

HV stats is a must; adds some really useful features: highlight battle log, turn divider, tracks your drop and battle information, and allows you to save the information from scanning monsters, so you know their resistances/weaknesses after seeing em once.

In addition there is a alternative to "Base Stat Display":[userscripts.org] Hentaiverse Equipment Comparison
That ethothex mentioned in his long post which is better in my opinion.
I don't know if there is a point to Autoshrine anymore as that functionality was incorporated into Hentaiverse in the latest patch.
If you are using custom fonts and things are stacking on top of each other there is also a solution to that using Stylish add-on.
Someone really should add it to the wiki.

I wondered if there's some sort of chart in existence that shows at which points and how strongly stats like parry, block, and mitigation are curved? I've done some experimentation by equipping and unequipping stuff and apparently penalties are introduced as early as after 20 points for block and they seem to rise as it reaches higher points.

It isn't called penalties, it is adding things in multiplicative way.

For example, if you have 2 shield armors with block chances of 10% each, the final block chance won't be 20%. Instead it will be

Blcok = 1 - (1 - 0.1) (1 - 0.1)= 19%

However, burden and interference and simply added together.

Unfortunately there's no graph because I can't draw 5-dimension pictures.

Uh, your example doesn't make sense...

Can I have this as an equation with [first item's block = x] [second item's block = y] and such? I think I get it now, but I'm not sure.

Currently I'm seeing it as [block = 100 - (0.1x - 0.01x) (0.1y - 0.01y)], is that correct?

It may not make sense, but that should be the truth in HV.

Edit: It's 'Block from equip'= 1 - (1 - x1) (1 - x2) (1 - x3) (1 - x4) (1 - x5), where x1 to x5 are the block chance in % for each equips separately.

It does make sense, each piece is counted separately.

The full evade equation is here
http://ehwiki.org/wiki/Character_Stats

There are also a few other worth knowing equations on that page if you're curious.

It does make sense, each piece is counted separately.

I kinda wonder: Say... you use 5 Shield armor, each with 10% block, which in the character screen should be about ~41% block.

Now, does the game actually calculate each block from each armor piece like how avoidance works (i.e. block chance = 10% x 5 rolls) or is it use the summed value of 41% and roll once? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

Just wondering, I don't really need an answer; such answer means nothing, anyway... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

Probably the latter.
Statistically you get the same results, and doing 5/6 separate rolls is just a waste of time/resources.

Ummm... Can someone tell me how 2h compares to DW?

Edit2: im an idiot for not reading the previous page...
Anyways, since magical mitigation is harder to get for melee, should i consider getting armor "of warding", or whats a better for full heavy/ DW melee?

For low levels, things to consider:
2h = aoe damage w/ domino strike. Usually worse accuracy, and little defense, save kill em faster. Shatterstrike will kill most things that round for the 100% OC.

DW = best accuracy, parry boost to off-hand. Able to diversify procs. Does well versus few enemies but not large groups. DW axes for best damage, but no defense boost. Club in main hand for stun is another popular option.

Good for 1 on 1s versus bosses/legendaries/gods/etc. Biggest con is can only kill 1 guy at a time. 1hand has weaker damage, but w/ counters can potentially get more than 1 attack a round. With DW, no matter how high your attack is, it will take you a minimum of 9 turns to kill 9 guys, and obviously that's unlikely. (not counting frenzied blows). Needs spirit stance + OC for the damage boost.

From experience, in the end, Killing stuff faster is a better defense. In Item world of @100 lvls, when facing continous groups of 9, have no problem on hard w/ 2h, but barely eke out sometimes w/ dw on normal.

I had an easier time DWing arenas til i got my 2hand prof up though, like in my lvl 80s, since you start off with only a few foes, and increase at set intervals.

Is there anything that mitigates crits? I tend to lose to gods when I get randomly crit for all my life.

Weaken/Bewilder?

Failing that, spirit shield/Spark of Life

Silence prevents enemy from using >any< abilities, not just "magic" spells. I doubt that you could get killed by a single melee crit so Silence might be the way to go, until you'll grab SoL/SS at higher levels.

should I bother doing RL or IPU or just save my tokens of blood for FSM?

spirit shield and kept your HP over 50%

well, at least get the clear bonus for total of 150k.

I dunno but I'm doing them in order. You'll probably eventually want to do them just for the credits anyways. EDITEDITEDITEDITEDITEDITEDIT!!!

Also, just cleared IPU.

Took 276 rounds.

I somehow gained .03 DW proficiency in 276 rounds. And its only at 16.96.

Then I realized that I was so focused on keeping my buffs up and stuff that i didn't use a single dark infusion >.> Not that I really needed it though when IPU missed half its attacks and the other half CRITS for 150 damage.

any melees got a quicker way to melee IWBTH FSM?

i'm taking 1000 turns and it gets annoying... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/faint.gif)
